The service man said that he replaces about 5 a week, that he has the same model refrigerator and he bought a free standing ice maker himself because of the problems.


Has anyone else had this problem? Any suggestions?
YES! We have the same issue! We think this icemaker is the absolute worst! I buy my ice by the 20lb bag at Publix. I still let the icemaker fill, and use those ice cubes to cool or blanche foods. Most of the time, it's just a big chunk at the bottom of the icemaker.
