Item is an official part and exact match for my 18 inch dishwasher.  I really don't like how the design means it is almost guaranteed to fail at some point since the contact point between this latch and the dishwasher, that basically gets moved/jarred back and forth and slammed on when you close the dishwasher, is made of plastic and over time that will get weak or brittle and crack.  However, since it is an official part and designed exactly the way the original part was designed and it works I give it 5 stars.  It cost me $20 to fix it myself instead of the $100+ it would have cost just to get a service technician out to my house.  Only took about 10 minutes as well.
