If your refrigerator has stopped making ice, I’d start by matching a replacement assembly to the exact refrigerator model and its existing part number. These picks are replacement ice makers for refrigerators, not countertop machines or universal add-ons. The Nurfosttek 241798224 is my strongest all-around choice for compatible Frigidaire and Kenmore units, while the Kitchen Basics 101 adds a stated one-year warranty and an automatic shut-off arm. For a compatible Frigidaire, Electrolux, or Kenmore model where a built-in harness matters, the Ice Maker Replacement Assembly is a useful alternative.

The main tradeoff is not simply feature count: it is correct model fit versus installation convenience. A replacement part can list several brands or part numbers and still fail to match a particular refrigerator. I compare the four options by stated compatibility, wiring-harness details, operational features, and the installation information provided. I also include a Whirlpool-focused pick, the ClimaTek, for owners whose refrigerator does not match the Frigidaire-family options.

Key Takeaways
- The Nurfosttek is the broadest all-around fit here for select Frigidaire and Kenmore refrigerators, with adjustable cube size and a stated two-pound capacity.
- The Kitchen Basics 101 stands out for its automatic shut-off arm, eight-cube cycle, and one-year warranty.
- The Ice Maker Replacement Assembly includes a built-in wiring harness, unlike the ClimaTek, but it is still limited to select models.
- The ClimaTek is the lineup’s Whirlpool-oriented option; its harness is not included, so check your existing setup before ordering.
- Part-number overlap can help narrow a match, but I would verify the refrigerator’s full model number before choosing any of these assemblies.

More Details on Our Top Picks
Nurfosttek 241798224 Refrigerator Ice Maker Replacement for Frigidaire and Kenmore
I rank the Nurfosttek first because it brings together the most useful combination for a common repair: Frigidaire and Kenmore compatibility, a list of replacement part numbers, and a few clear operating details. It is specified with a two-pound capacity, adjustable ice cube size, and an automatic start/stop cycle. Those details give buyers a better sense of what the replacement offers than a bare part number alone. Its stated 11.6-inch depth may also help owners compare the assembly with the space and existing unit in their refrigerator.
Against the Kitchen Basics 101, Nurfosttek provides adjustable cube sizing and a stated capacity, while Kitchen Basics gives a per-cycle cube count, shut-off arm, and one-year warranty. The choice comes down to which detail matters more for your repair; I would not treat either as a universal upgrade. The Ice Maker Replacement Assembly shares several listed part numbers with this model and includes a built-in harness, a detail Nurfosttek’s supplied description does not specify. For a buyer who wants that harness included, the third pick may be more appealing.
The listing describes DIY installation with a 1/4-inch screwdriver, which may suit an owner comfortable with a straightforward appliance repair. Still, the tool note does not remove the need to confirm fit or follow safe power-disconnection steps. Nurfosttek’s main limitation is the same one that applies across this roundup: model matching is essential, and no professional installation support is included. I’d choose it when the model and part number line up and its cube adjustment is useful, not simply because the brand names appear on the package.
Pros:- Lists compatibility with select Frigidaire and Kenmore refrigerators and multiple replacement part numbers.
- Provides adjustable ice cube size and automatic start/stop operation.
- States a two-pound capacity and food-grade materials.
- Describes DIY installation using a 1/4-inch screwdriver.
Cons:- Compatibility must be checked against the exact refrigerator model.
- Professional installation support is not included.
- The supplied description does not specify whether a wiring harness is included.
Best for: Owners of compatible Frigidaire or Kenmore refrigerators who want adjustable cube size, a stated capacity, and a DIY-oriented replacement.
Not ideal for: Buyers who have not confirmed their exact refrigerator model, need installation support, or specifically want a replacement with a stated built-in wiring harness.
