Product review (5 stars): EASY TASK TO TRY
Installing this unit by your self can save a lot of money.  I just checked out a couple of how to install this type of Whirlpool ice maker videos online.  It turned out being kind of easy.  Just remember that you will need to save the arm from the one you are replacing and attach it to this unit.  It has been running great since I replaced it about a month ago.  The price is even cheaper than a lot of online sites.  Plus most service calls will charge you at least twice the price just for the unit and it may not be a Whirlpool.  That will be on top of the labor cost.  I realized my last replacement from almost a decade ago was a universal replacement that the repair people put in.  If you really fear DIY projects, see if you can have the service people just install the purchased unit.  The price is great and it is from Whirlpool.  But at least give it a try at installing it.  It is very easy especially after watching and installation video.  The out of the box directions are very clear also.
