I decided to replace the original filter on my GE refrigerator after about 10 months when the "change filter" light came on. I went to the local hardware store and found a replacement for $49 plus tax. It seemed expensive, so I decided to check Amazon instead and found these along with the OEM GE filters.I was reluctant to try a filter other than the GE just to save a few bucks, but if they are identical, why waste money? Besides, Brita is probably better known than GE for filters. Anyway, the filter looks, fits and works just like the original. I have noticed no difference in water flow or noise. The water tastes clean and looks clear.One note - as per the instructions you should pre-fill the filter at the tap before installation and then run about 10 glasses of water through the new filter before use to stabilize the flow.As for the vendor - Fridge Filters, I found that you cannot track their packages online as you can with most things purchased from Amazon, but the filter arrived in Florida 4 days after my order was placed. I gave the product and the vendor 5 stars, not that I get particularly excited about a water filter, but there were no negatives to take a star away.
You wouldn't think installing a water filter in a refrigerator is rocket science but apparently some people have had trouble with these filters. We use them and haven't had any trouble. If you follow the instructions you won't have any either. They're pretty straightforward:- Fill the new filter with water. Tap the sides of the filter and add water if necessary, until the bubbles stop coming up.- After the new filter is installed, run the water dispenser for 3 minutes.It's that simple. We still get a few minor sputters after running the dispenser but that goes away quickly. The flow doesn't seem any less than through a new GE filter and the water tastes fine.To remember when to change it write the date on the filter with a permanent marker after the filter's installed (so you can see the date clearly).
I have replaced my filter twice already and am looking for a third (4th if you count the one the frig came with). First replacement was with the GE filter and second was with this Brita. I never noticed any slow flows or louder than normal sounds. Water doesn't taste any better or worse than with the GE filter. I stumbled accross these reviews looking for another replacement. I think I will go back to a GE model just to try and make another comparison. This review probably isn't that helpful except to say that the thing worked fine for me.I have had the GE brand filter in for a while now and it is definitely true that the Brita filter flows noticeably slower. Still can't taste any difference in water. In the future I will go with whichever one I find is the cheapest.
I've used Brita filters many times for other applications, so was excited to find this one to replace the OEM GE filter at a much better price. I'm somewhat disappointed with it however, in that I've only had it a few weeks and can already detect a slight taste in the water. My last GE filter lasted 11 months before I could taste anything. Let me note, however, that this slight taste is not horrible by any means, and I can only tell it's there when I let the water sit for a short time and warm up to room temp. I'm pretty sensitive to water taste, so most people probably would never even notice it.Several other reviews indicated that the water flow is not the same as the GE MWF. I noticed a slight reduction in flow as well, but it's negligible (unless you're extremely impatient). If you buy this and get NO flow, take it out, and start over reading the instructions first. Fill it with water ALL the way, just like it says. I usually tap mine on the counter a few times to get all the air out of it, and it works fine. If you leave air in it, it's not going to work.I would have rated it much better if it weren't for the hint of taste that water shouldn't have. Overall, it's a great value. For me personally, I will probably switch back to the GE filter once this one bites the dust, but we'll see.
I bought a 3 pack as a replacement for the GE filters, the filter fit just fine and the water flow is just like the GE filter, no problems at all, and saved a few dollars.
Am having the same problems that others are having:~ Exceptionally low flow~ Noisy~ Has altered/damaged seal.There are some assumptions in other reviews that those of us that are having problems with this filter are complete idiots. This filter is *not* compatible with our GE Profile fridge! I *know* when a product is not working as it should. The GE website says a glass should fill in 7 seconds - this filter takes over 40.When I spoke with Brita today they told me that this product has been discontinued and they will send me a refund check. Brita needs to perform more field testing before putting such products on the market.
The Brita filter fit fine. I agree with other users who said that the flow was reduced, but a few more seconds per glass at most. I did not experience any noise difference. If you fill up the filter COMPLETELY prior to installation, it gets the water out and eliminates the noise (I learned that on the last OEM filter that I installed).
As an informed consumer, I took my chances and ordered this Brita part, rather than a GE part. It worked for 1 week and then the flow became very slow. The next day, no flow at all. When trying to get water out of the dispenser, I heard a trickling and noticed that the water started to leak from behind my refrigerator. Great! Trust me, spend the extra money on the GE part. It will save you a lot of time and money in the end. Now, I'm dealing with a repair cost for my refrigerator and wood floor. Amazon customer service was great, but should consider removing the brita line of filters, at least for this particular GE model.
Filter is about 1/2" taller than the GE equivalent. This meant there was not enough room to keep my top shelf at the highest level. The flow rate is noticeably slower. I will not buy this filter again.
Recently I bought two of these refrigerator filters to replace the filter in my GE refrigerator for the first time. I felt comfortable going with a non-OEM part since it was "Brita" and I was happy to realize a couple of dollars cost savings over the GE OEM part. However, I've used the first Brita filter for a few months now and am not pleased with the lack of flow. It take two times longer for me to fill up a glass of water from the door of my fridge than with the GE part.
