Product review (3 stars): Decent
I have pretty good water in my community, and only use this because my wife is afraid of city water.  I don't mind doing whatever it takes to keep her drinking water, but don't love the price of a brand new filter from the manufacturer.  My fridge is fairly new (1.5 years old), and the piping to it is about the same age, but with this filter I can detect kind of a plastic taste, and a bit of a similar smell, regardless of the cup I use.

That is in comparison with the stock filter sold at Lowe's, made my the refrigerator manufacturer, which I bought the first time, that had no smell or taste.

For the price, I'm sure it is filtering out the bad chemicals (should probably put that in quotes, but I digress), and I can deal with the slight smell and taste.
