    Very happy with the Best Buy essentialsTM brand. No reason to spend 40% more for the manufacturer's product. Wasn't in a hurry so opted for the free delivery; the product was received within a couple of days.

    I was worried about not getting the GE Brand filter, but it was in stock in the store so I gave it a try. I'm so glad I did. It fits perfectly, the water tastes great, and it's much cheaper than the GE version. I will definitely buy this again.

    I didn’t expect to find a filter to fit my refrigerator at Best Buy and for less than ordering from the manufacturer. It fit perfectly and no issues so far.
