Wrong part received. No offer to fix situation
I have a Frigidaire dishwasher. I ordered a product labeled Frigidaire BASKET SILVERWARE 2 - Part# 154749502. The silverware basket that was pictured on the PartsIPS website when I ordered the part was the correct silverware basket and would have worked as a replacement to my broken Frigidaire dishwasher silverwate basket. What I received from PartsIPS - listed on the shipping box as an "Electolux Basket Assembly, Silverware, W/2" and on the packing slip inside it is listed at Product "WCI 5304521739" from "Pick List 3363712" - however, was not what I ordered and did not work as a replacement basket for my dishwasher. I called PartsIPS, and all they would say on the phone is that I would have to email them with any issues related to the product received. Over email PartIPS wrote that: "We did mention on website that we will send out substitute part,” which was a lie, as the product page did not use the word substitute, and PartsIPS has made no offers to send the correct part or provide refund for my purchase. Second, even if it did say "substitute part" - which it did not - the part sent me is not an acceptable substitute for the order. For example, when compared to the Frigidaire item I am replacing (which was shown in the PartsIPS product page picture when I made the purchase), the received basket is not long enough, it does not separate into three pieces, the plastic separator between the first two and last two segments of the basket is too high and on one level, it does not have as many basket segments to hold silverware, it is an Electrolux (not Frigidaire) part, and it does not fit well in the Frigidaire dishwasher. All those deficencies makes the part sent to me NOT a substitute, and certainly not an acceptable substitute, for the Frigidaire silverware basket, and NOT an acceptable replacement part for a Frigidaire dishwasher.
