Review: "10 Minutes to Install..." - ....or so goes the seller's claim, but I can tell you this was a 12-24 hr project on my 2011 Samsung French Door Model RF263AERS (including the time l spent thawing/dismantling the shelving/"twin-cooling" cover and popping-off the back plate to access the flexible drain tubes for cleaning, and while at it, cleaning those dusty coils). Depending on how much ice has plugged-up the evaporator drain hole; (I would recommend being patient and letting the tube of ice thaw COMPLETELY top-to-bottom at room temp to avoid damage from excess artificial heat, otherwise you'll be starting over again from scratch if any ice remains ANYWHERE in the length of the tube). The ice in my drain tube was so solid that dumping hot water on top had little effect as it would either drip down into the refrigerator or instantly freeze-up. (hence the mentioned 12-24 hr project thaw time)! Once thawed, I ran a small gauge length of wire cord all the way down the drain tube length just to make sure nothing else has blocked the tube creating the ice impact and made sure all the water had dried in the length of the tube before plugging the fridge back in case any water left behind could possibly refreeze below the new heated drain clip The shorter "OEM drain-clip" is a mild under-statement, as mine from the factory was so short it never even touched the drain hole! That said, this new and improved "BlueStars" after-market clip does install relatively easy and deep into the drain-hole without any modification to the clip (AFTER THAWING and THEN being extremely careful in removing the so-called "twin-cooling" cover and not cracking the plastic or damaging the two upper electrical left-side plugs or tearing-up the foam insulation blocks on the back of the cover, which will likely occur if I had impatiently tried to dismantle while everything was still frozen solid). The evaporator fins attached to the heating element above the drain hole are thin and delicate and you will have to bend one or two slightly when attaching the new clip (don't forget to bend-up the two strip-tabs on the sides of the new clip for maximum conductivity). So yes, an easy, quick and inexpensive install of this new and improved drain-clip, which (assuming the fridge does not have other issues going on) in theory, should solve the icing problem that Samsung shoulda corrected at the factory.

Did your local appliance repair shop laugh when you called and said you have a Samsung frig with a water puddling issue, mine did. Simple search and found this clip will solve the Samsung refrigerator evaporator drain ice buildup issue. Easy to install once the evaporator cover is removed from the back of the inside of the frig. Give yourself 2-4hrs with careful use of hair dryer to remove the cover. Additional time may be required allow the evaporator drain passage to thaw to allow the additional length of the clip to be placed properly. To access, it does require removal of the shelving and drawers but not the water filter assembly. Recommended is to unplug the frig from AC power. There are numerous reputable "water under the crisper drawer" videos on YouTube that step by step walk you thru the installation procedure. I personally recommend accessing the back of the refrigerator to clean the drain tubes, dust and muck from the drain pan for best fluid evaporation. When disassembling I found poor manufacturer assembly practices with the original clip bent over and not in any way in a position to thaw the ice build-up.
