Maytag MDPS6124RZ0 lower dishwasher rack
The Maytag-branded exact-model parts page for MDPS6124RZ0 lists W11778050 as a fitting lower dishrack. The part detail clarifies that it is the bare rack and does not include wheels, so an owner should check the existing wheel assemblies before ordering rather than assume a full rack kit. The page does not establish an exact serial cut-in or a model-specific original-part crosswalk. A lower-rack listing is not evidence for the separate upper rack, third-level utensil tray, filter or basket.
Safety boundary
- Confirm the full model label before selecting a part.
- Remove dishes before normal rack handling. Use the model manual for removal details and stop if the rack, wheel, or track-stop mechanism binds.
- Check whether rollers are absent/damaged before ordering because the rack-only part excludes wheels.
- Do not remove or service the pump, filter system, wiring, water connections, tub, door panel, rails, or other components under this guide.
Compatibility requires a direct model listing, explicit supersession, or equivalent manufacturer evidence.

Compatibility rules
- The Maytag-branded exact-model parts lookup names MDPS6124RZ0 and lists W11778050 as a Maytag lower dishrack that fits this dishwasher.
- Whirlpool OEM part detail describes W11778050 as the rack only and says it does not come with wheels. Treat rollers as separate pieces and verify their exact fit before ordering.
- The Maytag product-family page identifies MDPS6124RZ as a third-rack dishwasher, but that suffixless family page is not proof of W11778050 fit; the complete MDPS6124RZ0 parts lookup is controlling.
- Fit and availability are separate. Exact-model and generic part-detail pages showed conflicting inventory states, so current stock is not established.
Never assume
- MDPS6124RZ without the final 0 or another engineering suffix is covered.
- W11778050 includes wheels or the wheel assemblies from the old rack.
- A generic wheel cross-reference or a similar-looking roller is a verified fit for MDPS6124RZ0.
- Lower rack fit implies compatibility for the upper rack, third-level rack, silverware basket, or filter.
Exact model and lower rack
- Appliance: Maytag MDPS6124RZ0 dishwasher. The family product page calls MDPS6124RZ a third-rack dishwasher, but exact-model fit comes from the full suffix lookup.
- W11778050: Maytag lower dishrack, rack frame only; wheels are not included.
Check the separate wheel assemblies
A lower dishrack roller is a separate component that supports the rack as it rolls. The W11778050 description says the rack ships without wheels. This packet does not provide a model-verified roller part number or wheel-installation instructions; confirm the wheel using the full model in Maytag's current parts lookup and follow its Owner's Manual.
Stock and coverage limits
The Maytag-branded exact-model parts result showed W11778050 as in stock at a displayed $239, while the direct Whirlpool OEM part detail showed it on order at $245.70. These conflicting retailer snapshots leave current availability unknown; neither status changes the exact-model fit claim. No serial split or original-part crosswalk was verified.
