GE RPWFE Refrigerator Water Filter Reviews Summary

Filter Compatibility and Installation

Pros:

• "Fits and functions as it should."
• "The first RPWFE filter installed easily."
• "This filter has a RFID chip that’s compatible with the GE refrigerator."
• "I didn't realize how slow my water dispenser had become. Once I put in the new filter the water flow increased tremendously."
• "The good thing about this filter is that, replacing it very very easy."
• "It's easy to install. It seems to work well enough."
• "It works perfectly. Very easy to install."
• "Very simple to use and replace."

Cons:

• "We stocked up on these for when we would need them, and it’s made for our specific fridge but doesn’t fit properly."
• "I have bought filters from other sites claiming their’s are genuine GE products...they were missing the chip needed for our water dispenser to work."
• "The first purchase had to be returned because the product did not work."
• "It didn't work, and I couldn't install it."
• "When I attempted to put the filter in, the tip cracked off very easily."
• "I signed up for the subscribe and save and I did it ahead of time so I have it on hand. So therefore I am passed my return window and I went to put in the new filter and it looks like it has been opened and the tip of the filter has mold and water in it and it looks like it’s used."
• "I bought this filter because it's the one made by GE, and when we bought the off brand the 'replace filter' light would not go out."
• "I bought 3 and didn’t take the seal off until I opened them. I put it in my refrigerator filter and it didn’t work because even though it said GE RPWFE it was different on the end and didn’t work."

Filter Performance and Quality

Pros:

• "This filter does an excellent job of removing the unpleasant taste."
• "This filter is capable of removing harmful elements such as heavy metals."
• "The water tastes terrible (like pool water)."
• "It makes me feel good to know that my family has clean, drinking water."
• "Water quality did improve after replacement."
• "Great to filter chemical impurities from the water supply."
• "The processed water tastes good and the filter was relatively easy to install."
• "We have a GE fridge and have always used these water filters that are compatible with it. We use the water out of this fridge filter everyday for all our drinking water needs."

Cons:

• "This filter has a RFID chip that’s compatible with the GE refrigerator...but after 6 months, regardless of usage, the replace filter warning will come on."
• "This filter caused a malfunction with my filter system."
• "I forgot to save some of my old ice to use while you throw out 3-4 cycles of the ice from the new filter. I ended up with what I think is charcoal dust in the bottom of my water cup."
• "This water filter was bought on December 1 and on December 22, the countdown for replacing it began."
• "I installed it properly and the water tastes terrible (like pool water)."
• "I didn't need to replace my refrigerator water filter at the time of purchase. Since it has been over 30 days since I bought this defective item, and installed it, I can no longer get a replacement or a refund."
• "This is the second time in three years I've been sent a replacement filter with a defective RFID chip."
• "Clogged up before reaching 2 months."
