Product review (5 stars): This filter seems better than the kenmore I used to use!
I've read the reviews on the alternate filters. I used to by the kenmore filters because while my fridge is a whirlpool, the kenmore ones fit just fine and there was a KMart next to me which made it easier to buy.  my local KMart doesn't have the kenmore filter anymore.  So I opted to come to Amazon, where everything is!
This Whirlpool filter seems to be very much better than the Kenmore version (I assumed they were the same)  the water flow is faster, which make sense for a new filter.
the taste of the water seems to taste better than it did with the Kenmore. I can only hope that this whirlpool filter does what it says it will do because My family loves water!
So far so good! I'll be buying the whirlpool filter from now on. It does cost more money, but you get a filter that supposedly filters more things AND is a guarenteed fit.
