Product review (1 stars): Maytag, Whirlpool and Kenmore are awful companies. And buy two because it's going to fail again.
UPDATE  Ordered this part the first one we got was DOA the second one we received in November it broke by the end of January how such a poorly made part got past testing I really don't understand.

The part sold here is the part I needed, but Maytag, Whirlpool and Kenmore are awful companies. This is a poorly made part and it should have been recalled. We have a three year old washer and we have had to replace this part three times now. With how bad this part is it's hard to believe it wasn't purposely designed to fail. In the future I will not buy anything from these brands and also recommend other  not.  On a side note don't bother contacting customer support they won't offer you any help All they did was tell me I could have a tech come look at it for $500 which is almost as much as the price of the was
