Product review (5 stars): Once you have the new filter in and you've checked for leaks you will need to run a good amount of water through it to cycle out
This water filter, though it did not come with install instructions, was incredibly simple to replace. Simply remove the existing filter and screw this unit in its place.

I did have a small amount of leaking when I removed my original LG filter but after installing the new part my fridge was as dry as a bone.

Once you have the new filter in and you've checked for leaks you will need to run a good amount of water through it to cycle out any Carbon particles that may be floating freely. Give yourself a decent amount of time to run a good 3 to 5 gallons of water through your filter before you continue regular use and consumption.

I tried to provide as many photos of the details as I could because honestly when I look at reviews I first go to the photos to see the real life image of the item as I have found sometimes the stock photos can misrepresent what you're buying.

I received this product at a discount in exchange for my honest review. It is also important to note that I did not receive any kind of compensation for my review and I do not have any connection or relationship to the seller. I rely heavily on product reviews when making a large majority of my purchases thats why my written opinion is always honest and unbiased whether I recieve a product at a discount or pay full price.
