The Frame-Shelf is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is a sturdy plastic frame and shelf that provides organization and storage space inside the refrigerator door. The frame-shelf is designed to hold condiments, snacks, beverages, and other small food items that need frequent access. It assists in keeping these items within easy reach and in view while also preventing them from toppling over during opening and closing of the refrigerator door.
Causes of a bad frame-shelf can be normal wear and tear from frequent usage, accidental damage due to dropping heavy items, or stresses from overloading the shelf's weight capacity.
Symptoms of a bad frame-shelf include:
- Cracking or breaking of the plastic material
- Difficulty installing or removing items due to a poorly fitting shelf
- Warping or bending of the frame over time
This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.
