Water filtered exactly as the OEM filters. So I'm not sure what the gripe is about this filter. Everything appears to work great with it, and now after 2 months It still is working just fine.

We use for drinking and cooking2020-07-15 03:30:12
My wife runs about 4 gallon of water through the new filter to clean the charcoal. The water out of this filter tastes good and crisp. This is the water that we use for drinking and cooking.

It works2020-07-07 04:57:58
For whatever reason the city water does not taste good. I bought this clone version filter and run a few gallons through it before we drink water from it. There is a blatantly obvious difference and the water is actually pleasant to drink now.

Work Great with our 13 Year Old Stainless Steel Whirlpool Side x Side Fridge!2020-06-29 12:45:02
We ordered two of these from Clatterans and were a little nervous as we've never been purchased here before. Luckily, this filter works perfectly. We have purchased other brands but this one will be our future choice, as is priced better and works just as good!

This filter is for your DRINKING water.2020-06-03 07:34:45
Flushed with 4 gallons as instructed. I detected no strange taste. I note that this Clatterans filter has passed NSF-testing-standards. It is important, as this filter is for water YOU DRINK. Will now consider purchasing annually with Subscribe-and-Save in bulk...

Good filter - tastes fine2020-05-20 08:33:45
I've purchased a few of these and they have always been great. The water tastes fresh and clean every time and seems to do well with filtering the typical bad-tasting city water.
The packaging mentions you are supposed to run about 4 gallons through it before drinking anything from it. I'm guessing some of the people complaining about the plastic taste is not flushing it properly. It takes a rather long time to flush 4 gallons through the filter by hand. It takes about 10 and a half minutes for four gallons to run through it. I recommend calculating the flow rate of your fridge before attempting this method as I'm sure it is different per fridge.

Clatterans filter good replacement for expensive original filters2020-05-06 09:48:11
Update: Just installed my second one of these filters. No noticeable odor or taste issues. I will continue ordering every 6 months until I have an issue.
Original review: I finally gave up trying to find the old expensive filters and
ordered one of these Clatterans filters. I had concerns about the taste. But after a few day’s use, I’m happy to report that I have had no issues and the filter works just like the original one. Before use, I filled the bottle 2 more times to flush any remaining stuff out. My first glass of water was clear and tasted good. I highly recommend you do the same thing like me before you drink water from the newly unboxed filter.
