Exact fit for original, Works great
This fan motor pushes cold air from the freezer compartment to the fridge compartment. My original GE freezer fan would fail to turn on, causing the freezer to stay cold but the refrigerator to NOT be cold, as there was little air exchange between the two compartments. Replacing this fan motor is the lowest price first option to try while troubleshooting. This replacement motor has been working great for the last few months since I installed it. Quality seems identical to the original. It is just as quiet as the original, and the connector snapped together with the original wiring harness easily. You can pull the old fan blade off and hand-press fit the old fan to the new motor shaft. The motor sits on silicone vibration-damping bushings and is not directly bolted to the freezer. Instead, a bracket fits around the motor and bushings. It would help to have a nut driver or small socket set because not all of the bolts have screwdriver slots. Youtube has lots of good demos.

Perfect fit
This fan motor is a perfect fit in my Hotpoint refrigerator and replacing it was a minor task. Can't rate the durability since the motor was recently replaced. It looks just like the original.

Perfect for GE
When I needed to replace the motor on my GE (top freezer style) fridge, I looked for a DIY option rather than hiring an expensive repair person. A few YouTube and part number searches later, I ordered this product. After ensuring I had all the right tools to do the job, I tackled it. Start to finish the job took me under 20 minutes. I've had the part installed for months now and it gives me no issues. So glad this is available for DIYers. Makes the repair affordable!

Saved the fridge from the landfill
There's one thing that was really strange about this project, but I'll come back to that.I was ready to an old fridge on the curb. I'd noticed a whining sound - like the sound of bearings going bad - coming from the freezer at times. Being a procrastinator, I did nothing and then one day found that the lower half of the freezer was ice cold and that the food in the fridge was spoiling (no surprise, as it was about 55+ degrees F in there).I had no trouble finding a decent walkthrough on youtube (important to find one for your specific model/product family), and the whole project took me about 35-45 minutes. What took longer was moving everything into the primary fridge (this one is just for backup/overflow).Here's the weird part:For a couple weeks after the fan replacement, I thought the problem must be coolant or something else, because the freezer was only getting to 45 degrees and the fridge only to 50*. I thought "oh well, I'll put it on the curb when I get around to it, but I might as well continue using it for wine." I'm glad I was low on wine (only 3-4 bottles), because I opened it about a month after the fix and the fridge was at 30F (freezer was at -5). two bottles (lying on their sides, of course had frozen enough to push the cork almost all the way out. Luckily, only about a 1/4 cup seeped out from each.I'm still scratching my head trying to figure out why the delayed resuscitation and the only suggestion that makes sense (found online) is that it somehow got stuck in a defrost cycle. I also DID fiddle with the coldness dial. I'd had it set to coldest for the longest time, then I backed off to midway, because, well, because it was trash at that point, or so I thought, so it's possible that the control is faulty and 'coldest' somehow is registering as 'off'. (please comment, if any of you know). If I were more adventurous I would set it back to 'coldest' and see if the problem comes back, but hey, I'd rather have a working mystery than a broken explanation.*Wireless thermometers I bought - these things work like a charm - I was able to monitor progress without skewing the results by continually opening the door to check the old analog thermometer I'd had in there for years. I highly recommend these:https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07B9N71VC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Slightly noisy..
This worked and was a heck of a lot better than the bad (original) part I removed. Being much cheaper than an original manufacturer part it seemed like good value. Easy enough to fit. However it was a bit "whiney" for a few days and I was a bit worried that something may have been wrong with it, but it since seems to have settled down...

Easy to install.
I like the fact the part comes with a lifetime warranty. Also that the plug match up perfectly and I was able to lock it into place.

Appears to be an exact OE replacement part
The condenser fan in the 10 yr old office GE refrigerator started squealing on start up. A good whack on the side of the fridge usually quieted it down but that fix didn't last but for a couple weeks. I found the model number of the refrigerator and then I found the manual and fan part number online. Amazon had what looks to be the OE replacement part at 1/3rd the price of the office GE parts warehouse and on PRIME too. The swap was easy to do. You will need a flash light or work lamp, #2 Phillips head screwdriver, 1/4" and 5/16" nut drivers, small flat blade screw driver and small needle nose pliers.The hardest part was to pop off the tension ring from fan drive shaft in order to remove the fan. It can be done with careful prying with the small screw driver and needle nose pliers. I won't go into the swap procedure because it is fairly self explanatory for any handi-person. Remember to unload the freezer...you'll need all the freezer as work space and turn off the fridge and UNPLUG THE POWER CORD FROM THE WALL! You don't want that fan motor to energize up while you are working on it. Take pictures with your smart phone as you go so you have a reference on how to put stuff back.

Easy repair
Freezer was making a terrible noise. After the hard hit to the side stopped helping, I googled the symptoms and found that it was the evaporator fan motor. Found the part, ordered it and received it the next day. Fix was quick and works perfectly now. If you are not a service person, review the installation on YouTube. This saved me time figuring it out on my own. Simple repair with a minimal degree of difficulty.
