What a GE Technician Deals With
The icemaker fills from the rear while its thermostat sits at the front cube, so a slow fill or a freezer colder than about -10°F can eject the rear cubes before they are solid and leave them hollow. Source: GE Appliances - Refrigerator - Hollow, Mushy, or Small Ice Cubes
Depending on the model, the ice maker can sit in the freezer, in the fresh food section or in the fresh food door, and daily output runs roughly 3 to 4.5 pounds by style. Source: GE Appliances - How much ice should I get in a day?
