We have a Samsung fridge that has the ice and water dispenser in the
door. We bought used(6 months old) and the water has never worked.
It trickles so slowly that it would take you 10 minutes to fill a
typical glass of water. We've changed the filter 3 times so its not
that. However, the ice maker has always worked.

Yesterday I was getting ice and a weird piece popped into my drink.

It is made of soft rubber and was frozen solid with ice in it. I
pulled out the ice drawer to try to find where it goes but I couldnt
see any place obvious. Today I checked and its still making ice like
a champ.

Any idea what this thing is? Also, I'll take suggestions on how to
fix the slow water problem too
