Product review (4 stars): You will not need to replace it every six months as recommended, but can squeeze a few more months time ...
Getting filtered water is something that most people want to drink over water form the tap.  Rather than go out and spend money each day on bottled water or a water filtration  machine, simply purchase this water filter from Samsung.  You will not need to replace it every six months as recommended, but can squeeze a few more months time out of this filter.  When you bought the fridge it came with this feature of dispensing filtering water.  Drinking your suggested daily 8 cups of filtered water each will certainly be more cost effective than going out and purchasing 8 bottles of bottled water each day.  True the initial outlay of cash for the product may make you shake your head, but it breaks down to less than buying a case of filtered water every few days for six months to 8 months.  Some people drink even more water than that. It is great if you want filtered water for cooking too.
