Is this a true whirlpool product or after market product?

I bought from "Buy It Now Store" - a marketplace seller, and did not receive a genuine Whirlpool item. The listing is definitely for a Whirlpool filter, but I think what you get depends on who you actually buy it from. I am going to return these. (And I will probably avoid marketplace sellers on this item from now on.) I assume if you buy it directly from Amazon, you will get the Whirlpool item.

I have a genuine Whirlpool filter box in front of me; filters not purchased here. The box says Whirlpool. All over the box is the Whirlpool logo and product info. This is NOT a Whirlpool factory original - it is an aftermarket product. CAVEAT EMPTOR. You really thought for such a cheap price you are getting original factory product??

I concur with Quirkywriter that this is a true whirlpool product. My box said ""Whirlpool...Manufactured by SEMK International USA" also and I am extremely pleased with this product!

I bought a box a little while back for my AP45030K, and they were the real thing.

The product I received on November 30, 2013 is definitely NOT a Whirlpool product. It consisted of four filters folded into a Ziploc-type plastic bag with a sticker that reads: "BULKFILTER BRAND Replacement for the Whirlpool 8171434 K Large Air Purifier Carbon Pre-filter" and a smaller sticker that reads: "BULKfilter.com ..."

I feel certain that it is not after market. It was in a nutone box and fit perfectly like the original.

It comes in a box labeled Whirlpool so I assume it is. But like almost every other commodity today it is actually manufactured in China by a Chinese company.

Shirley...I'm going to save you some time. I've owned both the WaterBoss 700 and the Whirlpool 44,000 grain water softeners. It's simple...buy the Whirlpool and avoid the WaterBoss. The WaterBoss caused extensive damage to my finished basement when the resin tank failed (within its warranty period) and flooded said basement. The Whirlpool has required nothing except refilling salt and has performed perfect.Buy the Whirlpool and do not buy the WaterBoss.

I purchased one several months ago. It was not in a Briggs & Stratton box so I'm pretty sure it was an aftermarket unit. It had some very slight differences, but the mounting holes and dimensions were the same as the original. The bottom line is that it worked fine and was considerably less expensive than the price one of the local repair shops was asking.

I would try to find the actual part number for machine you have and search for that. If the site or other sites like Whirlpool say that this is the replacement part for the number you have, it probably is and is worth ordering from Amazon. These are standard pumps for Whirlpool, Maytag and others that have been retooled to decrease the chance of coins breaking the housing as I understand.

My guess based on price and feel of the product is that it is aftermarket. I was not happy with the quality.

I believe so. In the description it states by whirlpool. I have had no problems since installing it myself.

I would say no because Whirlpool is a separate corporation from 3M. I have seldom seen companies work together and make this type of product interchangeable.

It is hard to say it is a genuine KitchenAid part as it comes in a parts bag labeled Whirlpool Corporation. Parts bag says made in CN.

I would check if the part number for the whilrpool is listed as a replacement or compatible. That's what I used when I checked for my Refrigerator

I looked at the water pump carefully to try and determine the manufacturer, but couldn't tell. The pump looks like the equivalent of a factory part. Tight, same impeller design and same solid drive roller. After installation and several pressure (hot/cold coolant) cycles everything is tight and leak free. Engine cools at least as well as prior to replacement (95F day)

Hi - I have no Whirlpool products - but I have used this on three different 'white' appliances and it looks fine with each. It blends to cover the small areas that I need to have blended and even if it isn't a perfect match, it's not noticeable unless someone was really scrutinizing my appliances.

As another responder indicated it is a Moen part and it comes in a Moen package. I tried one of the other brands that indicated it is a replacement for the genuine Moen part, but it did not work well. Once I replaced it with the New Moen part my shower works perfectly.

This is for old fashioned top load washer. Probably up to around 10 years ago. They can be branded as GE, Kenmore or Whirlpool but the way I understand it, they all made by the same factory. If I am not mistaken, they are all made by Whirlpool.

Well is under Whirpool OEM, so I would say it is and it was exactly like the one I removed...
