Accurate part, good service
Purchased a replacement defrost heater for a 19 year old Maytag fridge. Part was exactly the same as OEM and easy enough to install and is working great. Shipment arrived 2 days after ordering a day earlier than expected and ordering was a simple process.

2nd one worked, lst one arrived broken
Delivery was great, the lst one received was already broken, the 2nd one was great... much better than replacing the entire fridge.
