Ice maker failure and inside refrigerator freezing
Ryan
2/18/2022
this refrigerator is the second one i have owned of the exact model. first model's ice maker was repaired multiple times to no satisfaction. the ice maker continued to freeze up and not function. we received a buyout for the first unit and was told the issue was fixed with the new models. we purchased the same model to match all the appliances in our kitchen. after 2 years the ice maker quit working, water dispenser quit working properly, the light doesn't illuminate, and there is ice crystals forming inside the ice machine and inside of the refrigerator area. i have had nothing but problems from samsung's customer service. each refrigerator has become defective around the two year mark. i highly discourage anyone from purchasing a samsung refrigerator.

this unit is four years old and we have replaced the ice maker four times. i think it's about time samsung replaced it with a new unit. this model is clearly flawed. we have a lemon law in missouri. i guess i will need to file a claim unless i receive a manufacturer response.

we bought this fridge12/2018, it's now 09/2021 - less than 3 years old and i'm having to buy a new fridge today. i feel completely ripped off. our fridge before this lasted more than 10 years and still worked great, we just wanted a bigger/upgraded one.
the icemaker never worked right. service tech came out within the first year to fix a known issue that supposedly would fix it - it still continued to freeze up . the dispenser on the door stopped working for crushed ice first - and then it wouldn't dispense ice at all, but we could pull out the ice drawer in the fridge and manually get ice. now it won't work at all.
the doors are uneven.
the space making shelf collapses on itself.
the divider in the fridge drawer is broken.
very hard to disassemble & clean.
character limit reached.

i wish i had seen all the reviews on the problems with the ice maker as we quickly started to experience the same trouble. we fixed it only to have it stop working again a few weeks later (ice build up in the machine). i wouldn't recommend this brand based on our experience with the appliances we got - we're also having issues with our microwave and stove!

bought a new house with all new samsung appliances 3 years ago. already have replaced the stove and dishwasher. love the look of the refrigerator, but the ice maker problem has me ready to throw it in the trash. now down to having to defrost it once a week, so basically have no ice most of the time. there are no 'certified' samsung dealers within 75 miles of me, and every appliance repair service i have called wants nothing to do with it - won't even look at it.

Ice Maker is garbage

the fridge looks nice, the fridge keeps food cold and the freezer freezes food just fine. the ice maker has been a problem since day 1. its always freezing over, rarely makes ice. we have to google how to defrost it constantly. if you just want a nice looking fridge/freezer this is for you. if you like ice...move along.

I bought this fridge about 2 years ago. Not had a problem since! Now the ice maker is constantly jamming and ice is not dispensing. Everything about this fridge is great, just can't get the ice maker to work properly. Perfect for kids, the added smaller fridge drawer is perfect for kids stuff! Lots of room.

We've had this product for about a month, and are very happy with it. The french door design is great by itself, having the Showcase door made it better still, but what REALLY sold us on this unit was the metal cooling and metal reinforced shelves in Showcase door. It's much sturdier that other designs.

Good refrigerator with a few flaws

I've owned my Samsung refrigerator for 6 months and was very excited when I purchased it. Now, not so much. The two main issues I have is that 1) the plastic border around the shelves started to immediately crack once we began using it. I tried to get them replaced, but the warranty classifies this a only cosmetic. Otherwise, it's an expense that Samsung does not wish to cover. Secondly, this refrigerator is not spill/leak friendly. DO NOT allow the opportunity for spills or leaks, it is a real pain to clean up!

So bummed we are stuck with this pile of garbage. It's beautiful to look at, but that does NOT help a family of 4. The ICE MAKER STINKS. The bin won't hold enough ice to make and fill a small cooler to keep half a dozen waters cold for a little league baseball game! WHAT if I have iced tea on a summer afternoon and want to till 4 glasses with ice...ummmmm...I don't think so.
There is a bar at the fold up shelf that blocks storage on the shelf below. The two crispers are quite small. The whole thing is just a lame design set up. They need to stick to cell phones. It is not even worthy of the garage. Waste of electricity. Wish there were reviews before I bought it. So bummed.

This unit arrived with 3 of the 4 doors looking like someone took a ball peen hammer to them. It took 4 months to get 2 of the 3 damaged doors delivered and changed out. The 3rd door with the water and ice maker has not yet arrived, another 2 to 3 weeks to arrive, maybe. Not happy with Samsung parts department. So far the unit works fine, a little small, if I were to do it again I would get the full size one.

I love this refrigerator because it fits into a set space, Everything is visible and accessible. The middle drawer is great for snacks and kid stuff. My only complaint is the left door storage. There really isn't a lot of space for condiments as the space is to small. I am however a container kind of person, so I made do with some bins

Before we purchased this pruduct, I didn't realize that Samsung was in the home appliance business. I thought that you were just in the electronics business (like TVs, soundbars, Blue-Ray players, and the like). But now that we own one of your home appliance products I'm thrilled that you are also in this business!

