Product review (4 stars): Our 2nd one in 12 months and we love it! 
Filter seems a little lighter than the OEM filter we have had with our Maytag refrigerator. It fits perfectly and the water comes out fast, now. Water does not have any chlorine taste. You do have to run a lot of water through the filter (5 or more pitchers) but knowing what is in these filters, it makes sense. It's dust from the minerals they use. All normal. We absolutely love this finger. Saves us hundreds of $$ a year not buying the Maytag brand.
