Product review (2 stars): he placed it and it did not fit as good as the original one
i bought this because my friend, a washer technician, told me I needed one.  he placed it and it did not fit as good as the original one.  now my door shuts hard because of this new one. I have to hold the door shut in order for it to lock so the washer will run.  pay the extra money. buy from whirlpool and not a knock-off. get the real thing for a more perfect fit.
