More consumers use Brita than any other water filtration in the world. Brita's advanced filtration technology turns ordinary tap water into great-tasting Brita water. Brita is the only refrigerator filter guaranteed by Brita to improve the taste of your water. Your satisfaction is backed by Brita's 30-day money back guarantee. Will Brita filters fit my refrigerator? Yes. Brita refrigerator filters are designed to fit select Whirlpool, KitchenAid, GE, Frigidaire, Kenmore, Maytag, and Jenn-Air models. Brita refrigerator filters have been tested under the same operating specifications as refrigerator manufacturer filters. How do Brita refrigerator filters work? Water in the refrigerator is forced through a specially formulated carbon block that uses physical absorption to reduce chlorine (taste and odor) and mechanical filtration to reduce sediment for clear, great-tasting Brita water. The Brita filter also keeps a healthy level of fluoride, a water additive that promotes strong teeth in your drinking water. Operating Specifications: Operating Temperature: 33°F-100°F Operating Pressure: 40 PSI-120PSI What impurities do these filters remove? Brita filters reduce chlorine (taste and odor) and sediment. State regulations prohibit Brita from making health contaminant reduction claims since Brita doesn't manufacture the original refrigerators. Will these filters work with the filter change indicator light on my refrigerator? Yes. Brita filters are designed to work with refrigerators that have a filter change indicator light. How long do Brita filters last? Brita filters last about the same length of time as the refrigerator manufacturer filters. We recommend you change the filter when the refrigerator filter change indicator light goes on, or approximately every 6 months. How are Brita filters installed? You just have to follow the simple steps on the package and refer to the refrigerator's manual for more detailed instructions. No tools or special equipment is required. Locate and remove. Do not pull filter before turning. Fill new filter. Allows for better flow from dispenser. Align arrows and turn.

A Logical Upgrade
By Conan the LibrarianVerified Purchaser from Cartwright, ND on 11/11/2008
Pros:
Easy to install, Easy to Maintain, Good Tasting Water
Cons:
Slower than OEM
Best Uses:
Drinking, Ice Cubes, Tea
Describe Yourself:
Casual Cook
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I purchased this filter as a replacement for the original from the manufacturer of my refrigerator. I have used the Brita pitcher water filters for many years and decided to try one for the refrigerator, which has a built-in water and ice cube dispenser in the door. Not only does the Brita make the water taste much better, but ice cubes too. No more store-bought ice for cold drinks! The only real "con" I can think of is that it seems to take a bit longer to fill a glass of water, but this is likely due to a more thorough filtration process utilized by the Brita as opposed to OEM. That's a small price to pay for better-tasting water.

Service & Delivery comments:

Delivery took all of three days and that impressed me considering I live out in the boondocks of North Dakota! Packaging was tight and rattle-free, everything well-wrapped for shipping. All-in-all, a positive experience and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Filter-outlet.com to anybody interested in purchasing a filter for their refrigerator.

YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR
By Thirsty Crew from MD on 11/4/2008
Pros:
Good Tasting Water
Cons:
Slow and gets slower
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Immediately noticed the water pressure was much slower than the brand name filter that it was designed to replace. Then it got slower and slower. I'd rather pay the xtra $$ for a filter that doesn't make me wait forever.

We bought a house that came with a great fridge and I wanted to change filters to start fresh. I was a little skeptical to go against the GE filter recommended in the GE manual, but I bought this Brita from Filter-Outlet instead and am thrilled. There was an instantly noticeable improvement in water quality and I saved a bunch of money too.

If there is an issue with this filter it is probably GE's equipment problem not the filter. The filter works the same as the GE brand.

Great Product
By CharlieVerified Purchaser from Holden Beach, NC on 10/1/2008
Pros:
Complete Filtration, Good Tasting Water, Works Quickly
Best Uses:
City Water, Coffee, Drinking
Describe Yourself:
Avid Cook
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

We use the filtered water principally for espresso/cappuccino coffee in the morning and drinking water with meals. Our old filter (GE MWF) did not last very long at all - maybe three months. We noticed one morning that the cappuccino just did not taste right. We had a glass of water to see if it that was the problem and it tasted really funky (technical term for bad tasting water). The Brita replacement cleared that up after the initial set up. Great filter and great price from filter-outlet[@] I will be a return customer without question.

I was a little apprehesive purchasing the non-GE version of this filter, but because of the price difference I decided to give it a try. Although it made a weird noise upon installation, it has been working perfectly. I would highly recommend this product. Next time I will order the 3 pack and save even more!

Hi,
I'm glad you sent me this, I'm not sure about this filter, it is the 1st time I use it. I cant get the water flow to stay steady, it comes and goes. I have to remove the fiter and reinsert it to work properly, I was not experiencing this prior to this filter. I followed the instruction and filled it with water first. Is there something else I can do so that it can work properly?

I used this filter to replace the GE GWF filter. It is a perfect fit, and I have no complaints except for it makes a little bit more noise than the one from GE, but hey, my bed is not in the kitchen so I dont care!! Otherwise it is perfect and I would recommend it because it works all the same and it costs less than the one from GE.
