Product review (5 stars): I fixed my machine today, saved about $250
Our Kenmore washer is about 11 years old and the door jammed shut and wouldn't release after trying everything.  I could hear the latch trying to unlock, but it was too tired.  Eventually, I broke the tab on the door too while attempting to open.  Luckily that was only a $5 piece.  I received this part today and installed in about 5 minutes and we're back in business.  For $50 and 5 minutes this sure beats a repairman charging $300.  Not sure of the longevity of this part but it appears to be about the same quality of the original.  Make sure you watch the youtube instructional video.
