    Does a great job of filtering and easily replaces the LG Filter. I was able to prime and install in less a few minutes. Since LG discontinues this size, it is great to know Best Buy has it.

    This water filter is a good less expensive option than the original water filter that is usually purchased for the refrigerator. I was very doubtful at first that it would be as good as the traditional filter I purchase but it is great.

    Works Perfectly and it was a lot better to buy the two at a single time, they were delivered to my home in a few days and it was perfect timing!. I would recommend this version which made me save some dollars.

    This filter does its job well. I have my LG refrigerator and this filter gives me clean water, it does not change the taste of the water. I have the subscription and Best Buy sends me my filter every 6 months automatically.
