Product review (5 stars): Very happy I made the decision to but the whole unit ...
I don't have a whirlpool--I have a stackable GE washer/dryer-- and this fit perfectly.

We had replaced just the screen last year and it was already distorted.  Now that I'm comparing the new plastic top to the old,  I realize we were missing a holding tab which ultimately meant the screen would pop up and get distorted.

Very happy I made the decision to but the whole unit over just the screen.
