W11158804 Whirlpool Dishwasher Silverware Basket

The Dishwasher Silverware Basket is an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) part specifically designed for Whirlpool dishwashers. It fits securely in the lower rack, holding various utensils like forks, knives, spoons, and small kitchen tools. This basket keeps items in place, ensuring they are thoroughly cleaned and preventing them from falling through the dishwasher rack.

Whirlpool manufactures products for several brands, including Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. They also produce items for Sears-Kenmore and Ikea.

Over time, the silverware basket can become faulty due to wear and tear, mishandling, or exposure to heat. These issues can lead to broken compartments or a basket that doesn't hold utensils properly, resulting in ineffective cleaning or misplaced items.

Common signs of a faulty silverware basket include:

- Silverware not staying in place during the wash cycle
- Difficulty organizing or separating utensils
- Visible damage or breakage in the basket compartments

This OEM part is compatible with various brands, including Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears.
