Amana Refrigerator Water Reservoir Kit 12002023

Took forever to arrive, arrived crimped

The part was on back order for several months, yet I was charged for the part as soon as I placed the order. When the order finally arrived, it was placed in a simple shipping bag, no protection at all. The part in question is plastic, with molded tubes on either end. One end is MUCH longer than the other and was wrapped around the rest of the part, tight enough that where it joins the main body it was crimped. Considering how long it took to arrive and the fact that it was damaged arriving... I am not holding out hope that this replacement part will last as long as the one I replaced 6 years ago.
