Refrigerator Filters - whirlpool, fridge filter


Sorry folks, but I don't know if I got a lemon or what, but after following instructions on how to install the filter,etc, the end result was water tasting like plastic. The only way i can assume this happened is that the filter sat in the warehouse in the dog days of summer long before it came into the consumers hands. Too bad because it installed and was fine otherwise, but the taste cannot be ignored. Amazon had the best price for this but if I were you, I would probably buy locally if you can. Otherwise, it's a crapshoot in terms of knowing if you will get one that is free from plastic taste or not. Whirlpool 8171413 KitchenAid Side-by-Side Refrigerator Water Filter, 1-Pack

Last time I purchased one of these filters was at Best Buy. It cost $35. I was very pleased to find such a great deal here. I haven't seen them cheaper anywhere else. Can't beat the ease or economy of it!

The water filter was a manufacturer filter, but at a better price than Whirlpool had on their own website. The order arrived on time and in great condition. I will definitely purchase from this retailer again.

At first I was a little scared, since it only worked intermittently after installation. I think that it just had to work out some air bubbles. After that, I have had clean delicious water with no debris at all. Definitely works better than I expected!

I can only compare the price of this filter with local purchasing and not the quality of the filter. The price is about 1/3 of what it cost to but the same exact at the store locally. I ave purchased 2 times and am satisfied.

Quick shipping. Good water filter although the recommended replacement of six months is a poor design (My filters that I used inline prior to the inside mount would last 2 years). Much better price than home depot. ($10-$15 more.) - Whirlpool Water Filter - Whirlpool - Fridge Filter - Refrigerator Filters'
