I know they have been doing that in some cases. I had customers in here the other day that were asking me about the models with water/ice in the door...I was like "stay away...until new models come out next month which have removed the function which caused icemakers to shut down." We won't sell any ice/water in the door. Tod with that amount of service calls you should take it up with the retailer and see if they can get ELX to pull it.

Ice maker repaired three times including last week. Temperature controls are broken again. The fridge is set at 37 but refuses to go above 26. Repair folks are on the way again for the fifth time and third time in one month. Food has been ruined each time. Junk. And customer service says "take it up with the extended warranty company". Lousy company if you ask me. They should recall all of them. You should stop selling them. Mine has been awful. Ice maker repaired three times including last week.

You have to remove the two screws at the bottom of the door first. After that it should become pretty clear how to proceed. Removal of the door from the oven is needed to access the screws.

I'd like to know what happened to the genius who designed these first generation fridges. Like I said in the video, the new models look great, and have some interesting features...I just hope they work correctly. They went nuclear with the function that caused the icemaker problems...it's no longer part of the fridge so I am of the mind that the problems will be fixed.

Also will freezer have 3 drawers looks like 1 maybe 2 at best. I have MS & other health issues that limit my range of motion so I need easiest access to items in freezer & water/ice dispenser. Our current model has EW28 as starting serial number so I have assumed that replacement will be the same? If not there has been cyber talk of class action lawsuits.Last summer I was out of ice for 3 months (I live in a hot weather local & MS & heat are a horrible mixture. Thanks for any info you can share with me.

Most of the chatter regarding Elx fridges as of late has been the continued problems with the ice makers. It's quite absurd bc I was told that they had removed all of the bad fridges from national warehouses as of last Spring. What a headache.

I'm buying a DCS 30" and need to decide asap. Leaning toward duel fuel, heard it's better, but wondering if it's worth it. I'm a serious cook, not a pro. This is the last stove I'll ever buy, so I want it right! Would be grateful for your take on it. Thanks!
