I have a side by side Frigidaire, and replacing the filter was going to cost me around $70. Really not affordable for me as I live on a farm with well water that has a lot of minerals and sulfur in it and my water filter needs replacing more than if I had city water. Yes, my water smells like "eggs" straight from the facet. Not fun.
When I seen this charcoal filter, I had to give it a go.This water filter was longer than the factory filter that came with my refrigerator, but the diameter is the same. It slid right in, replacing my clogged up filter with ease. The water flow from my refrigerator had become nothing but a trickle that took several minutes to fill up a 16 oz container. After putting this replacement filter in, it now takes about 30 seconds to fill the same 16 oz container.
Due to it being a charcoal filter, some charcoal dust was in the first 2 containers (16 oz each) that I filled up. This is normal for this type of filter, and after the initial flushing of the filter the water ran clear. The third 16 oz bottle was clear and tasty. I have been using this filter for about a week (with my "stinky" well water, all drinking water is pulled from the refrigerator dispenser) and I have had no further issues with the charcoal dust.
This filter is amazing, there is no sulfur smell in the water from the refrigerator dispenser and my automatic ice maker is now producing clear ice again. The water filter that came (from the factory) with my refrigerator did not work this well brand new. I am highly impressed, my water tastes better than bottled water now. I will be purchasing my filters from this company in the future as the price is very affordable, even on a fixed income.
* I received this filter in exchange for my honest review.*
