My old refrigerator was a side by side and I had it for 20 years, I
replaced the ice maker, once, and I did it myself. Two years ago, George
replaced the ice maker in the same refrigerator. I am happy to get 10+
years out of an ice maker, a replacement for this one is $85 and it is
well worth the price. We drink ice water all day.
