This is not so much a review of a water filter as it is a review about how easy it is to get on AMAZON and order a water filter.

This is currently being sold for ~$69.00?!!!!
Best Buy (which is a misnomer – should be “Priced High”) sells them for $45.00 and ValueFilters sells them for $38.00. Shop elsewhere until the price comes down.

The filter I received gave the water a metallic or iodine taste (a little like band-aids). The instructions that came along with it direct you to run water through it for five minutes when installing it- a nearly impossible task unless your refrigerator has a drain system (mine doesn’t). After running countless gallons of water through it, the taste remains.
Samsung refused to allow a return on the item because I was outside of the return policy.
I would not risk this filter, and would recommend bypassing it altogether with an in-line filter from another, more reputable company. Whatever contaminated my filter *fortunately* tasted bad, so I knew to not use it- but what if the contaminants had been orderless or tasteless?

This item is sold at SamsungParts for $34.91. I expected to get it cheaper from Amazon than getting it directly from Samsung… even it is offered by third party.

Received my replacement filter from Filters Fast and it took less that a minute to install. Filter works great. Water tastes great. Highly recommend this product.
