Review on White Filter Wrench WX5X3002 by General Electric - Improved SEO by Calvin Booker

Revainrating 2 out of 5

The key does not provide sufficient leverage.

Although the wrench fits the filter housing very well, it has a short lever which does not provide enough leverage to loosen the filter housing. It seems that the previous owners of the house did not regularly replace the element, so the case is very tight. I did my best, depressurizing the filter assembly and such, but even with two people, one holding the pipe and the other turning the wrench, the body wouldn't budge. I thought about banging the wrench hard, but I was afraid of damaging the pipe. Being plastic, the length of the arm is likely limited due to the loss of rigidity.

Pros
  • Amazing
Cons
  • Low repairability
