Product review (5 stars): Fits right in place...
Who would have known owning a refrigerator, there would be so much up keep. They are just like owning a car you need to keep the filters changed to keep everything in tip top shape. I have a French Door Maytag Refrigerator with the freezer on the bottom and the water dispenser in the left door along with the ice cube maker. The filter is on the right hand side looking in to the refrigerator on the top with a drop down door. This is a direct fit for the Pur filter UKF8001 for my Maytag refrigerator. I know that Whirlpool and many other brands are all made under one umbrella of manufacturing just different names on their products, so I would bet that this filter fits tons of other models. All I had to do was pull down the little door at the top of the refrigerator and twist the old filter out hard to the left. Installation is just the opposite. Then I ran the water through for 5 minutes per the instructions and my new filter is ready. When you first start running the water through it may be slightly dark tinted from the charcoal in the filter, so don't be alarmed at that. The flow is as good as the original and the taste of water is great, NOTHING!!, just like it's suppose to be. I know that I have spent at least $40.00 on the last filter I bought for my Maytag and now that I know there are alternatives, I will not go back to buying overpriced name brand filters. Great product at a great price.
