Ice makers in the fridge are always a maintenance nightmare!

Absolutely agree. Refrigerator compartments should never hold ice. At the most, there should only be a simple tap in the refrigerator section of your fridge to increase reliability.

Had an LG french door for 7 years that we purchased new in 2017. Never had an issue with the indoor ice maker. That said we went through 4 compressors during that time.

I think the water dispenser in the door on the freezer side, in a side by side, works reasonably well. In the French door models that isn’t possible, and it is a nightmare.

And a terrible waste of space.
I bought a GE Profile stove with below warming tray in 2008. Never had a single problem. So satisfied I bought a GE Profile French door fridge with cool water only in 2014. No ice maker. Its now 2024 and they are still going strong!! I paid a lot for them but they are worth it just for the peace of mind. The no maintenance is a bonus extra 😀 👍
thank you for also giving the drawbacks of each appliance

I’m looking at the GE. How reliable is that compressor?

This is something a lot of people agree with! Statistically, they actually aren't any more prone to failure in the fridge than freezer, but they DO take up a lot of space!
Is the Frigidaire the only one on this list that is counter depth?
Great video! But just a heads up at 1:10 you displayed a Bosch dishwasher model number instead of the fridge's.

Compressor went out on my 3 years old $3000+ Samsung fridge more than 2 weeks ago. They came to replace the compressor a couple days ago. Worked fine when he left. Fridge and freezer was cooling down. Next morning, broken again. Now, I have to wait another week for the part to come in and be replaced yet again. So, it will be more than 3 weeks without a fridge and eating out a lot. I’m tempted to just trash this $3k fridge and go back to an American brand. When you see a lot of negative reviews online about Samsung, believe them.

What brand frig is good, I don't want bells and whistles or computer, just a simple top and bottom frig
Greatness 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Refrigerators are all about repair or lack of it. The ice maker is, of course, the problem, but if it is located in the freezer, it is has a better chance of surviving. Most repair people would not put an ice maker in at all.

The general consensus we've found is that ice makers are definitely the most issue-prone component of any fridge. We recommend that if you are to get one, you get one that's in the freezer like you said. But for those that don't need one, absolutely just go with a fridge that doesn't have one!
$4k refridge thats crazy!!

The frigidaire gallery is that very thing
I truly despise the ugly florescent😡 lights the new models have. I prefer a warm white interior light.
Wat too much money for something that's only gonna last 6 to 8 years. Good looks and fancy won't keep your milk cold
Entire video is worthless due to you recommending a fridge that has an icemaker in the fridge instead of freezer. thats rule #1 and you broke it
But, but other Boulevard Home (BH) videos say to not buy Frigidaire or LG, and recommend against buying anything with "through the door" options. And what about recommending ones with the ice maker in the refrigerator section vs the freezer, didn't BH say this is bad? And even recommending an LG goes against what is said in BH videos that were made in 2024. So much for your credibility. Whirlpool was recommended but that did even make your list.
Unbelievable! Recommendations are all non-starters based upon each product offered including an indoor ice maker and water dispensing installed in a door. Totally contrary to your own sites recommendation on selecting more reliable products from these same manufacturers. Perhaps, a play to sell extended warranties with these specific models. I don't get it.
Stay away from any fridge with an Ice Maker. Stay away

Mostly their refrigerators. They make great washing machines though.
Stay away from Samsung and LG appliances all together. Made in Korea! They don’t last and are expensive to purchase. Not a good value.

We have a video explaining just this! LG have started to improve their refrigerators in recent years but costs are still really up there for these name brands for sure!
