Product review (1 stars): This filter did not work for a GE MWF .
This was supposed to be a direct replacement for a GE MWF refrigerator water filter but I had trouble after installing it. It installed easily enough, seemed a perfect fit but when I tried to use I heard strange sounds coming from it. I thought maybe it was simply air being flushed out of system but it got to the point where water wouldn't come out while trying to flush filter. So I removed filter and a great deal of air pressure had built up in filter and jumped out of housing. I tried a few more times with the same result. So I replaced the original with zero problems. In comparing this one with the original it's quite obvious that the orifice is much smaller on this filter than the original, is this the reason or do I have a defective filter?  I don't know but I would avoid purchasing this filter to replace a GE MWF .
