Can I use an off brand water filter? And Is cleaning the fingerprint resistant stainless steel the same as regular stainless steel? null

Hi Moonlight, we would recommend using the EveryDrop® Whirlpool Brand Water Filter, as it was designed for this specific Whirlpool - 26.2 Cu. Ft. 4-Door French Door Refrigerator. As for cleaning, we would recommend affresh® Stainless Steel cleaner as well as following the Use and Care Instructions on caring for your Refrigerator. Thank you for your question!

If you are not on well water the filter will last a lot longer than the indicator shows. If you buy a $60 fridge filter every time whirlpool tells you, you’ll be like the oil changing shop telling you to come back in 3000 miles. Insane. (And yet you never change the $6 fuel filter that does need it)

I just use filtered water and a soft towel to clean the outside. Frankly, it hardly ever shows any dirt. Very easy to keep clean. I’d use the recommended filter. On previous fridges, I tried the off brands and got a hard water clog.