Married 45 years, family of 10 when all together, day to day just the two of us. This is an amazing refrigerator. It's a nice addition to our kitchen, the black stainless is really an attractive change, and the design offers us so much more than our 7 year old Frigidaire side by side, which no longer manufactured one of the two parts needed for it to be repaired. I was so tired of not having enough space to freeze anything from frozen pizza in their boxes to cookie sheets to chill before icing. Everything about this refrigerator is a pleasing change, I understand there is some discussion about the design of the shelves, and I agree they could have been designed smarter, but it just keeps us thinking about what is really needed when we shop, and so far it hasn't been a problem that causes us stress. Counter depth before, and still counter depth choice, but this French door versus side by side just seems more roomy, and the French door/easy access door on the one side is a treat to use/smart design. We like everything about this refrigerator, we are pleased with our purchase, and so far would suggest this purchase to all who ask.

GREAT FRIDGE WITH EASY ACCESS

WE LOVE OUR NEW FRIDGE. THE NEW BLACK STAINLESS STEEL FINISH IS BEAUTIFUL AND DOES NOT FINGER PRINT OR SMUDGES LIKE STANDARD STAINLESS STEEL. THE NEW LED LIGHTING IS FANTASTIC ALLOWING YOU TO SEE EVERYTHING CLEARLY. IT LOOKS SO GREAT THAT SOMETIMES I JUST OPEN THE DOORS TO ENJOY THE LIGHTING! THE WATER/ICE MAKER IS CONVENIENT WITH CUBED OR CRUSHED ICE. THE SEPARATE DRAWER ABOVE THE FREEZER IS REALLY GREAT WITH IT'S SEPARATE TEMPERATURE CONTROL.. IN GENERAL, THIS FRIDGE IS THOUGHT OUT VERY WELL. EVERYTHING INSIDE IS EASILY ACCESSIBLE FROM THE SAME STANCE WHETHER YOU ARE GETTING SOMETHING OUT OF THE FREEZER BELOW OR SOMETHING FROM THE BACK OF THE SHELF LEFT OR RIGHT. YES... WE LOVE OUR NEW FRIDGE!

After seeing some reviews about noise and problems with the ice maker, I was a little hesitant above this fridge and when it was installed, it took quite awhile for the first few batches of ice. I even thought they might not have turned on the water. But once it started cranking them out, I was surprised how quick it refilled the bucket. My only complaint is the bucket seems a little small. My old whirlpool had a bigger bucket but it wasn't a dispenser. As far as the noise, it is much quieter than my old unit, and I had no complaints about that one. All in all, except for the price, I think this unit is a nice one.

So far so good. With my old refrigerator I had to get on my hands and knees to see what was inside the fridge. I am loving this design So easy to see inside. Have already used the big storage drawer for a large item I made for a party. First time I've had ice and water on the door. I used to go for ice cubes in the tray and there were never any in there. My husband never filled a tray when he emptied it! We are absolutely loving this.

I've only had this refrigerator for about 2 weeks. I like the counter depth, although it seems to make the interior much smaller. I like the food showcase because it allows me to quickly get to condiments, beverages, etc. without opening the full refrigerator door. I also love the flex drawer that allows me to separately control the temperature.

Love this refrigerator. It's a replacement that fit perfectly and was professionally installed in under an hour by the installers. Door within a door makes it easy to fetch items you normally use without wasting energy. Had an older side by side and this one looks better, is more efficient and the interior space is more user friendly.

I was having problems with my old refrigerator, so I was like crazy trying to search for a new affordable, elegant and recognized one. My requirements were specific, "Black Stainless Steel Counter Depth Refrigerator " and all I could find were very expensive and simple or ugly. I came across with this refrigerator, and I fell in love... Beautiful design inside out and for a unbeatable price... It was a lifesaver with elegance... :) Happy Customer here!!

We have only had this fridge about a week but so far I love it! It is only my husband and I so it is the perfect size for us. It is a very good looking fridge on the outside and is user friendly on the inside. I love the flex drawer and the fact that it has it's own temperature control. The shelves are adjustable to be flexible enough to put items where you like them most. The door-in-a-door allows me to have our most used products right there without getting into the main fridge. I am just very pleased with our purchase so far and would highly recommend it to others who need a smaller fridge.

Our new fridge has been an awesome addition to our kitchen. It looks great on the outside and we love all of it's features. We love all of the storage space- the freezer has two dividers,which is perfect for organization. We love our separate deli section- great organization and it is easy for our children to reach. The new door handle that partially opens up the fridge saves a lot of energy- it is easier to locate items and you don't feel the cold air coming out. So, the organization is excellent! It is a bit pricey, but all of the features are totally worth paying for. We strongly recommend this fridge for future buyers.
