Product review (3 stars): Works but don't like the sterile taste.
If you like water like Aquafina, you'll like this filter. I bought it for our LG french door fridge. It works great, no black stuff or other complaints on the reviews here after the initial run of 5 gallons. I did see black stuff and residue initially but that's supposed to be there so that is why you run it until it's gone (like Brita). But I'm not fond of the taste and neither is my wife... she wants me to get the LG replacement next time. We have a whole house filter and an under the sink filter that is both hooked up to the fridge. It just doesn't taste the same. No bad, but we liked the soft taste of LG original filter... kinda like Evian. Will not buy again. But the seller was fast and prompt, no complaints there.
