UPGRADED W11162443 Refrigerator Crisper Drawer - Upper Drawer Fit

In this review the UPGRADED W11162443 refrigerator crisper drawer is evaluated for owners needing a direct replacement for the upper crisper in select Whirlpool and Maytag models. The bottom line: this replacement is best for someone who wants a durable, food-grade bin with a working humidity control that restores storage function without modifying the fridge. The reviewer found installation straightforward, fit accurate for the listed models, and the humidity-control feature effective at keeping produce fresher compared with a damaged or missing original drawer.

Key Features

• Exact fit for upper drawer: Sized at 5.7 x 16.3 x 9.1 in to match the second-from-bottom crisper position on compatible Whirlpool and Maytag refrigerators.
• Humidity control: Includes a humidity-controlled system to help maintain appropriate moisture and extend the life of fruits and vegetables.
• Smooth sliding rails: Equipped with smooth-sliding side rails that restore the original drawer movement and ease of access.
• Durable materials: Made from food-grade, impact-resistant plastic intended for daily use and long-term durability.
• Direct part replacements: Cross-references common part numbers such as W10899435, PS12347929 and AP6327285 for easy identification when replacing the bin.

Who It's For

This replacement is for owners of compatible Whirlpool and Maytag refrigerators who need the specific upper crisper drawer that sits as the second drawer from the bottom. It is especially relevant if the original drawer is cracked, missing, or the humidity slider no longer seals, and the priority is restoring original function without professional service.

Shoppers who should look elsewhere include owners of fridges that use the top or bottom-specific part numbers (for example the top drawer W11162448 or the bottom W11162446) or users who require a universal or cosmetically exact match to an uncommon model. Also check compatibility carefully against the listed model numbers before purchase.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Good fit for the specified upper crisper position and many listed Whirlpool/Maytag models.

Cons

• Not compatible with certain part numbers and will not fit top or bottom-specific drawers, so users must verify fit.
