Product review (1 stars): My family says bad taste and "texture" compares to actual GE filters.
I have tried these several times (secretly).  The family complains of icky water every time, it "feels" different and definitely tastes different.  I replace with a genuine GE filter (at three times the cost, so you can see why I tried these) and Everybody notices better tasting water.  According to my family, these are Horrible and I should never buy them again.  They actually said it was better without a filter at all.
