Product review (5 stars): Does exactly what you want it to.
I have been suckered in by generic fridge water filters because of the cheaper price.  When I've used up those cheapie filters, I'm going back to buying the real thing.  This filter removes all "off" tastes from our water (which smells highly chlorinated and tastes chemical-y unfiltered) and the generics just don't do the job as well.  In this case, it's worth paying more for the name brand.
