Product review (2 stars): Plastic-Like Taste Increases Over Time
I had high hopes when I found this water filter because it was significantly cheaper than official LG filter.  At first, it seemed to perform the same as the name brand filter.  However, within a couple of weeks the water began to have a plastic-like taste.  The flavor has progressively gotten worse.  I did not do any analytical testing.  From a particulate and toxicity perspective, it may perform as well as the official filter.  This is the only reason I am not giving it one star.
