Product review (5 stars): It was easy and simple to replace if you have the right ...
I purchased this because my washer was stuck in the wash cycle or the washer was not cycling through any of the modes. The washer that we have is a Whirlpool Ultimate Care II that was using 8557301-A the older revision. It was easy and simple to replace if you have the right tools and are careful to flip the panel over. Our washer is about 10 years old when the original timer gave out so hopefully this will last another 10 years.

The only cons I would have to say are, 1) Price - This thing was $110, a brand new budget washer from an appliance store or a home improvement store in our area are $325ish to $450ish dollars not including installation. 2) As not a prime member using standard shipping it took 7 business days for the product to arrive, most items usually arrive within 5 business days
