Product review (2 stars): O.K. at best, cheap asian knockoff!
For our five dollars we really didn't ever expect to get an OEM part (like the one shown in the photo), and, well, we didn't, we got some cheap asian made knockoff!.. It might work in a Dryer in an emergency till you can get a real OEM part!.. Shipping wasn't slow but, we needed our Whirlpool dryer fixed ASAP and just couldn't wait any longer for this part to arrive, so we ended up buying a real ten dollar OEM Whirlpool part from a local appliance parts store a few days before this one got here!.. The $10 one from the local parts store came in an official Whirlpool logo package and has black ink printed numbers on it's back, we're now using that part! The $5 one we were shipped from here is in some plain no-name package with only a part number on it, we will hold onto that for any future in case of emergency use only! , We're glad we didn't wait for this part to arrive since it ended up just being a cheap knockoff, we dislike ever using cheap knockoffs when it comes to electrical or electronics for any length of time if we can help it, usually for no longer than a day or two till we can get real OEM parts, as we're pretty sure the asian made junk probably does not, and could never pass any UL standards, since most third world asian countries that make these junk knockoff parts still have villages without toilets or electricity, and have no idea what electricity, Washers, Dryers, or safety standards even are, and are just so glad to finally get those big old bags of out of style worn out clothes that we here all threw away fifteen or twenty years ago, which they oddly seem to think are the latest recent fashions! LOL ... Save your $5, let Chan-Ho and his band of pick-pockets have your old 1980's track suits and 'Where's the Beef?' T-Shirts, and spend an extra $5 and get the real McCoy parts faster, locally! LOL
