And it works.

 

It's times like this that I wish I needed another refrigerator.

OMG, that's the same ice maker that was in our 1968/1969 Gibson SxS.  It makes dimples or 1/2 spheres.  This was probably the last true Gibson fridge before the WCI debaucle.

Not So Nice Gibson Ref

That is a regular WP IM with the wrong bucket under it, this is also an 80s POS WCI ref, Cheap plastic everywhere, noisy, poor temperature control, [ freezer never quite cold enough and meanwhile things freeze in the ref section ] And cheap pr-painted cabinet.

 

Diffidently not something I would give a 2nd look at if I needed a spare ref, LOL.

"Whew!"

 

Apparently this fridge is defying all logic and shouldn't even be running.  Hey -- that's just like a certain orange guy from New York.

 

Half-sphere ice would certainly trump other shortcomings IMO.  I hate those "dam" crescents and only use the crushed option on our fridge's dispenser.

So low end

like their ranges made in Grand Rapids Mi. at the old Leonard refrigerator plant.
Maybe it's more Kelvinator? It's missing crisper drawers.
