This is the exact replacement for my "defective" Whirlpool Ice Crusher/Bucket. My Whirlpool Gold refrigerator is less than two years old and I noticed some white clumps floating in our drinks. I picked one of the clumps out of my drink and found when I pressed it between my fingers, it was a white powder floating together as a clump. I checked the water coming out of the refrigerator door and it was clear, so then I checked the ice. That was the problem! Turns out, the white plastic "sweeper" that pushes the crushed ice/cubes into the chute was grinding the bottom of the ice crusher/bucket into a powder and dispensing it along with the ice. I contacted Whirlpool to see if there was a recall. No recall. They offered to send someone out, but made it clear it was not a warranty issue. $$$ They connected me to a parts distributor that wanted $150 something for the part and then shipping. I found some other more reasonable options online and then found Amazon had it for under $118 with Prime Shipping. It was packed well, the assembly was wrapped in bubble wrap in a box within a box with shipping paper. I simply washed the bucket, let it dry and then set it in place of the old ice crusher/bucket. Works like new. I just hope it lasts.I didn't give it five stars, but only because I suspect it will have the same issue after a short amount of usage as it looks to be a genuine "Whirlpool" part. Any issues I have are with Whirlpool and not Amazon! I plan on hanging onto the old parts and if this one wears like the original, I'll replace the auger, auger screw and add a nylon washer under the sweeper to keep it off the ice bucket bottom. It's not like I have half a dozen kids grinding out ice all day long. This is clearly a Whirlpool problem and I'm just glad Amazon has this part!

2 out of 5 stars I had to return it.

It looked like what my old one was but didn't fit. Great value, wish it would of worked because it was a great deal.
