Didn't work in my dryer
The quality of this product seems fine. The manufacturer now recommends this part number to replace broken latches on my dryer. There is a selection of 'strengths' in this package (20,22 and 25). The problem is (as others have stated), these latches don't hold the dryer door shut. I tried matching the strength of the clip with what broke in my machine to no avail. I tried all of the other strengths, and they all allow the dryer door to pop open with wet clothes - thus stopping the drying cycle. We have had to resort to taping the door shut or pushing something up against it. Sadly, I don't think this is a good replacement for the latches that came on the door in the original machine. Hope you have better luck than I did.
Perfect Fit
My dryer wouldn't stay closed and I looked for a latch that would fit. I found this one and decided to go for it. It was a great choice. It was easy to install and I didnt have to take many parts off my dryer. Now I dont have to place things against my dryer door to keep it closed.
Whirlpool Dryer Door Latch
This part fit my old Whirlpool Dryer perfectly. Installation is a breeze: Just snap out the old catch assembly with a screwdriver and pliers and snap the new part back in place for a secure fit.
It's important the dryer door closes tightly so clothes will dry quickly. When the door does not push the emergency stop button on the dryer's face frame, it's time for a new door catch/latch assembly and this is the part you need to keep your old Whirlpool "spinning"!
