Let me guess: it just got warmer and more humid in your area? I had a Samsung for many years, and this would happen once or twice a year. It'll freeze solid, at which point it will leak all over your floor, and you'll have to basically defrost the thing. There's a ton of information out there about the problem--I think it's a basic design flaw, and can be exacerbated by humidity and by blocking the airflow at the back of the compartment. I liked my fridge in spite of it, but I have to say that when it finally kicked the bucket, I was happy to get a F&P which has never done that.

Wow. Now I realize how nice it is not to have to think about it anymore! I used to keep towels nearby and had a whole annoying procedure for breaking up the ice. Good times :-)

Perhaps?

iove the organization in my Samsung, french door. bottom freezer, but detest the operation. ice maker replaced twice. 4 years of a pita.

You are not alone in your issues with your fridge. you may be entitled to a refund despite what Samsung initially tells you. Please do not buy a Samsung fridge. Mine leaked 13 months after we bought it. it ruined my floor. it ices up in the back and under the bottom drawer. it ruins food on a regular basis. When you call consumer cares at Samsung, they will tell you it is a warranty issue. That is probably a lie. Samsung fridges have known design defects since 2006 and there are class action suits against them. Search on YouTube for "Samsung fridge recall" and you will find news stories about the thousands who have demanded reparation. if you bought a Samsung fridge, send it back or buy an extended warranty. Or, research other options to get refunded the money stolen from you when Samsung sold you a "lemon".