- Brand:Nurfosttek
- Model number:241798224
- Compatible brands:Frigidaire and Kenmore
- Capacity:2 pounds
- Voltage and wattage:115 Volts AC; 184 watts
- Dimensions:11.6 x 4.6 x 4.8 inches
- Replacement part numbers:241798201, 5304456671, 241642501, 241642503A, 241798211, 241642511, 241798209
- Operation and material:Adjustable cube size, automatic start/stop, food-grade materials
Our verdict“I’d choose Nurfosttek as the most rounded option here when its part numbers match your Frigidaire or Kenmore refrigerator and adjustable cubes are a plus.”
Kitchen Basics 101 Ice Maker Replacement for Electrolux, Frigidaire, Kenmore, and Sears Refrigerators (Part 241798224)
Kitchen Basics 101 earns a distinct place in this group by spelling out two practical details: eight cubes per cycle and an automatic shut-off arm. The arm is intended to stop ice production when the bin reaches its limit, a useful feature for people who want a clearly described way to prevent overflow. The listing also states a one-year warranty, giving this pick a support detail that is not supplied for the other three products.
Compared with Nurfosttek, Kitchen Basics provides a more concrete per-cycle figure and the shut-off arm, while Nurfosttek lists a two-pound capacity and adjustable cube size. The two overlap around part 241798224 and share a Frigidaire/Kenmore connection, but the exact refrigerator match still decides between them. Kitchen Basics names Electrolux and Sears as compatible brands too, though that wider brand list should not be read as a guarantee for every model from those manufacturers.
This replacement is also described as a fix for issues such as no ice production, debris in ice, or water leaks. I would read that as the range of problems the part is intended to address, not proof that an ice maker alone will correct a refrigerator fault elsewhere in the water system. The listing warns that installation may call for technical skill. Compared with the built-in-harness assembly, it does not state that a harness is included, so buyers should confirm the connections and exact part fit before purchasing. Its warranty and shut-off detail make it a strong choice when those points matter more than cube adjustment.
Pros:- Produces a stated eight cubes per cycle.
- Has an automatic shut-off arm intended to prevent bin overflow.
- Includes a stated one-year warranty.
- Lists Electrolux, Frigidaire, Kenmore, and Sears compatibility.
Cons:- Exact refrigerator model compatibility still needs confirmation.
- Installation may require technical skill for some owners.
- The supplied details do not state that a wiring harness is included.
Best for: Owners of a compatible Electrolux, Frigidaire, Kenmore, or Sears refrigerator who value a stated shut-off arm, cycle count, and one-year warranty.
Not ideal for: Buyers seeking a guaranteed simple installation, adjustable cube size, or a universal assembly that fits without model verification.
- Brand:Kitchen Basics 101
- Manufacturer:SupplyEdge
- Part number:241798224
- Compatible brands:Electrolux, Frigidaire, Kenmore, and Sears
- Capacity per cycle:8 cubes
- Shut-off feature:Automatic shut-off arm
- Warranty:1 year
- Dimensions:4.5 x 4.75 x 11.3 inches
Our verdict“I’d pick Kitchen Basics 101 when its model fit checks out and the stated shut-off arm and one-year warranty matter more than adjustable cube sizing.”
Ice Maker Replacement Assembly for Select Frigidaire, Electrolux, and Kenmore Refrigerators
The clearest reason to choose this assembly is that it comes with a built-in wiring harness. For a compatible refrigerator, having that part included can make the replacement package more complete than the ClimaTek, whose harness is specifically not included. That difference is practical, but it does not mean this model is universally easier to install: the assembly is explicitly limited to select Frigidaire, Electrolux, and Kenmore refrigerators, and the listing says to confirm the refrigerator model before buying.
Its replacement-number list is extensive and overlaps with Nurfosttek on several numbers, including 241798224, 241798201, and 5304456671. This gives a buyer useful starting points for comparison, but I would match the full refrigerator model as well as the old assembly’s number. Nurfosttek provides more stated operating information, including adjustable cube size and a two-pound capacity; this assembly’s standout is instead its included harness and stated installation approach. It does not provide a stated capacity, cube count, or warranty in the supplied details.
