All appliances are the same, lucky to get 7 years out of them. LG French Door fridge lasted 4 years. Did research, Miele is the only one I found that claims to give consumers 20 years use. Convenience out weighs price for me.

We have a Maytag and the ice maker motor broke down last year, which makes it 9 years. They don't last as long as they used to.

Is your frig ice maker freeing up and have to be defrosted about every 2 weeks and if this what you got fixed, what did they do? The last time I called (in warranty) they told me forget it, they are not going to replace the frig. So, I get the hair dryer out when there are no cubs in the top door ice maker, spend 30 minutes setting everything up and de-icing the whole unit, and then mopping up the water.

Appliances
I always get a little chuckle out of these posts about appliances. Everyone seems so intent on replacing the original GE products as soon as possible when purchasing or building a home. At least GE was the brand used when our home was built in 2001.
Our condo in St Pete, for 17 years, came with all GE brand appliances and when we left there in 2001, the same appliances were still in working order with no problems. Our appliances in The Villages home are GE, installed in 2001, all original, in good working order with never a service call. And I will add here, I would never replace my washing machine with the agitator with the newer machines that don't have it....... my daughter has the newer one, takes forever to wash and clothes don't appear as clean as with the "old" agitator type". Just my humble take on the subject.... |

Also, that sealant needs to cure for hours. I'll let you know what parts are delivered. Why should I wait until later in the year if the proper parts are not sent?

After retiring, I worked at a store that sold appliances. Anyone that was looking at a Samsung appliance was warned away from buying it because of their extremely high failure rate.

This entire thread is based on Samsucks icemakers that are located in the fridge section MOSTLY on the French Door models which is what the OP is about although by now you'd never know it. The topic has already gone way off course which isn't surprising so it will really get confusing because it has nothing to do with the GE stuff The Villages supplies. Good luck and keep good notes, names, times and dates on every call you make and every visit you get.

Everything else looks great (just make sure he installs it all and seals it). I guess it is possible your model year has the updated board. Mine was manufactured in May 2017 and the boards were definitely different. Manu date is on the sticker inside the fridge. Don't let him leave without sealing it or he's just wasting your time. The warm air from the fridge (especially when you open it in the summer) gets into the ice maker through the openings (see the video I posted) slightly melting the ice then it refreezes into a solid block. The circuit board was changed to update the defrost cycle. Not sure how he can (properly) seal it without you leaving it off for a number of hours and fully defrosting and drying it. I guess worse case you could seal it yourself when he leaves.
