Product review (1 stars): Works great but overpriced and GE is heavy-handed in making you buy their filter
I'd give it 5-stars for function and form. It's easy to install and the water tastes great.

HOWEVER (!), for value and heavy-handed business practices I give it sub-1 star. $50? Seriously? So it's not enough that I buy a $2600 refrigerator from GE...they need/want a recurring revenue stream so bad they make me buy their over-priced, proprietary water filter otherwise my fridge glares at me with a red warning message that I cannot get rid of.

That burns me up, frankly. Either reduce the cost, allow me to buy an off-brand filter or allow me to turn off the warning message. I know there's a 99% chance GE reps will never read this but this filter, for me, is a deal-killer for future GE appliance purchases. If GE wants to bully people into buying overpriced water filters that's fine, but when it's time for a new refrigerator they won't be doing it to me.
