Product review (5 stars): Great Stocking Stuffer!
Seriously, if your stocking looks like a refrigerator with a broken ice maker. I have a Kenmore Elite that quit making ice. YouTube has lots of videos on how to troubleshoot and replace one, and it's relatively simple for any DIY capable person. Only tool needed was a 1/4 inch nut driver, but I also used a swivel with a nut driver handle and 1/4 inch socket so I could reach the screws a bit better. It took about 20 minutes to install, and that's taking my time and reviewing the video again; probably more caution than is needed. Within a hour, we had ice. Factory settings for the volume of water going into the ice tray was good. I knew to check that from the videos, and once it is working, that is probably the only other thing to check.

I picked this one because it is the brand name. Other less expensive versions were available, and I debated whether to save a few buck because they should be pretty basic, but I decided not to risk it with an off-brand. I'm satisfied now. The off-brand might work fine, but I feel confident in this purchase and hope to get another 12 years like I did from the original. If I'd put in an off-brand, how many years would be satisfying for saving the $20 or $30?
