Reviews
Perfect fit, with one problem....
The pump was exactly what I needed and works great now. So, why only 4 stars? Because the hose clamps that were included were absolute trash. If you're going to do this repair yourself, get yourself some good hose clamps and save yourself a lot of frustration.

I have bought this part 2 times, wish they lasted longer.
I bought this part in 2021, and now replaced again in 2023. I hope it lasts longer this time.

Perfect Fit
I ordered this pump because the one in our dishwasher quit. It was a perfect fit and easy to install.

Failed quickly
This part failed after two wash cycles. I'd read other folks had problems with this part failing directly from mfg but I ordered a direct replacement with hopes of being lucky. No such luck. Cannot fault Sears on this one as their service was fast and easy.
