If you turn the water off going to the ice maker it takes the pressure off the line and it makes it so much easier to change the filter
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi there,
Thank you very much for your observation of our water filter. Should you need support in the future, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at www.Samsung.com or by calling 1-800-7267864 (1800-SAMSUNG)
I always need to shut off my water when replacing the filter which is really easy to do but I have a difficult time resetting the refrigerator filter flashing light reminder
I went to change the water filter in my Samsung refrigerator and no matter what I did it would not totally go in. I put the old filter back in and it works fine. Both filters have the same numbers on them, HAF-QIN/EXP, I bought a three pack, I tried another one and will not work either. So frustrating.

When the filter light came on for the first time, I took the existing filter out to get the correct number. At the time it seemed faster than hunting down the manual. The filter was very difficult to take out, and put back in. We finally managed to muscle it back in. This should have been our first clue we had not done something correctly. Within a few minutes of walking away, and thinking the filter was properly re-installed, water was running onto the floor. Thank goodness we were home to pull the filter back out, which stopped the leak. What a mess! The two bins beside the filter and the flex bin in the middle drawer had to come out so we could reach to remove all the water pooled inside.
OUR RESOLUTION TO STOP THE LEAK? Turn the water off and drain the line to release pressure. Filter went back in without any problems and no leaking when water was turned back on.
I wish I had taken the time to READ THE MANUAL BEFORE CHANGING THE FILTER. It would have saved me a lot of time and frustration had I done it correctly to begin with.
The water filter light came in. I replaced the filter. The light is still on and won’t reset. No information is anywhere on resetting the filter on my model (RF29BB8600QLAA). The pitcher in the beverage center won’t fill.

D NOT FORCE IT IN. Slide the filter in with the arrows pointing to left and right. When it reaches the end and it stops moving STOP. Do not push any further. GENTLY and PERSISTENTLY turn the handle clockwise while pushing GENTLY in. It will lock it in place within 1 and half turns. The arrows will point UP.
Item is wrong. When I put the cartridge my refrigerator started to leak. The original number for used in system is DA97-08006C-A
