    This requires maximum pressure to insert--don't be too gentle. There are only 2 of us , we have a whole house water filtration system and this still only lasted 5 months. Seems rather short. Price was right.

      Hi Easeofshopping.

      Thank you for bringing this to our attention. I see you have difficulties with water flow with a new water filter. I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this has caused you. Please know that we value your feedback. We will continue working on improving the quality of the products we offer.

      The refrigerator requires water pressure of at least 30 psi. Most city water is around 60 psi; however, filtering systems such as reverse osmosis can significantly reduce water pressure.

      Here are some links for more details about the filter and water not dispensing.

      Hello SkyyM,

      Thank you for reaching out. We will take note of your feedback as this helps us improve more especially on the quality of the products we offer.
      About the water filter in your Samsung Refrigerator
      Over time, a refrigerator water filter will become clogged with the contaminants it screens out. When this happens, particles will remain unfiltered, making Samsung refrigerator water and ice taste bad. To prevent this outcome, it's recommended that you change a refrigerator water filter every 6 months.
      For further concerns, you may reach us via the following option.
