Product review (5 stars): I highly recommend this filter
I was hesitant about ordering this filter due to reviews stating that it provided foul-tasting water, but decided to give it a try anyway.  At first I thought I was going to regret it, but so far I'm glad I did.  After installing the filter and running about three gallons of water through it, I did notice the after-taste mentioned in some of the reviews, but luckily it disappeared after about 24 hours.  Now it I get fresh, clear, great tasting water.

Also, the water flow through this filter is faster than the Maytag filter.

I'm not sure how or what caused the foul-taste to disappear, maybe running an additional two or three gallons through it would have prevented it to begin with, but I'm completely satisfied with the water this filter provides and will order again.
