Product review (5 stars): Excellent Water Filter for Samsung Refrigerator - works great & tastes great
I purchased this filter for my Samsung refrigerator. I was able to install it easily and it fit well without any issues. The instructions it comes with is well written and understandable unlike other products coming from China.

Tip:  To keep the filter from sputtering after just installing it you can pre-fill it with water before installing it. This will minimize the air in the lines and reduce the noise as it cycles through. If you don't pre-fill it its ok too it will just make more noise initially. Once all the air is out of the hose it is will noise free. Also, since these filters use carbon as the filtration mechanism make sure you run at least a 3-4 gallons of water through it to wash out some of the loose carbon particles. Don't be surprised to find carbon particles in the water in the initial gallon of water. This is normal and went away after the 1st gallon. After running 3 gallons through the filter it I tested the water and it was particle free and tasted fresh without any kind of taste to it. I also tested the flow rate of the newly installed filter and it was at 63 fl-oz per minute, right on par with the specified .5 gallons/min.  Overall this is a great product and would purchase this again in the future without hesitation.

Cons:
-None.

Pros:
-Easy to install
-Fit perfectly
-Didn't leak
-Measured actual flow rate was per specification
-Less costly than OEM
-Filtration worked as intended.... No floaties/particles in the water after the 1st gallon through it
-Water was fresh tasting and didn't have a noticeable taste to it
