Product review (5 stars): The new filter was very easy to remove from its clamshell packaging
I purchased this filter to replace an old one in my Whirlpool refrigerator. This is a factory filter designed to work with Whirlpool Corporation brand refrigerators (Maytag, KitchenAide, Amana). The new filter was very easy to remove from its clamshell packaging. Replacing it with my old one was easy and the filter fit perfectly. While there are off brand filters that are cheaper I was comfortable paying a premium for a quality, factory part that would just work.
