Product review (5 stars): ALWAYS STICK TO FACTORY ORIGINAL PARTS!! They cost a bit more up front, but last longer in the end!
I am  skeptical after reading several reviews for off-brands that are available on Amazon. So, I went ahead and got the Kenmore Original Part. I know its a bit more in price when compared to other off-brands that say they are the same. But, after reading peoples horror stories and their complaints, I chose the Original One! Our water is super clean here in the Florida Keys, so we only change ours about once a year. Glad to see that I can still find a filter for a 2007 Kenmore fridge (they still use this filter in some current appliances)
