Product review (5 stars): Exact OEM replacement
One downside to modern refrigerators with their ice makers and water dispensers is the need for frequent water filter replacement.

And I agree completely with the complaints about the cost of these filters. Almost fifty bucks!! Good grief!

Well, for our new Whirlpool side-by-side, it had just beeped at me that a new filter was needed and so I took the easy way out. This filter is the proper Pr replacement for the original W 10295370A filter. The price here is not any lower than what I was able to find it anyplace else, but it is the real deal, not a cheap knock-off or copy. It comes in the proper packaging and there is no doubt but that it is the real thing (I ordered it from Appliance Cove; the Amazon price would have been slightly more and tax would have been added).

I may do some checking in the future to see if I can find a lower priced alternative. Surely there is something less expensive. But in the meantime, this is the proper replacement, and at least I know I won't have to worry about the quality of the thing.
