Product review (4 stars): And he was quite happy to use it
After finding out it won't work on my LG refrigerator, I loaned it to my neighbor who has a Kenmore that accepts this kind of filter. He mentioned that he did not see any difference in water quality or odor or anything of note. And he was quite happy to use it. I personally feel to be able to sell any such product officially in the USA, they must have met the bare minimum standards. I do agree with other reviewers though, if you want complete peace of mind, get the official water filter.

I personally feel if you have a large kitchen, nothing like getting the fresh water 20 gallon bottle and putting on dispenser. Headache free, guaranteed good water :)
