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.

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.
inexpensive and works well

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.

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.

Filter worked great until I turned the water off and took the filter out. As I unscrewed the filter there was a loud pop as pressure was released and there was also some squirting of residual water.

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.

Since GE discontinued my fridge filter, I had to buy this Brita replacement filter instead. It fits my fridge perfectly and works like a charm. Plus, this website is cheaper than Home Depot, Lowe's and GE's website.[...]. I will definitely order from here again.
