Product review (4 stars): my water is clear and taste great, and I have not had any leaks or ...
I purchased these filters in lieu of the Kenmore brand.  Though I have nothing to compare them to, as this is the first refrigerator I've owed with a built-in filtering system, I found if you follow the directions and run water through to clear out carbon residue, my water is clear and taste great, and I have not had any leaks or drips since installation.  I feel this was a great deal compared to the cost of the Kenmore brand filters!
