What customers are saying

The water filter is reported to effectively filter the water and provide clean, great-tasting results when it fits properly. However, many customers experienced issues with the filter not fitting the new refrigerator model, freezing and cracking, and needing frequent replacement at a high cost. The overall consensus is that the filter works well when it functions as intended, but the frequent replacement requirement and high price make it less desirable for many users.

    New version does not fit!

    Reviewed by - June 17, 2021

    Trying to replace the filter in the very expensive, upscale refrigerator has become nothing but frustration! GE says the filter I need (XWF) has been replaced by a new version (XWFE) which is supposed to fit. It doesn't! So now I'm stuck with a few months old Profile 4 door without being able to use the water or ice function! Very unhappy.

    Easy instillation

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - May 11, 2020

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got this filter when my refrigerator said it needed to be changed. I didn’t realize how easy it was to change. Just open the door and pop in, it’s that simple! Don’t forget to run a gallon of water and dump it out. You will also need to reset the filter button (which took us a few tries).

    Poor Performance

    Reviewed by - March 7, 2020

    The refrigerator section keeps freezing the filter and destroys/cracks the filter, thus the ice maker and water dispenser do not work. Our eggs in the box have frozen in the refigerator section. I need to keep replacing the filter. Poor engineering design for this product!

    Works good but doesn’t last long.

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - January 24, 2020

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Works as stated and expected but it seems to last only half as long as other refrigerators filters do that cost the same amount of time. We had a Samsung refrigerator in the past that had a filter that lasted six months. This one lasts only about three and they cost the same.

    Quick delivery, easy install.

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - May 31, 2020

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Order this with our brand new fridge and it arrived just in time. Had some trouble with the water dispenser early on and we were able to use the replacement to test things out. Seems to do a great job filtering and the water is crystal clear. Super easy to install as well.

    Good Water Filter

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - June 9, 2019

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This filter is far superior than my previous non GE fridge filter. The ice cubes do not turn yellow or stale over time. Expect the need to change the filter approx every 6 months. Changing the filter is simple. takes less than a minute...

    Expensive

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - August 1, 2020

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this original replacement for a reason however water is coming out with a strong smell and taste of chlorine. I am disappointed and surprised. I can’t recommend, specially with this price tag
