Samsung is no better. Mine is three years old and the ice maker started jamming up after the first year. It is a poor design. Every two weeks I have to clear the jam of ice cubes that prevent the new ice from dropping. Sad thing is, before it started I recommended the same model to my neighbor, yes, his does the same thing, even after he paid to swap out the ice maker.

All the ice makers I've had with freezers came with an adjustable water inlet to limit the size of cubes. Perhaps yours is off a bit and needs to be adjusted down if it is making cubes too big for the icemaker to clear them from the tray.

Check u-tube videos for info on how to do it, but it is very simple to do.

Well really all new fridges suck it's why I replaced my 2012 Amana with a 1998 Sub Zero. My old Sub zero is controlled by a $20 timer.
I can fix anything on it and on built in wood front fridges you can't really tell the age.

Energy Star ruined fridges.
They don't last and they have too many options.
I see no need for anything outside an ice maker
