Tools and Hardware Reviews of GE MSWF Refrigerator Water Filter, 1 PackCustomer Review: Cheaper than ordering from GE Summary: 4 Stars
Typically we have bought these replacement filters from either GE or our electric co-op and they cost quite a bit more, so I was pleased to find these on Amazon.
Customer Review: Definite flow problem Summary: 2 Stars
All three replacement filters from FiltersFast exhibit issues. Poor water flow and squeal from inside the fridge. Replaced new filter with old one and all is fine. New filters are different on the insert - old ones had one large hole with multiple tiny holes around it. New ones have one large hole and two slotted holes on each side. All three new ones are lousy. Takes 45-60 seconds to fill a standard 8oz glass. Not acceptable. Called GE directly who said no change has been made to product line. Bought two more in town, one from Sears, another from HH Gregg. Both have the same design as the new ones from FiltersFast and are also lousy.
I have resorted to using the filter plug in order to have decent water flow. The filter design has obviously changed and either GE is not admitting to it or their representatives are ignorant to the change.
I hate my fridge now and currently using a Brita pitcher filter on the counter top. Neither Filtersfast, Sears or HH Gregg will accept a return. I'm now a proud owner of six new filters, over $200 in cost, that won't work worth a flip. Oh, and those of you who want to repeat what GE told me over the phone - yes, both the old filter with the tiny holes and the bypass plug work fine. There is NO clog in the water line. It's the lousy new filters that GE is pushing to all the vendors.
Customer Review: Filtered Water tastes HORRIBLE Summary: 1 Stars
We have now installed this filter and used it for approximately a week... the water tastes completely off, and we truly feel like this was a waste of money - as we bought the new filter so that we would not have to spend as much money on bottled water, only to find out that the water tastes so disgusting we can't even drink it. :(
Customer Review: Fridge Filter Summary: 5 Stars
I didn't realize that the refrigerator we purchased in 2007 would need a filter replacement for the ice-maker. Makes sense though, since it is filtered water. It was a great relief when I was able to purchase the filter through Amazon. I also was able to finally locate the same item at the Hardware store, however, it was so easy and quick through the internet, that I took advantage of this method of shopping and will do so again in the future.
Customer Review: GE MSWF Refrigerator Water Filter Summary: 5 Stars
I live in the Tucson, AZ area and our water is very hard. I test my water regularly out of the tap and it shows 240. I test the water out of my R/O system and it tests at 22. The water coming out of my ref with the GE filter which comes from the R/0 system is 20. I have the cleanest water in our neighborhood. The only issue I had was the GE filter took a couple of months to get back to "normal" testing range. When I fist installed it, the water tested at 40. Now that it's back to "normal" I'm pleased. Also the install was easy - reading the simple directions took longer that the install. You just twist off the old one and twist on the new one and then run about 5 gallons through the system.
