Product review (5 stars): Great replacement filter
So glad we found this filter.  I double checked the model number combatibility with our Kenmore Elite fridge before purchasing.  It arrived new in packaging, with plastic cap under plastic wrap.  It was easy to remove old filter and insert new filter.  Flushed new filter for recommended time and some blackish/gray residue came out.  No worries, doing what it should.  Great price and product.
