CAN THE RAPID FREEZE PLATE FREEZE FOOD OR OTHER ITEMS?

Yes! This is why we don’t call it just an ice maker.  To remove the ice maker just lift out the entire component.  Experiment with bringing new foods or drinks along or use it to quick-chill warm beer. If something gets stuck on the surface shut the ice maker off and let it thaw.  If you need to clean it off, use warm, soapy water.  Let us know what you use it for!  Use #CFX355IM
