Product review (5 stars): A great water filter for my Whirlpool side-by-side refrigerator and freezer.
I moved to Stillwater, Oklahoma four years ago. The first thing I noticed about the water that came out of the faucet was that it was very hard, and had a distinct odor and flavor to it. Fortunately, our new house came with a good quality Whirlpool fridge/freezer that boasted an ice maker and chilled water dispenser. I've been using this particular replacement filter all this time, and the ice cubes always look clear and are free of any odor, and the chilled water has no discernable odor or taste to it. To be honest, I don't change the filter every six months as recommended (I'm kind of lazy about such things), but I'll know that it's time to replace the filter when the water coming out of the dispenser slows to a trickle, or the ice maker can no longer keep up with demand. That's when I go to Amazon and order another filter; and in a couple of days the filter arrives, I slap it into place, and once more all is good. In short, I've been very satisfied with this product and intend to continue using it; in fact, I added it to my public wish list so that it will be easier to find in the future.
