Product review (5 stars): This worked out great!
I got lucky!  As it goes with anything I install for plumbing, it's understood I am going to make three trips to the Big Orange Box Store for piece parts.

This installed beautifully and without problem, like I had done this before.  I had already replaced my plumbing under the sink during the kitchen remodel with a 1/4" shut off for our future GE refrigerator.  With the use of a 5/8" paddle bit, I drilled holes out of view and through the rear of our cabinets and had a couple feet of slack to connect the 1/4" fitting at the fridge.  I flushed the line out into a 5 gallon bucket before I hooked it up to the fridge.  For the first time in 30+ years, we have a refrigerator that dispenses ice AND water!  Woo-Hoo!
