    This is my second time purchasing this filter for the fridge and I will continue purchasing this product. Works very well and for about 40% the cost of name brand.

    This replacement water filter for my GE refrigerator works just as good or better than the GE brand replacement. Easy to install and fits perfectly. This fridge is a garage fridge so we don't use it for drinking water but we do utilize the ice maker that uses water from this filter. The ice tastes fine. It's definitely worth it to save some money on these filters.

    Bought this filter to replace the old one in my side by side GE refrigerator and it fit perfectly. No issues to install and so far no issues with operation. Granted I have not requested a lab analysis on the water but I also did not do with the one from the original brand. Water tastes good and flow is also good. One instruction that was not included on this item was to submerge the filter in water ahead of the installation, which I believe is no big deal, the only thing is that during the preparation part you will hear the air being replaced by water while pouring water.

    I have been buying a name brand water filter all this years. I decided to try buy best buy essentials for half the price and I am sure glad I did. It does the same job for less.
