I tried to complicate the installation but it's not

It's SO easy! Twist the old one and remove it as all the wet parts are inside the cylinder. So hold up the open end (the opposite of what you're holding) and then allow it to drain into the sink while you insert the new one and turn it a quarter and you're done. Then take a half-gallon or one-gallon pitcher and pour out a gallon of water. Then everything is fine.

Pros
  • Best in my niche
Cons
  • No

Insufficient for fridge spares and accessories

Replacement filter was purchased on 05/10/2018. Installation instructions followed and installed around 05/15/2018. On 08/15/2018 the new order indicator lights filter. I went through the original Frigidaire filter and changed this filter in 8 months. Our water district's website states that our city water is medium hard. I had the worst. Either the bad quality of Frigidaire filters or a scam to get more money. Either way it's annoying.

Pros
  • Ideal for a small home
Cons
  • No power

Fake Information. Filter DOES NOT FIT

Although the website says this filter fits my Frigidaire side-by-side fridge, it did not fit. I checked and checked the model numbers. Since I only discovered the problem when my fridge said I needed to REPLACE the filter, by then it had been 6 weeks since I ordered the filter. When I went to return it I was past the 30 day window and was not eligible for a return. Where is the responsibility for false advertising?!?

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Only available in black

Is working. At a high price

The product works perfectly. I have to order it about every six months for our French door Frigidaire fridge. The only criticism is the high price of this product. Revain used to offer an unbranded alternative but it disappeared after I first ordered it. I wish I could stock up on occasion. There is absolutely nothing wrong with this product other than that we spend about $100 a year on water filters for our fridge.

Pros
  • Lots of positive emotions
Cons
  • Expensive

Poor quality and no customer service

One in three of these water filters is defective and only lasts a few weeks instead of 6 months. Since this model is difficult to find, I was forced to re-order those that Frigidaire had been producing for 3 years. The bad guys died exactly 1 day after their 90 day "guarantee" (half the advertised lifespan). Their support team is generally unavailable and Revain will only refer you to them. When I spent a whole day chasing them after three bad filters, they offered me a 30% discount on my next…

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Poor

Not Made in the USA.

The filter is still NSF certified but no longer made in the USA. Previously, these filters were listed as "Made in the USA from globally sourced materials." The image promoting this product still clearly shows the filter with the same wording but when it arrived and I inspected it prior to installation it now says 'Made in Singapore'. I was upset and went to my local big store. The same thing. Obviously this is a change from Frigidaire and not Revain, but it would be nice to have a US option…

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • Exchange Availability

Received a defective item and got a response from seller

I received a filter which was easy to install and fit like a charm. However, after replacing the filter, the icemaker stopped making ice. We tried everything we could think of as we use ice regularly but no luck. We have searched online for similar issues and believe this is due to a faulty filter as others have had the same issue in a similar situation. We have received an email from the seller with feedback on this transaction as well as satisfaction with the item and requesting feedback if…

Pros
  • Good item for the price
Cons
  • Functionality
