    Does not fit

    I bought this OEM refridgerator filter for my Samsung refridgerator, it was the correct model# for this fridge but would fit in the housing. I tried to install it several ways, I did not want to break the housing, so I tried to return the filter to purchase a insigna brand filter that fits fine with no issues but was told they would not take back the Samsung filter because it was opened. I feel that spending $55.00 on an OEM product it should fit. There is obviously an issue with the Samsung filter because it will not engage and lock into place.

    Samsung is the only supplier of the filter for their refrig. They are approx. $45 each. they are too expensive and can never be installed per their instructions. I had to call Samsung over and over.

    Samsung Refrigerator Water Filter

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I ordered this filter after confirming it was supposedly the correct filter for my Samsung refrigerator model. I could not install it and neither could a repair technician. According to the technician, this is a common problem with Samsung refrigerators. Instead, another brand of filter has to be used.

    This was allegedly the proper filter for my Samsung fridge. They absolutely assured me that it would fit and work. The computer said so. This was after I returned another filter for not fitting. However, the hole is not big enough to make a connection. I have to drill what looks to be a 1/4" hole to make it work. Not happy.

    I cannot get this new filter into the housing. This is the first time I've had this problem. I tried that "'fully unlock the housing' procedure" here https://www.samsung.com/us/support/troubleshooting/TSG01109722. It just slides down as I rotate left. I even pulled the top shelf to give me more room to wrestle it.

    It is hard to install because the instructions are vague and difficult to follow. It is equally hard to unscrew once you need to replace it.

    Not your fault. Samsung has changed the notches so the filter does not fit the housing. Same part number. There is information all over the internet. The last 3 filters with the same part number all had different notch pattern & you dont know that until you take the plastic off the cap.

    Recently, if you check my orders, I had to purchase two filters. One was defective. I thought the water filtration system needed repair but the serviceman said it was the filter. I couldn't return it because he cut off two tiny protruding ends trying to get it to function properly.

    The water filter has changed and it no longer fits my Samsung refrigerator. I have purchased three different brands. Then went online and saw where other customer are complaining of the same problem. Why would they change the make of the model of the filter? What am I suppose to do for a water filter now?

    The filter produces bad taste like medicine. I followed the procedure written in the box to dispense 3 to 4 gallons of water before using or drinking but still it taste bad. Also the lock indicator doesn't fit the lock indicator in my fridge now. I dont know why, but this is the same compatible filter brand and type I'm using since 2009 for my Samsung refrigerator
