I was about to buy a new fridge but held off due to a lot of complaints about pieces of ice falling down the back section of samsung and other refrigerators. I've got a shitty 90s ge fridge, that has a wierd defrost drain. Basically the issue is it freezes down the drain line. A bunch of googling and one dude had a gem, take a piece of 8 ga copper wire, hang it over the defrost coils, and run it down the drain, copper conducts heat amazingly. Hasn't been a issue for 5 years since.
