Comments about GE GE SmartWater Filter Cartridge (MWF, GWF):

It was efficient and easy to order the replacement filter, but I would like to see GE also put in place a system for recycling the old filters. It is a shame to have them all end up in landfills. This is the only reason your product did not earn a 5 star rating.

We as a society need to design recycling processes into all our products as a part of research and development..

Comments about GE GE SmartWater Filter Cartridge (MWF, GWF):

While I was in another state, I ordered this for my 80 year old mother. I had to leave before I could install it, but my sister was visiting my Mom and installed it for her.My mother said it was so simple to install that she could have done it herself if my sister hadn't been there. She's in poor health and very weak, so if she could do it, you know it's easy to install![...]

Comments about GE GE SmartWater Filter Cartridge (MWF, GWF):

I use a testing device that shows impurities in the water. My tests showed nothing was removed from the water using the SmartWater filter. Other filters removed as much as 100% of the impurities.

GE SmartWater Filter Cartridge(MWF,GWF)
By CandyVerified Purchaser from Phoenix, AZ on 9/30/2008
Pros:
Complete Filtration, Easy to Maintain, Good Tasting Water, Works Quickly
Cons:
Filter Replacement
Best Uses:
Drinking, Soup, Tea
Describe Yourself:
Casual Cook
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about GE GE SmartWater Filter Cartridge (MWF, GWF):

I live in Phoenix AZ and all of my ice is through this filter and I use a ton of ice. It is comforting to have clean filtered water for my ice and drinking water that actually tastes good. It is very convenient and used daily right in the door to my refrigerator.

I really don't like having to change the filter every six months but if you weigh the pros and cons it is really a very limited drawback, especially since I found a place to order them online.

Comments about GE GE SmartWater Filter Cartridge (MWF, GWF):

This water filter is great. [...]is easy to install. The water tastes great and pours into your glass quickly. The only complaint I have is the price. It is expensive and lasts less than 6 months. It tells you it is good for 6 months but we use a lot of water so it lasts about 5 months for us and it gets quite expensive to purchase two times a year.
