Product review (4 stars): Fits and Works Just Like Name Brand, But At A Much Lower Price!
I compared this to our Samsung brand filter and noticed it's about 1/4 inch taller, but luckily this doesn't affect its fitment.  It snugged up tight and doesn't leak, allow filter media pass through into my glass, or deliver any offtasting water.  It works as promised at a much better price. What more could you ask for?  I suppose the taller height might cause issues with some people, depending on the location of your filter mount and what refrigerated items may be stored underneath that filter, but I have no clearance issues in my French door Samsung.  I like that it comes with stick-on dates to keep track of its age, however my fridge has a filter life readout on the ice dispenser, so this is not needed for me.  Unless I missed it, our Samsung filter replacement doesn't come with these.

Shipping was a bit odd, as it came in a thin plastic shipping bag (much like single t-shirts or a pair of jeans are), and inside the shipping bag was the filter in one little bubble wrap pouch with no box.  Definitely not a lot of protection, and the filter itself is shrink-wrapped, so it's not like you're left wondering if you just bought a used filter, but it definitely doesn't seem like there's a lot of protection against damages during shipping.  Luckily, I've experienced none so far in the 2 days I've had it.

I did receive this filter at a discount in exchange for my honest review, but this has no influenced my opinion in any way shape or form.  I test fit and am currently using this filter.
