Product review (1 stars): Not NSF Standard 42 or 53 Certified through WQA
I have been searching for a cheaper alternative for my GE refrigerator filter that meets health standards 42 and 53, as defined by the NSF.  For those that are unaware, "NSF-certified filters have been independently tested to show that they can reduce levels of certain pollutants under specified conditions. Those that meet standard 53 are geared toward treating water for health, not just for aesthetic qualities" (standard 42 is defined as "aesthetic qualities", which basically means it filters chlorine and makes water taste better). In researching this product, I found that it is not Standard 42 or 53 certified through the Water Quality Association (WQA).  This product boasts the seal of the WQA, but if you search Swift products under the WQA website, this filter "is certified for materials safety only."

I do not own this product, but after spending a good amount of time researching it as a viable alternative to more expensive standard 42/53 filters, I wanted to share my findings to hopefully prevent others with the same expectations as myself from wasting their time considering this product.
