Product review (5 stars): The part was a perfect fit.
I'm always concerned about buying parts from Amazon.  Not all sellers are quite accurate when they list compatibility.  There was a cheaper switch available, and it looked the same as this one, but we chose this one because we have a Kenmore washer.  Whirlpool is one of the manufacturers that make Kenmore products, so we weren't surprised when we looked up the part number and it was a Whirlpool part.  This description had "Whirlpool" in the title and the exact part number in the description.  The cheaper one was vague.  I've gotten parts from Amazon before that sellers said were compatible that weren't even close.  Because of the specific descriptions Think Crucial posted, we chose this one.  We received the exact part we needed and had my washer running again without a problem.  I'd definitely buy from them again.
