Failed just after 90 days, not worth the price

I was hoping that it will be good quality and will last long because it was OEM GE part. Unfortunately as I have suspected, it failed after only 3 months. year. My recommendation, do not buy this for this high price. Just stick to the cheaper options as this does not last long either and it is super expensive. I had to buy another one, take the freezer apart again, use a hair dryer to melt all the ice off the coils again, etc.

Doesn't Last

Replaced this and it failed in less than a year, hopefully this one lasts longer.
