OEM part for my Whirlpool refrigerator that was reasonably priced and a DIY repair that fixed the issue, saving me hundreds in a repair bill. Very happy with my purchase! Thank you!

Good part, OEM quality. Purchased a temperature data logger for 10 bucks and it tracks dead on the set temperature with no issues. Resolved my refrigerator temperature control problem and is clocked perfectly to the control knob setting on the refrigerator dial unlike the cheap knockoff that I bought before this one. Very happy with the quality. Was more expensive than the knockoff but worth it. The knockoff went to the trash. Don’t buy the low quality item , buy this one instead.

OEM thermostat at good price. When troubleshooting refrigerator determined this may be the problem. Started trying to find local person to repair but could only leave messages but no call backs. Started watching YouTube videos on troubleshooting and replacing and decided to try. Started checking Amazon for replacement. Found several that ad said OEM but at higher price and found several that said compatible at much lower price. Came down to reviews. Came across this one that stated whirlpool OEM at about half the cost of others so decided to try. Arrived quickly in sealed whirlpool logo bag with whirlpool part number on bag. Once removed and compared the two the only difference was spade terminals were a little different but not a problem. Installed and worked. Saved the cost of repairman and refrigerator working properly again.

Product on time and did work. A note is this has side by side connection instead of top bottom connections which may cause confusion on power connections. It probably doesn't matter which way it is connected or I guessed correct.

Unit fit ok but had to disassemble and start over when I realized I had to utilize the tubing over the existing bad unit. Really, they couldn't supply one?No directions, utilized U Tube.Struggling adjusting temperature, seems to jump around when you try to do fine adjust. Still trying to find best place.Good news fridge is running. Question why it needed replacement, I'm 76 and never had any of our units burn out a thermostat.
