    Product works great for my fridge. There is not a difference in this one compared to the name brand in product quality. The cheaper price is a great reason to purchase compared to name brand. I have purchased this product many times.

    This water filter for our Kenmore refrigerator works as expected and was easy to install. Make sure you read what refrigerators the filter works with before buying - we have bought incorrect one before.

    Water tastes great. It’s important to run the filter as the instructions indicate prior to enjoying the water. The instructions clearly indicate you will get micro contaminants if you don’t purge the recommended amount of water. I would buy this filter again from Best Buy. The price is competitive as well.

    Our old filter quit on us last year two days before thanksgiving- water all over the floor (we hadn’t changed it in a while…). This filter was incredibly easy to install and works like a charm! Lifesaver