The installation note says to unplug the power plug before replacing the assembly, a helpful safety instruction, and the product is presented as designed for straightforward installation. I would still avoid treating that description as a promise that every owner can complete the repair without technical help. Compared with Kitchen Basics, this pick offers the harness detail, while Kitchen Basics gives a one-year warranty and an eight-cube cycle. Choose this assembly for its included connection component only after confirming that the part and wiring match your particular refrigerator.
Pros:- Includes a built-in wiring harness.
- Lists a broad set of replacement part numbers.
- Covers select Frigidaire, Electrolux, and Kenmore refrigerators.
- Provides a power-disconnection instruction for installation.
Cons:- Not universal; exact refrigerator compatibility must be confirmed.
- The supplied details do not state capacity, cube output, or warranty.
- Straightforward installation wording does not guarantee an easy repair for every owner.
Best for: Owners of select Frigidaire, Electrolux, or Kenmore refrigerators whose existing part number matches and who prefer a replacement that includes a wiring harness.
Not ideal for: Owners of other refrigerator brands, shoppers who have not checked their model number, or buyers who want stated capacity, cube output, or warranty details.
- Compatible brands:Select Frigidaire, Electrolux, and Kenmore refrigerators
- Compatibility:Not universal; confirm refrigerator model
- Wiring harness:Built-in
- Example replacement numbers:241798224, 241798201, 5304456671, 241642501, 241642503A, 241798211, 241798231, 241642511, 241798209
- Additional listed numbers:Includes 5303320545, 5304445222, 5304456669, 5304456672, PS10057209, and other listed equivalents
- Installation instruction:Unplug the power plug before installation
Our verdict“I’d favor this assembly over ClimaTek when a compatible Frigidaire-family refrigerator needs a replacement with its harness included.”
ClimaTek Replacement Ice Maker for Whirlpool Refrigerators
ClimaTek fills the gap in this lineup for owners of compatible Whirlpool, Roper, and Estate refrigerators. It is described as a replacement that fills and freezes water, ejects ice, and refills automatically, covering the core sequence expected of a working refrigerator ice maker. Its listed equivalents include WPW10190965, D7824706Q, 4317943, and 1129313, giving Whirlpool-family owners several identifiers to compare with the old part.
This is a different repair path from the three Frigidaire-family options above. Nurfosttek, Kitchen Basics, and the harness-included assembly list Frigidaire, Kenmore, and/or Electrolux compatibility; those brand lists do not make them substitutes for a Whirlpool-compatible part. ClimaTek’s main drawback is its harness is not included. By comparison, the Ice Maker Replacement Assembly explicitly includes one. If the refrigerator needs a harness or the existing one is damaged, that omission may add another part to source or make this assembly the wrong fit for the repair.
The product supplies fewer operating details than Nurfosttek or Kitchen Basics: there is no stated capacity, cube-size adjustment, shut-off arm, or warranty in the information provided. That does not negate its automatic ice-making sequence, but it leaves less to compare beyond fit and basic operation. Compatibility depends on the specific refrigerator model, so I would match the model number and listed equivalent before ordering. ClimaTek makes the most sense when your refrigerator belongs to its Whirlpool-oriented compatibility group and the harness situation is already accounted for.
Pros:- Describes automatic filling, freezing, ice ejection, and refilling.
- Lists Whirlpool, Roper, Estate, and other compatible refrigerator models.
- Provides several compatible replacement part numbers.
- Uses a stated 115-volt, 60-Hz electrical specification.
Cons:- Wiring harness is not included.
- Fit depends on the exact refrigerator model.
- The supplied details do not state capacity, cube adjustment, or warranty.
Best for: Owners of compatible Whirlpool, Roper, Estate, or related listed refrigerators who need the specified replacement assembly and already have the correct harness.
