    Plastic taste.

    The filtered water has a plastic taste even after several months of use, while the tap water tastes fine. This is most likely due to plasticizers leaching from the plastic enclosure.

      We are sorry to hear you are having this experience. We recommend removing the filter and installing your by-pass plug until you are able to get a new filter. If you continue to have issues, please take advantage of your warranty and reach out to Bodewell Service by calling 1-833-426-3393. Thank you! Joyce@GEAppliances GE_Appliances

    Pretty sure I was sold a used one as the “new “ one was heavier than the one I just took out of my refrigerator that I used for 6 months. I returned it and did get a new unused one, but still not cool.

    Genuine part, missing the RFID tag to tell the fridge that its a genuine part... Fridge won't dispense water... First printers, now fridges. Awesome.

    I have used this filter since my purchase made 2022 July and have been changing it regularly. However, this time even after following all steps and draining more than 10 gallons water tastes awful! I even got sick and since then have stopped drinking it and use water bottles now. Even now it tastes like some metal and bitter.
