Product review (5 stars): Can't beat them for the money
I used to let the LG filter go a little longer than the 6 month time that was on the fridge to save money.  I purchase the 3 pack for the price of one LG filter and they seem to work just as well as the LG branded one.  I read the reviews that there was problems with the taste of the water with theses filters and had my reservations on using them.  I put my filter in and flushed the filter out, until the water was clear and there was no more air in the system.  The filter works just as good as the LG one it replaced!