Not ideal for: Frigidaire-family refrigerator owners, buyers who need a harness included, or shoppers seeking clearly stated capacity, cube adjustment, or warranty information.
- Brand:ClimaTek
- Model:D7824706Q
- Voltage:115 volts
- Frequency:60 Hz
- Compatible part numbers:WPW10190965, D7824706Q, 4317943, 1129313, and other listed equivalents
- Harness:Not included
- Quantity:1
- Operation:Fills and freezes water, ejects ice, and refills automatically
Our verdict“I’d choose ClimaTek for a matching Whirlpool-family refrigerator when the harness is already available, rather than as a general-purpose replacement.”
How We Picked
I ranked these parts around the problem a refrigerator owner is actually trying to solve: restoring the original in-fridge ice maker without buying an incompatible assembly. I gave the most weight to the specific compatible brands and replacement part numbers listed by each maker, since those details are more useful for fit than broad claims of wide compatibility. None of these products is described as universal, and the product listings call for checking the refrigerator model.
I then compared the practical differences that can affect a repair. A built-in wiring harness can make a replacement more convenient when it matches the refrigerator connection; an absent harness may mean an additional part or a different installation path. I also looked at described cycle behavior, cube adjustment, shut-off features, capacity, warranty information, and the level of installation guidance supplied. I did not assume that a listed replacement number guarantees fit across every refrigerator carrying that brand name.
The ranking reflects those distinctions, not a claim that one assembly fits every home. Nurfosttek takes the lead for its combination of a stated capacity, adjustable cube size, and broad Frigidaire/Kenmore part-number coverage. Kitchen Basics follows for its clear cycle and shut-off details plus a stated warranty. The assembly with a built-in harness ranks next for buyers who value that inclusion, while ClimaTek serves a different, Whirlpool-centered repair and ranks lower for shoppers seeking a harness-inclusive package. I have kept the comparison to the supplied product information and have not treated installation ease as a guarantee for every refrigerator.

Factors to Consider When Choosing Ice Makers For Fridge
I’d treat refrigerator ice-maker shopping as a fit-first repair, not a search for the part with the longest feature list. Use the points below to narrow the options before comparing convenience features.Start with the refrigerator model and old part number
Find the refrigerator’s full model number on its identification label, then compare it with the replacement part’s compatibility information. If the old ice maker is accessible, record its part number too. A number such as 241798224 appears across more than one option in this roundup, but shared numbers alone do not prove that every assembly, connector, or revision will fit every refrigerator. Check the manufacturer’s fit information for the exact model whenever possible.
Brand names offer a useful first filter, not a final answer. The Nurfosttek and Kitchen Basics options name Frigidaire and Kenmore among their compatible brands; the harness-included assembly lists select Frigidaire, Electrolux, and Kenmore models; ClimaTek is aimed at Whirlpool-family refrigerators. A product can cover multiple brands while remaining limited to particular models within each brand.
Check the harness before ordering
Among these four choices, the harness difference is easy to miss but can shape the repair. The Ice Maker Replacement Assembly says that a wiring harness is built in, while ClimaTek clearly says its harness is not included. The Nurfosttek and Kitchen Basics descriptions supplied here do not state whether a harness comes with the unit. If your old connection is damaged, missing, or different from the replacement, check the parts list or ask the seller before placing an order.
Do not assume that a harness included in the box will match your refrigerator simply because the brand name appears on the listing. Connection compatibility remains part of model fit. Compare the connector and old assembly with the replacement details, and avoid forcing a connection that does not match.
Choose features around your actual ice needs
Feature differences are meaningful when they solve a specific household problem. Nurfosttek offers adjustable cube size and states a two-pound capacity; Kitchen Basics gives a count of eight cubes per cycle and an automatic shut-off arm. Those are not directly interchangeable measurements, so I would not use them to declare which one produces more ice overall. Instead, treat each as a different kind of information: one speaks to adjustment and stored capacity, the other to cycle output and stopping behavior.
