Scam?
on September 20, 2025
Posted by: JMP0911
from Montgomery, AL
Original filter factory installed had no leaks. Time to change it and as soon as a new one is installed the leaks begin. Is this an intentional filter design on the replacements to cause damage to the housing? Is this done to create service? If I’m only to use a genuine replacement but my genuine replacement causes damage and leaks then I am lost here and can only question the intention.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

A great filter

I had a water main break in my neighborhood last week. The water that was coming out my faucets in the house was brown. But the water that was coming out my refrigerator was crystal clear.

How NOT TO have it LEAK:
on March 22, 2023
Posted by: Apple137
I read the reviews and many wrote that they replaced it and it leaked. I thought maybe they got the wrong size so I pulled the current filter out that came with the fridge. I took a pic of the filter then replaced it and heard a hiss or water sound which I used to hear when replacing my older fridge filter. I inserted the filter with the knob facing the unlock, pushed it in and then turned it to the lock position.
THIS WAS THE WRONG WAY TO INSTALL IT, because it leaked just like everyone said. Thankfully I didn't install it and leave the house.
What worked was to push the filter in gently, making sure it reaches the back where it will connect. Turn it clockwise, while gently pushing it in like you're screwing a cap on. It will turn until it locks on its own. There was no hissing or water sound this time. This instruction should've been on the filter door.
Now if the water already leaked before you read this, do the following first:
Remove both drawers and remove all water under the drawers with a cloth towel first.
Inside where the filter goes in there's a small plastic plate that comes out, almost the same length as the filter. Remove that and get the water that spilled under if you can, if not, you can try getting it from the side and back of the middle part where the filter goes. After drying everything, I used a dry paper towel to make sure there's no wet areas that I missed and repeated until paper came back dry. It was just easier for me to see it in paper.
You're going to set off your fridge alarm while doing this, keep going until you're done. The faster you dry it the faster you'll be able to close it. If you touch the middle area and the paper towel is absorbing water, that means there's still water in the middle. Keep absorbing the liquid.
When you're done, insert the filter in as mentioned above then place half a paper towel on each side where the drawer normally goes. I closed the fridge and came back a couple minutes later to check if the towels got wet and they didn't.
Return the drawers and hopefully next time you replace it, it won't leak. 🤞

Does not last or bought a defective pack
on May 20, 2022
Posted by: Shawn
from Queen Creek, Arizona
this product did not serve our expectations. i understand we drink water daily but the original filter that came along with the fridge when purchased alone lasted 6 months. this pack we purchased from here we completely went through a 3 pack in less than 6 months.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
