Product review (1 stars): A complete dud for us.
I have been very reticent to try one of these, as the reviews are somewhat spotty.  But for the cost difference - about 5X, we decided to give it a try.  It did shudder a bit when it was first plugged in and was filling with water, something I don't recall happening with the OEM filter, but it pretty quickly settled down and seemed to be working fine.  However, we soon noticed we were no longer getting ice.  So I took out the filter and put in the bypass plug, and voila, we were getting ice again.  So this was a complete dud for us.
