The ice maker is just one issue, a medium sized one. The larger issue is our current fridge is just not large enough, and the space is narrow with no room for larger items.

If your fridge is working Ok you can buy a counter top ice maker. Sam's has them, a friend bought on of the 10# models. Works great but the storage bin is on the small side. Or do like my uncle and the last base I worked at and go to a restaurant supply house and see if they have a used commercial ice maker for sale. One of our mechs found one at a restaurant that was going out of business. We all chipped in and bought it for 150 bucks. Was nice to be able to fill up an ice chest to keep the fish I caught cold on my 2 1/2 trip home with out going ans paying Achmed an exorbitant price for a bag of ice.
Commercial ice makers sell for $1800 and up new.

Our current refrigerator is a Whirlpool side by side stainless. With these side by sides there never seems to be enough room. Also, the ice maker in it will hold enough ice to fill up my big thermos water jug that I use when working outside on car lots. If I end up having to work outside more than 1 day in a row the ice maker will not fill back up by the next morning between using all of the ice in the morning and whatever is used in the house during the day. Usually by the time I get home in the afternoon it has filled about half way back up, then we use ice in the evening using most of what was made, then in the morning it is filled about half way back up again. After a couple of days I really do not have enough ice to fill up my jug. So this leads me to start looking at these new french door refrigerators with the slide out freezer in the bottom. I am most interested in one that has dual ice makers, they have one in the door and one in the bottom freezer. We do not use bulk ice that often but when we need it, it would be great to have it. In my little bit of research I am tending to lean toward Samsung or LG. The Whirlpool/Maytag/GE seems like they are way more expensive than what you can get from LG/Samsung. Anybody have any refrigerator experience they would like to share? Online reviews seem to be no help really. Any website I find seems to be an advertisement for 1 brand or the other. Also, Lowes seems to be having a massive sale that lasts a few more days.
