This filter seems to work well & has improved the water quality of some very iron tasting water. We have it installed on the water line that supplies the drinking water faucet & refrigerator ice maker. We put it in the basement so it''s easy to access/change the filter.

Update 12/09: We also use this filter in our primary home for the water line supplying the refrigerator. This house has a very different water issue: hard water. We previously used a Brita filter/pitcher for making coffee/tea because it stopped hard water deposits from forming in our pot. But that system was so slow & took space in the refrigerator so we switched to this filter. Unfortunately, it does not remove the hard water/lime. So the pot has to be "delimed" regularly. Also doesn''t stop the buildup of lime in the refrigerator ice maker/water dispenser.

Was not happy w/the way this was packaged for shipping. There was no filler around the filter boxes (c''mon, who doesn''t have a little newspaper or something around to use in packing???). So the filters rattled around the box & 2 (of 3) were out of the product packaging. Luckily, it doesn''t appear that they were damaged but will consider another company to order these from next time.

The water tastes great and according to the fact sheets filters out some particles and spores. However, there is a design flaw with this model, after a couple of filter replacements, the nubs at the top of the filter do not reach high enough to trigger the release in the manifold to release enough water and it dribbles out.

This problem happened to me too, but can be fixed with a garden hose plastic washer inserted at the top of the filter. Use a thin washer or a used washer for best results. See the discussion here:

We''ve been using this filter for years now for our refrig. ice and water dispenser. No, it will not perform as a multi-stage water filtration system or the $70 one that goes in the bottom of your refer., but it is perfectly adequate for use with quality city water. Ice tastes much better than before. Water in the dispenser tends to last longer in the cooling loop inside the refer. With straight city water, it will quickly foul if water is not used regularly.

Cartridge is a bit pricey, but again it works fine.

This filter in a single stage exterior head (GXRLQ) works fine for under counter small home kitchen service.

It lasts 4 months supplying drinking and cooking water. For higher volume applications use twin head system and FQSLF filters. I estimate that arrangement would go six months undercounter vs. four with the single GXRLQR.

The end "R" denotes replacement filter.

Searching for one to replace the water filter in my GE Refrigerator (model profile), took out the original filter, get the part number and ended up with waterfilter.net for cheapest price. Found none of them work, either got no water from water dispenser or just like leaking and dripping. Beware of waterfilter.net return policy, if you peal off the seal on the filter, they won''t allow to return and also 15% restocking fee if over 10 days.

Ended up to buy from local Sears store to replace. Total waste of money on the garbage products.
