K&J Replacement Samsung Compatible Refrigerator Water Filter for DA2900020B, RF263BEAESR, and RF28HMEDBSR - Samsung HAF-CIN/EXP and 46-9101 Refrigerator Water Filter, NSF 42 Certified (1-Pack)

We use this in our samsung fridge and it works great without having to pay a fortune. It filters water with great taste. Will keep ordering every 3 months for replacement.

I purchased this filter online in order to compare it to the Samsung brand filter that is recommended for my French Door Samsung Refrigerator. I did a lot of research prior to purchasing it and did compare it to the other more expensive filters that are on the web. I went to the K&J website and further read up on how they make this filter in order to be sure that I would get great tasting water despite having spent half the cost of most other comparable filters. I went with the K&J filter not only because it was considerably less expensive than the others, but because of the double O Ring that is placed on the filter connection. After reading other reviews I was concerned with buying an off brand due to leakage. Still, this filter seemed to have overwhelmingly positive reviews and so I took a chance. With Amazon's return policy, I figured I could return it if unsatisfied. I've been using the filter for a week now. It was easy to install and I did purge it of two gallons of water after installation as I think that is key to having a no drip experience. This filter does a good job of filtering the water and I am satisfied with the taste. I had and still have no drip issues at all. Do not be afraid to purchase this item due to it's cheaper price point. I would recommend buying it. I think you will be satisfied with not only it's performance in your refrigerator but the excellent water quality as well.

This filter fit well and seems to be working. I would recommend turning off the water to the fridge before installing. This was my first time replacing the filter and the old one came out fine with the water still on, but when I went to push the new one in it didn't seat tight. It locked on but was not sealed and water went everywhere. I turned the water off and it alleviated pressure and pushed on easier and tighter. No leaks when I turned water back on

I took awhile to review this because I wanted to get a good sample size of usage. For years, I've been purchasing the brand name Samsung filter, which has recently exploded in price! I have a Samsung stainless steel refrigerator that is approximately 3 years old, and is our only source of drinking water. The generic filters out there have too many horror stories for me to take the risk of using a non-Samsung brand. However, when I read the initial reviews for this filter by K&J, I was encouraged to take a leap, especially as the price was amazing compared to Samsung. Side-by-side, this filter and the Samsung versions are almost identical, especially the vital connector. I installed this filter in a few seconds, as it snapped right in without any leaking. I think that it actually went in easier than the brand name ones. I ran a gallon of water through my fridge water dispenser to prime this filter. I'm very impressed with the water pressure, taste, and filtration! My wife believes that she has a refined water palate, and will not hesitate to say something as soon as the filter begins to fade or something isn't quite right with our water. She approves!! I'm so relieved that I've found this filter, and can stop paying full price.After a month, water is still great, and no leaks or issue of any kind.2 month update: Filter still working as described.

I was taken aback when I first received the filter, as it was approximately 3/4 inch shorter than the original filter. I thought they sent the wrong filter, but i double checked, and it was the filter I ordered. It installed extremely easily in our Samsung fridge (no tools, no fuss - old one pulled out, and the new one slid right in.) Water tastes great, no leaks, no issues.

After reading several reviews I decided to use this filter, which is not the cheapest but is less than half what the OEM replacement would have cost. A physical comparison (visual only - I didn't use a micrometer) showed it was identical in form. Replacement was quite simple. I did not turn off the water supply, and although that may have not been best practice, it didn't cause any issues. The only issue was when I set out to run water through the filter the air from the dry filter caused a surge of spray from the water outlet which I had to dry up from the floor, the front of the fridge, and myself. Not a big deal, but I thought you should be cautioned. I did run a bit more than a gallon of water through the system before the tiny bubbles cleared up; not that they would be a problem if I chose to drink them. I can't comment on longevity, as it is quite new. I would have given five stars, but its a water-filter review, not an endorsement.

Excellent OEM substitute ... so far so good .I've had the product a week , and the water quality is very good .I've used Samsung brand filters in my fridge for the first 2 years , then this last year I've discovered Non-Oem brand replacents on Amazon .THis one has proved (so far ) to be the better one .- No loud noise !- No loss of pressure, or excessive back pressure on the electric valve (its something you can actually hear on a bad filter )After receiving the product (very quick ) I installed it and did the customary charcoal flush , but interestingly enough , did not see the greyish color seen with other filters ! As a peace of mind I flushed 2 gallons and started using the water . I looks clear , odorless and no bad or wierd taste .With other non-Brand filters ( i tired 3 different brands ) one had a lot of grey discharge at first , another brand was extremely constricted and has a very slow and thin stream , and the third really didn't impress me, but I ran across this brand , and likes the reviews and overal valur that I decided to try it out .I am glad I did ! So far I am very pleased . I will update in 30 days or so if in Notice a change in quality or pressure .
