Product review (1 stars): Do not waste your time or money on this cheap alternative
I would not ever purchase this filter again.  I would probably not put this filter in my refrigerator if it was given to me for free.  Water moves through this filter at a much faster rate than the original Kenmore.  I can only believe that it is not filtering as well.

Both my husband and I have noticed the water has a gross chlorine/chemical taste that was not there with the Kenmore filter.  We have since been drinking tap water until our Kenmore brand water filter arrives.  Do not waste your time or money on this cheap alternative.  That is exactly what it is, cheap.  Get the Kenmore filter if you want good, clean tasting water.
