Whirlpool, a company known for producing appliances across multiple brands such as Amana, KitchenAid, and Maytag, among others, also provides products for Sears-Kenmore and Ikea. This particular component is an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) control knob intended for use with Whirlpool ranges. It is offered exclusively in black, following the discontinuation of the previous model featuring a red dot. The knob is tailored to fit a double flat shaft, with dimensions of 1-3/4 inches in diameter and a 1/4-inch projection. Crafted from metal and plastic, it is compatible with a variety of electric ranges. Although its appearance has been updated, it retains full functionality and compatibility with select Whirlpool and Roper ranges.
