Product review (5 stars): perfect fit and function--and upgraded component.
Metal gear where the original one was plastic--hopefully it will last longer.  The LG washer has been awesome under hard use for several years--until the rotor's plastic gear lost its teeth.  Easy to replace--even for someone who has never had the case off before.  Perfect fit.  Hardest part was getting the washer out of the built-in cabinet with the dryer on top.  Several months and hundreds of washes later and it is still working great.
