## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect Match.
*by L***S on May 28, 2025*

It's like an OEM part. Solid and it just works.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Performs well!
*by W***R on October 8, 2024*

I typically have a capacitor backup in case one is going bad or goes bad on my compressor(s). My heat pump guy said I had an old one in service that was going bad, and I needed a capacitor. I told him I had one (this specific capacitor), and he said it is it is exactly what he needed. He tested it, and it was functioning well and installed it. Having a spare capacitor like this on hand saved me a little money.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Better late than never.
*by J***R on May 30, 2025*

Arrived late but showed up good part undamaged