ClimaTek describes the automatic fill, freeze, eject, and refill sequence, while the harness-included assembly focuses more on compatibility and its included wiring. If your priority is a clearly named bin shut-off feature or warranty, Kitchen Basics has those details. If you want adjustable cubes, Nurfosttek is the only pick here with that feature stated. A missing feature in a product description is not proof that the part lacks it, but I would not count on a feature unless it is confirmed.
Be realistic about installation
Nurfosttek describes a DIY replacement using a 1/4-inch screwdriver, and the harness-included assembly gives an instruction to unplug the power plug before installation. Kitchen Basics notes that some installations may require technical skill. Those details help set expectations, but the repair can still vary with the refrigerator’s access, wiring, and existing condition. Disconnect power as directed by the appliance maker and use qualified help if you are unsure how to remove or reconnect the assembly.
Also diagnose the symptom before treating the ice maker as the only possible fault. A no-ice problem may involve the water supply or another refrigerator component, and a replacement assembly cannot fix a problem outside its own function. I would confirm both the part fit and the likely source of the failure before beginning a repair.
Use warranty and stated details as tie-breakers
Kitchen Basics is the only option here with a stated one-year warranty. Nurfosttek supplies more detail about material, capacity, and cube adjustment, while the ClimaTek listing gives voltage and frequency alongside its replacement numbers. The harness-included assembly offers a long replacement-number list but fewer operating specifications in the supplied information. These differences help compare what each listing documents; they do not replace compatibility checks or confirm the full terms of support.
My short version: begin with the model number, verify the old part number, check harness needs, then use features and warranty to decide among parts that actually fit. That sequence helps prevent a feature-rich but incompatible replacement from becoming an avoidable return or stalled repair.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are these countertop ice makers?
No. These are replacement assemblies for ice makers inside refrigerators. They are intended to restore a refrigerator’s existing automatic ice-making function when the replacement matches the appliance. If you need a standalone machine for a counter, none of these four products is designed for that job.
How do I know which replacement fits my refrigerator?
Check the refrigerator’s full model number and compare it with the replacement’s listed compatibility. If you can safely access the old assembly, note its part number and compare that too. A replacement-number match is a useful clue, but it may not settle fit by itself; confirm that the specific refrigerator model and connector are supported before ordering.
Which option includes a wiring harness?
The Ice Maker Replacement Assembly for select Frigidaire, Electrolux, and Kenmore refrigerators explicitly lists a built-in wiring harness. ClimaTek explicitly says its harness is not included. The supplied details for Nurfosttek and Kitchen Basics do not specify harness inclusion, so I would check those listings or confirm with the seller rather than assume either way.
Which replacement is best for a Whirlpool refrigerator?
ClimaTek is the Whirlpool-oriented choice in this group and also lists Roper, Estate, and other compatible refrigerators. It names several replacement part numbers and describes automatic filling, freezing, ejection, and refilling. Its harness is not included, and the exact refrigerator model still needs to match, so I would verify both points before buying.
Can I install one of these ice makers myself?
Some owners may be comfortable with a replacement, but installation depends on the refrigerator and the condition of its wiring and connections. Nurfosttek describes a screwdriver-based DIY approach, while the harness-included assembly says to unplug the power plug before installation. Kitchen Basics notes that technical skill may be needed for some repairs. Follow the appliance maker’s safety instructions and get qualified help if the task is outside your skill level.
Conclusion
For a compatible Frigidaire or Kenmore refrigerator, I’d start with Nurfosttek if adjustable cube size and its stated capacity suit your needs. Pick Kitchen Basics 101 when you value the shut-off arm, eight-cube cycle, and one-year warranty. Choose the harness-included assembly if your select Frigidaire-family model matches and you want that wiring part included. For a compatible Whirlpool, Roper, or Estate refrigerator, ClimaTek is the focused option, provided you already have the right harness. In every case, let your refrigerator model and exact part match decide the purchase; brand names and long replacement lists are only the starting point.
