Product review (4 stars): Good alternative to OEM Filter
I used this item to replace the OEM filter that was provided with my refrigerator. When I first installed it, it looked like it wasn't the correct size because water was leaking. However here's what worked for me: When I put in the filter my fridge seemed to build pressure which I guess is from the water line. Well instead of pushing in the filter immediately (which is what I did when it was leaking) I pushed in the filter until I no longer felt the pressure pushing back. At this point it was a little harder to turn the filter into the locked position but then it locked in place. After that no leaks and seems to be working as described. My fridge is a Samsung RS261MDBP which was purchased in 2014 (yes, I hadn't changed out the OEM filter since it was purchased!!).
