Product review (5 stars): Lid switch: maybe second one will last longer than 6 mths (see my update at bottom)
I'm staying neutral (but see update at bottom) on the rating for now because...
I purchased this great fitting lid switch in October 2011 (from SupplyEdge via Amazon). Six months later, April 2012, the switch would not click with the lid down/up. For the great price I'll try again with one more order of it and will report back as to how long the second one lasts (I'll put it on my calendar to review it again 6 months after the install date of it). Hopefully, it'll last a lot longer than the first. I'm going to give the first one the benefit of the doubt that I MAY have slammed the lid. Though I know I was very mindful that a slammed lid would kill any switch. We'll see and hope my second lid switch order will outlast the first order and, hopefully, the remaining years on my Whirlpool washer. It should, with care. Stay tuned for an end of 2012 update as to how the second switch from SupplyEdge behaved.

4/17/12 update: SupplyEdge customer service was great after I informed them of the above issue. I upped my rating to 5 stars (from '3') as their response to help me with this issue exemplified OUTSTANDING (& prompt) customer service (does anyone remember, way back when, when GREAT customer service use to be the norm?? Well, with my case it restored my faith). Nice job SupplyEdge to make things right for my issue above.
