Product review (5 stars): Perfect replacement for original equipment switch.
When my washing machine broke, I expected to pay hundreds of dollars to fix it.  However, I decided to watch a YouTube video, and I learned how to take the machine apart for myself, which allowed me to quickly diagnose the problem as a broken lid switch.  Thanks to Amazon, I found the appropriate lid switch for a lot less money than an appliance store, and this simple switch probably saved me $200 in parts and labor.  It works just fine in the machine.  The cord is the appropriate length and it's a perfect fit.  It took me about 10 minutes to disassemble the machine, about 10 minutes to replace the broken switch with this working switch and then about 5 minutes to put the machine back together again.  It's been running fine now for a few weeks.  I heartily endorse this switch; it works great as a replacement, it fits, and the cord is exactly the right length.
