We at Help Owl don't like to refer you back to the merchant if we can give you direct help, and we avoid referring you to a chat resource because many folks don't use chat. Your question stipulates that you ordered the basket you want, but questions whether that has been changed as you describe. The answer is: that's unlikely. To find out for sure, ask Whirlpool. See the contact information here: https://www.contacthelp.com/whirlpool/customer-service.

Hope this is useful. Please don't forget to click the Accept This Answer button if you do accept it. My aim is to provide reliable helpful answers, not just a lot of them. See https://www.helpowl.com/profile/Odin.
