Tools and Hardware Reviews of PUR PBSS Push-Button Refrigerator Water FilterCustomer Review: 1/2 of Sears Price Summary: 5 Stars
Excellent product from PUR exact replacement and you get two for half of what Sears charges for one. A NO BRAINER!
Customer Review: 5 Stars is for Price & Convenience + it fits a Kenmore Summary: 5 Stars
OK, so the product is what it is. It's a great filter with a noticeable improvement in the taste of water. This is the exact same Pur filter that is sold for the Sears Kenmore fridge and that's what counts. If your filter is blue, then this will fit - I took that chance when I ordered so I'm sharing the knowledge so y'all don't have to sweat it. They're half the department store price on Amazon AND they even give you a discount if you set it up to automatically send a new one every six months. WOOT! I don't even have to think about when it's time to change the filter 'cause Amazon will just send me a new one.
Customer Review: ATTENTION: PLEASE READ REGARDING SEARS, WHIRLPOOL, & PUR Summary: 5 Stars
It seems there are a LOT of misuderstandings in these reviews. If you own a Sears refridgerator it IS a Whirlpool, or Kitchen Aid, or whatever else with a "Kenmore" name plate on it. Sears doesn't make their appliances and they purchase appliance from varios companys and put their "Kenmore" brand on it. I have a Whirlpool fridge, Whirlpool dishwaher, and GE microwave. They all say Kenmore and the stainless stell matches perfectly. A Sears sales rep will tell you who makes the specific unit. This is true for Kenmore washers & dryers as well, all appliance. Secondly, Whirlpool, Kitchen Aid, Kenmore, etc. do not make the filters. Sears, Whirlpool, etc. sell the filter with their markings on it. PUR make the filter. This is not a cheaper replacement for the filter, it is the same filter. I have been using PUR filters bought on-line for 5 years now and it is the same filter that came in the refridgerator when I bought it. The only thing to keep in mind is that the "universal PUR Filter", that fits all push button, in the grill units, does not have the same filtration as the the specific PUR filter that comes with the fridge. For example the "Universal" filter is about $26 on Amazon and my fridge came with a PUR 4396710 which cost about $32 on Amazon. Both will work, but the $32 unit filters out about 11 types of impurities, the $26 unit is 4 types. I buy the 4396710 to protect my 2 year old and wife. What is $7 more when it's your family's health. They are about $50 each at Sears.
I hope this information helps clear up some misconceptions and helps people make an educated decision on what to buy.
Customer Review: As Advertised Summary: 4 Stars
Arrived in a timely manner.
Fits as it should be.
We will work on an external solution to filter our water before it goes into the fridge.
These filters last longer, are cheaper to get and can filter different things out of the water.
If money doesn't matter go for this product, nothing to complain about.
Customer Review: Best Bang for the Buck Summary: 5 Stars
so its been about 60 days since we have had the filter in, before that we had the same filter in for 2 years! we never used the water out of the fridge and the ice was always kinda off. since the new filter is installed we have been drinking the water from the fridge instead of filling up the 5 gal bottles. The ice doesn't have an off flavor anymore. The price Whirlpool was wanting to charge would have been close to $50 with shipping, but with Amazon Prime and the low price I saved nearly $20 buying the PUR brand.
