I’ve tried two new filters and like many others have said it does not fit properly. The new filters do not fully lock like the original filter and will leak if you leave it in. **I have watched the YouTube videos and gone through the Samsung support pages so please do not respond with those weak answers**
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

After reading the long "How NOT TO have it LEAK" review I grew a pair and went for it. The original came out easily. The new one leaked even though I gently pushed it in while turning it to lock. Then.... I shut off the water line to my refrigerator with the small ball valve behind the refrigerator, installed the filter the same way but without any resistance and turned the water back on. No leaks.
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
