The KBFS25ETSS is a US-market KitchenAid refrigerator. It was on KitchenAid’s US product site from March 2011 to May 2012 and gone after that. That places the machine inside that window: discontinued, and now getting on for fifteen years old. No published specification for this model was recovered — no capacity, no width, no feature list — so none is stated here, and no figure has been taken from a neighbouring model number.
KitchenAid appends a two-digit production-revision code to the base number on the rating plate, and the codes actually observed for this model are KBFS25ETSS00, KBFS25ETSS01. A plate reading one of those is still a KBFS25ETSS; the suffix identifies which production revision you have, and it occasionally decides which version of a part fits. A cabinet of this vintage is past the point where the door seal, the evaporator fan and the defrost components are as-new, and those account for most of what a KBFS25ETSS is called out for. Since the model is discontinued, we settle what can still be supplied for it before the work is quoted.

Most Common Issues on This Model
Control board faults after many years of service, showing as a cabinet that ignores its settings
A failing evaporator fan, heard as a rising whine or a rattle that changes when the door is held shut
A condenser fan that has seized or slowed, which shows first as poor cooling in warm weather
Door hinge and closer wear, so the door sits proud and no longer swings shut on its own
