Product review (5 stars): ... a filter that cost so much less than the recommended filter be any good
One has to think how can a filter that cost so much less than the recommended filter be any good?  After reading numerous reviews I took a chance to try one out. The removal of the original filter was firmly installed. But it does come out with minimal effort. Installing this replacement filter I did notice that the fit is not as tight. I figured I would just keep an eye out on any leaks. It's been several weeks now and no issues. As for the taste..... Absolutely fine for us. If this filter holds up for the months ahead I will not have any issues continuing to use it! So try it it.
