Nice quality part. Shipping was fast.
Good value, fits good. Wrinkled in shipping. Let it sit for four days. Weighted down to lay flat. Two weeks after installation, there is a spot in the upper right corner where it does not seal. Ice is still forming slowly. I am hoping that it will eventually seal itself.

It worked!
Found the part for a very old refrigerator (not an easy task on other websites I tried), got some helpful advice regarding replacement in the comments section, completed repair solved all issues with the freezer door; huzzah!

Perfect replacement.
The gasket came boxed folded in half. I removed the gasket from the box opened to full size and let it adjust to the house temp. The next day i removed the freezer door (4 nuts per side attached to the slide) and set the door on the counter and aligned the new gasket to insure i had it set correctly related to the old gasket. I unbolted one of the short sides completely and loosened the nuts all around the other sides so i could lift the backing and release the old gasket. I inserted the new gasket under the side i completely unbolted and insure the gasket was properly under the side and into the grove in the gasket that matched the grove on the side and then bolted down only the center bolt to hold the gasket. I pulled the gasket onto each of the corners of the backing and insured i had the gasket under the lip all across the on side and then proceeded along the two long sides removing the bolts and raising the edge to insure the gasket was under the lip all along each side. Once each of the long sides was aligned i again bolted the center bolts to insure the gasket remained in place and then completed the last side. I then rebolted all the bolts insuring the gasket remained under the lip and that i did not pinch the gasket under the bolts. Total time with removing the door switching out the gasket and reinstalling the door was about 90 minutes. Perfect fit simple process just time consuming because of the number of bolts. Definitely need socket wrench and need to remove the door to make this project go well. Will definitely order from Part Select again

Gaskets were damaged
Followed the video instruction and it was fairly easy to install. Let the gaskets sit for a day to reshape itself. Started by loosening the screws then removal of the gasket was done. The only hard part was to align the Gasket evenly. Not removing the doors made the install a little more difficult for alignment.
Easy but time consuming. I followed the excellent video instructions on this site and read through all the user comments before starting. I am a handy 65 year old woman who did this alone. I put the gasket in the dryer for 15 minutes then laid it flat for 24 hours before starting. I used a kitchen spatula to release the failed gasket and
... Read more the plastic panel from the freezer door. The old freezer gasket allowed moisture into the insulation behind the plastic panel on the inside of the freezer door. The insulation inside was frozen solid and took several hours to defrost before I could continue, so prepare for down time by unloading your freezer. I used spray foam insulation after removing the old insulation and cleaning the plastic panel. The foam expands 2x so don't overfill the crevices or you will have to carve it out later like I did. It's really messy so wear gloves and protect surfaces. Putting it back together is easy. I used a heat gun to smooth out the kinks in the gasket and used the spatula to slide the gasket in place. I learned the hard way that there are 4 oval shaped openings on the plastic panel (one on each side) that should be screwed in first to align the panel correctly before screwing in the rest of the screws. My 25+ old fridge is running like new again! It's quieter and the blower isn't running as often. Very happy.

freezer door gasket not sealing well, frost build up inside freezer inside door
The ordering was easy, however the installing was very difficult. Screws all around door had to not only be loosened but most had to be removed in order to get gasket behind the lip. We (my 17 yr old daughter and I )unscrewed the top and half way down the the sides and did half and half. The job took us approx 4 hrs. In all fairness
... Read moreneither one of us has every done anything like this and we were very proud of ourselves for accomplishing the task. When the gasket was in place we used the blow drying to smooth the gasket. Probably not anything I would attempt again because of the time committment, however, I was trying to save some money.
Someone suggested removing the door, however, I couldn't figure out how to do that. On the up side, it did give me the confidence to replace a screen door myself. You tube helped me with that. ( I couldn't find a "how to" on how to install this gasket at least not for this type of appliance.

Replacement of torn gasket on freezer door
Last night, I replaced the gasket of the bottom freezer drawer on my Amana refrigerator. It took me about 2 hours.
When I took my new gasket out of the package that it was mailed in, it had been folded and was all twisted. There were wrinkles in the area where the actual magnetic seal occurs. I tried to use a hair dryer to smoo
... Read moreth out the wrinkles but the hair dryer just wasn't getting hot enough. I decided to install the gasket anyway hoping that the wrinkles would just get stretched out.
First I had to remove the drawer which is explained in the Amana manual. I had to remove two screws on the side the the drawer slides and then lift out the hanger for the door. Pulling out the old gasket was really easy but when I tried to push the new gasket it just wouldn't go in under the lip and I was afraid that it would get torn if I pushed it in with a screwdriver.
So I had to remove all 20 or so screws that hold the white plastic retaining liner in and hold the lip of the gasket. Then I had to slide a flat head screw driver in to lift up the liner and break the gluing effect of the expanding foam insulation used during manufacturing. Once I could freely lift up the liner about 1/4 inch, I was able to push the new liner in. The wrinkles were still there, which would have prevented a good seal. Fortunately I had a heat gun which I tested first on the old gasket. This worked wonderfully after the gasket was fully installed and did not melt the white plastic liner.
Once the gasket was installed and all 20 screws were tightened, I discovered that the door had been twisted a little and the left side of the drawer would hit first leaving a gap on the right side. By pushing on the right side some time it would stay but often it wouldn't. So I loosened the screws that hold the door on to the metal hangers that attached to the glides and then twisted the door while I tightened those screws.
The final fix was to tighten the leveling screws so that the top of the fridge leans back. This is recommended in Amana's instructions but had not been done for our fridge. This causes gravity to pull the drawer closed.
I don't mean to scare anyone away from doing this repair but it ended up being harder than I thought.

The freezer compartment was building up a substantial amount of frost/ice because of a leaky gasket.
After the backordered gasket arrived, I took it out of the box and placed it over the back of a kitchen chair and used the hair dryer to get the shipping kinks out of the gasket. After unloading the door of the Freezer compartment, I made a temporary door from a piece of styrofoam board. After removing all of the screws holding the gasket
... Read more and inner panel to the door, I removed the inner panel and took it outside to melt the ice acumulated on the back and to install the new gasket. I removed the old gasket, and installed the new one over the edges of the panel carefully to avoid tearing the gasket and make sure it was evenly laid out on the panel. This installation went easily because I took the time to see how the old gasket was on the door before I removed it. I then scewed the panel with the new gasket to the door of the freezer. Once back on the refridgerator, I used the hair dryer and a dull putty knife to get the edge of the gasket pressing firmly against the refridgerator frame. This last step was critical, because the gasket was distorted by the packing and storage of the gasket in the shipping box. I was not satisfied with the amount of magnetic pull from the new gasket and used Vasaline Jelly to create a better seal with the refridgerator.

air leaking due to failed seals
First unload the doors, and remove each door from the fridge and freezer. I placed the doors on the counter island and removed all the screws from around the perimiter with the battery drill.

How to Install gasket
For model number 59679142990
Hello Etnie, Thank you for the question. You will need to remove the door from the appliance and lay it on the flat surface. Once the door is removed you can loosen the screws around the outer edge of the inner door panel enough to release the gasket. Once the screws are loose the gasket will just pull out of the channel between the inner and outer door panels. Line the new gasket up in the channel of the panels and tighten the screws. We hope this helps!
