Product review (5 stars): Easy way to save on an easy repair
Parts arrived on time and as ordered.

I used this to repair an old Whirlpool washer model LA9480XWW2. The parts listed here (285811) actually are the same parts recommended by Sears, and are listed as substitution parts to their part number 3351001 at parts.sears.com (note you can use my washer part number to get to the agitator kit).

Tips:
1. White silicon grease is called for when installing this part. You need it to grease the seals. You can find it here, or if you are lucky they may have it at Lowes. I found mine at OSH (little plastic package with what looked like 5 pill capsule, each filled with a drop of grease). You only need a drop or two, no need for a monster grease gun.

2. When installing, If you choose not to break off the tabs as instructed make sure you get the top assembly to snap down flat. For me one of the tabs put a slight angle in first attempt and then the agitator did not end up spinning right. Took it back apart, bent the clip a little and everything was fine.

3. If you are searching for a Whirlpool Washer Stylemaster 4213632 rev B you are looking at the wrong model number plate on your washer. The model number is not on the lid itself, but below the lid just above the bucket, on a silver plate. The Stylemaster number appears to be a part number for the lid itself.
