This filter is so easy to install. You just untwist, push, and twist again to tighten. The water from the dispenser on my Samsung fridge tastes so much better. Just a tip: After replacing your filter with the new one I would fill up a couple of gallons of water just to filter out anything that’s left from the old one. I’ve seen imitation ones on Amazon but you have to be careful because they may be cheap but the description isn’t the same. Purchasing from BestBuy was way cheaper than going through the manufacturer of this filter brand too. Other than I feel this filter is tried and true. I would definitely buy this again.... from BestBuy that is!

Ive been using this filter for years and have never had a problem. The water tastes good and it lasts longer than my set replenish time which is 6 months. Easy to install and remove to replace as well.

The water tasted much better and the ice was a lot clearer!

Well, it's a fridge filter. It's the name brand one so you assume it's the best to get for your fridge. One installation tip though: if possible, shut off the water supply to the fridge first, then unscrew the old filter and replace it. Don't forget to turn the water back on! Whenever I would leave the water on to change the filter it would break something in the water delivery system of my fridge. Samsung had to come out twice to fix it! (Good thing I got the Geek Squad protection!) The second time they came out, they recommended shutting off the water first and since then it has worked everytime.

Great filter and water tastes great! Was also able to get delivered same day which is always a plus!

We bought our new fridge about seven months ago, and right on schedule, the water filter needed replacing last month. We looked online to buy it from the Samsung site. The filter was quite a bit cheaper than the same one at Best Buy, but when you figure in the shipping charge, it would have cost more. So, we just bit the bullet and purchased it from the store. In this particular fridge, it was very easy to install the new filter. No issues with installation. They are pricey, but you gotta have it. We can't comment on the filter's longevity sInce we've only had it about a month, but hopefully it will go the six month estimate.

Works well and for just as long as it says, 6 months!

I bought two of these filters - one to install now and one for a spare. I put one in (it takes about 5 seconds to insert it and give it a half twist to the right to install it, and then I followed the instructions of running about a gallon of water through it. You really do need to run this amount of water through it so get all of the air out of it so you get a smooth stream of filered water coming out. I then reset the change filter light - you have to do this manually but all it takes is pressing and holding for 5 seconds (not the 3 seconds they tell you) the child lock/filter reset spot on the bottom left corner of the touch control screen just above the water/ice dispenser. It works great now - tasty filtered water and flavorless crushed ice from my fancy refrigerator any time I want it.

I have purchased, what I thought were authentic filters from other sites, but they would have problems during operation. I have later found that they were not authentic, and now see why Samsung includes ways to verify authenticity on these filters now. These work well with my fridge and perform excellently.

I know water filters aren't exactly exciting, but they are important to providing you and your family clean water. There are always less expensive options you can buy, but I'm not one for taking a chance on using anything other than genuine replacement filters for my refrigerator. It can't be easier to replace the filter. Simply unscrew the filter you have, remove it, then insert and tighten the new filter. It is recommended you flow a few quarts of water through after you've replaced the filter to get any air out from the replacement process. Then you're good to go till your notified it's time for a new replacement.

Fit like a charm easy to install had no problems at all.

The filter is a good quality, its easy to install, and it makes the water taste great. It's a little on the expensive side, but if you have a Samsung refrigerator its the best filter to use.

We had originally purchased the insignia water filter for our Samsung refrigerator. While the filter "worked", it caused various issues with refrigerator. The insignia filter never seemed to regulate water correctly which led to water being dispensed slowly and ice making being made on irregular intervals. When it came time to change the filter we went back to the Samsung brand filter and within 2 days all of our issues had gone away. Water is colder and dispenses more quickly and we have no more issues with ice. It could have been that the insignia filter we had was have been defective but we will likely stick with the OEM Samsung filters for our fridge going forward.

Good filter for the fridge. Water is not to hard and water is magically awesome

Easy to install and samsung has great quality and simple operation

Apparently the good thing about Samsung refrigerators is that you only need to know if it's a long, skinny water filter or not. Apparently there are only two kinds. When I bought this in the store, I was holding my phone with a picture of the water filter on Amazon to show the Best Buy worker, and he saw it and took me to the same filter in the store. And he also said, are you doing a price match? And checked me out with the cheaper online price, quick and easy. Very observant and efficient employee they have there. And the water filter itself is easy to install, located at the front of the refrigerator so you don't need to take all kinds of stuff out of your refrigerator in order to install it, like some other refrigerator brands.

I have never had any problems with this water filter in seven years of changes.

Does a great job, the water tastes great! Never had a problem with this product.

We drink alot of water, having a filter is essential

This filter, of course, is required for my Samsung refrigerator-freezer water and ice dispenser. I subscribed with Best Buy for the water filter. The filter arrives on time and I change the filter and all is good!
