Product review (4 stars): a terrific value for the price!
At around the $50 mark, three of these filters are less than the price of two made by Samsung! It has always been a sticking point for me to pay over $30 for a single filter that is intended to only be used for 6 months. I'll take buy 2 get 1 free any day of the week. Well, I have been pleased with the results with this brand after 5 months use. I am on a lower pressure system (a well) and this filter allows the water to flow more freely through my filtered water dispenser, as it only trickled using the Samsung branded product.  I have not experienced any noticeable flavors or odors while using this brand (as others have commented). I give this a recommended rating!
