Installed. Made the first ice cubes in less than an hour. Ice mold material seems to be identical to OEM unit, unlike some cheaper replacements that are a lighter gray color and lighter weight. Working great so far and cycles a batch of ice about every 45 minutes. Spend a few more dollars for this one and solve your icemaker problems.

Arrived yesterday and only took 10 minutes to install.(watch utube video on how to install, it really helped).My refrigerator is a Kenmore Elite model# 106.45423801.Video said it may take up to 24 hours to begin producing ice, it took mine 20 hours to begin. Very satisfied. If it changes I will update the review.Update! Ice maker died within 72 hours, beware of return policy! Can not return if it is installed. How do you know if it works without installing it. Beware this seller! $149 paper weight! Only buy if items ship from Amazon not retailers!

It came missing the wire that turns it on and off. I used the one off the old unit, but it does not work.

I'm not dinging the product but a few notes1) It had the wrong connector for my Kenmore Elite fridge which you won't know until you remove the old one2) Removal of the old one is a heck of a lot easier than putting in the new one because of the ground wire which is located on the bottom of the ice maker and is super awkward to get in. A joy I got to experience when trying to put the old one back in

My old ice maker I fixed multiple times by resoldering traces in the control unit after burn outs, etc...but this last problem I couldn't fix. I started overflowing water and wouldn't push out ice so I started looking around for a replacement. The costs I found ranged from dirt cheap to half the price of a new fridge and then this popped up on the feed. The price was higher than most but seemed like it was more OEM so I went with it.Ordered it, got the next day and assembled it with the necessary parts from the old model (plastic pieces - nothing major) and installed it. Boom - 45 minutes later ice starts collecting in the door unit! It appears to be a smaller design for the ice tray but all the original plastic parts fit fine. It also seems way quieter when running - but maybe that's my imagination.I did let it run through a couple of ice productions to clear out packaging dust, etc, that I wasn't able to clean out after installing. But after that we have ice!!!Excellent replacement part! Thanks!Update - The ice maker worked perfectly for nearly 2 weeks and then mysteriously shut off and would do nothing. Called in a service tech thinking that maybe the fridge was on the fritz. Turns out that the cable the contains the temp sensor and that plugs into the heavy motor housing - that end is temperamental on its connection to the enclosed circuit board. It relies completely on "touch" connection instead of having solid metal posts so there's little leeway. Apparently, while installing it and it going through a couple of cycles the cable retracted enough to break connection. This is a very cheap way to build things and sort of disappointing but at least I know now that if it stops making ice that maybe all I need to do is reseat the cable into the housing and that should restore operation. Great Sears tech to catch the issue and avoid an unnecessary return.

1. The price was higher than all other similar products.2. But, out of the box, install took about 15 minutes, and it was exactly like the original.3. Works great !

This is about 99% of an accurate bolt-in replacement ice maker for our Kenmore fridge. The only thing wrong was there should be a hole in the very back end-plate of the ice maker to allow the water delivery tube to fit in. The old unit had a different end plate that permitted the water to enter. I had to drill a hole but it wasn't a big deal and unit works correctly.

Direct replacement for our broken ice maker. Had it 5 months now and it's working great. Produces full ice cubes quick. We never run out of ice anymore!
