Product review (5 stars): Tastes Good, Too
This filter is an excellent value. Some time ago, I bought all of the water filters then available for my KitchenAid refrigerator and tried them one by one. Most of the name-brand filters (likely just rebranded from the same manufacturer) developed a definite odor and taste problem as they aged. That did not happen with this filter. Not only was this filter the least expensive (some that fit my refrigerator are more than $50), the water that comes from it tastes better than any the other filters I tried. I cannot speak to how it filters contaminants, but you should not expect that from a refrigerator filter, regardless of what the manufacturers might tell you. Taste and odor filtering is about all you can expect from a filter of this size, yet I found that most of the filters out there, no matter what they cost, don't even do that very well. This one does.
