Product review (5 stars): Great replacement filter
Bought this filter to replace an original Maytag UKF8001 filter. The new EcoBlueLife filter fits and works great. First there was a strange taste like the filter was not working, but after filling few water bottles, the taste was gone. My recommendation would be to fill a jug with water after the filter was put in (which recommendation easily could have been on the box, I just did not read it)

The strange taste is back! It certainly does not taste like filtered water. When it is cold, it is somewhat better, but when at room temperature, it tastes almost chemically.... We did not have this problem with the original filter, too bad it is not available any longer. I don't think I would buy this product again.
