Product review (5 stars): Item is the GE Product
My local hardware store is always sold out of this item when I need it.  I was unable to purchase it from Lowes in the store or online and I have done for years.

My refrigerator will not make ice without a filter.  This item IS the GE product - works as it says and was a few dollars cheaper online.  I did purchase a generic filter in the past and it didn't last as long and I noticed that my ice had an odd smell to it.  Will continue to spend the extra money for the GE item in the future.
