Got 7 years out of a Samsung that still works and will be used as a spare in the garage, but the ice maker stopped working and I literally can't even.

I need reliability, function and style.

Trying fixing the ice maker. Could be a small fix.

Cheaper to repair than buy new.

You can literally replace an ice maker a hell of a lot cheaper than an entire fridge

I would resort to using ice trays before I bought a whole new damn fridge.

I have a Maytag that is about 2 years old, and while the refrigeration portion works splendidly the lights have stopped working completely in the freezer, and the lights in the fridge are very dim.

Googled said problem and most fixes look to be hundreds of dollars.

Yeah that's not happening. A flashlight is cheap.

Ice makers being mechanical, are typically the weakest link in any refrigerator.

Whirlpool makes very reliable appliances for the most part. I have a 15 y/o side by side that has only needed a thermostat replaced about 5 years ago

Napolean has said not to buy a refrigerator with only two letters in its name (GE LG). He gave a light recommendation for Frigidaire. Keep in mind this was a few years ago and brands merge, get better/worse.

My frigidaire ice maker broke so I called them and they wanted $450 to come out and guarantee to fix it.

Found a 5 foot tall 70 year old Jewish guy on Craigslist that came out last week and fixed it for $70 with parts. Felt guilty

He’s worked for Conns repair for 35 years and does this on the side and he lives 10 minutes from me.

I’m waiting for another appliance to break so I can shoot the shite with him again

They all suck. Get the extended warranty because it will likely break during the warranty period.
