Product review (1 stars): Beware: DO NOT BUY!!
Shortly after moving into my home, I ordered a GE branded MWF filter from Amazon (had no idea how much they cost but for convenience sake paid $45)... replaced it, and it worked perfectly. Six or seven months later, here we are: I bought this POS Aqua Crest filter for around $11 on Amazon to give it a try. I installed it immediately upon delivery, following the directions to a T (it's not rocket science and actually very simple). Within two days, the fridge was making a weird sound that it's never made before (I'd notice it just standing at my kitchen sink not touching the fridge at all) and once all the ice that was in the freezer's resivoir was gone, there was NO ICE left!! Sooooo- this crappy filter apparently doesn't communicate with the ice maker? Hmmmm. Coincidence? I think not!
I contacted Amazon, who wants me to send them back this used POS that will leak water along the way, which makes no sense to me... why do they want this $11 used filter returned, but have not wanted me to return perfectly good tent stakes and other usable things when I've initiated a return/refund? Seems odd. Anyway, I initiated the return and immediately ordered the GE brand MWF filter yesterday morning (price is $35 today- my lucky day I guess- seems odd that the price fluctuates like that in 6 months time... cool Amazon... really cool) and it was delivered to my door yesterday afternoon (did they know I was pissed? lol)... I immediately installed it (again- following the instructions to a T) and the sound has gone away and as of this morning have ice again!! Moral of the story: DO NOT BUY the Aqua Crest brand filter!! These filters are fool-proof to install (at least in my fridge they are)... so what it boils down to is that this product is CRAP!!! I will now be shopping around to find a more stable price on the GE brand filter I guess, because I live in Florida and can NOT live without ice... even for two days!!!
