Product review (5 stars): My concerns were unfounded
I was reluctant to purchase these filters because of the significant price difference between them and the Samsung brand filters, but I decided that it was just too much of a savings to pass it up.  I opened the package and installed the filter in exactly the same fashion as I had done with the name brand.  It was very uneventful, just as I hoped...works great, and no difference whatsoever.  This is one of those rare purchases where the big price difference does not mean a drop-off in quality.  Don't hesitate to make this purchase.
