Exactly as Ordered June 27, 2007 Becky (Midwest) 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
This product is an exact match for my Frigidaire. It slid right in and after a few glasses running through the system (to get rid of the air bubbles) things are running perfect again.
Ease of ordering products May 15, 2007 Buyer 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This is the filter for a specific model of the Frigdaire. I liked the ease of finding the data on which one, how to order, the prices, etc.
It was an excellent price for the 3 pack, saving us over $50 based on the replacement cost of our local dealer.
Great Filter! May 15, 2010 Günther (CA, USA) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This filter is for my Frigidaire Side-by-side, 26.0 cu ft, Stainless Steel refrigerator. Model # FRS6LF7JS0, S/N: 4A81707239. Manufactured April 2008.
I first operated the water dispenser on 08JULY08. After the RED light came on to change the filter, I kept putting it off...over and over until I became accustomed to seeing the pretty RED light. It complemented the GREEN ice dispenser light very well, especially during the winter holidays.
I finally purchased the replacement filter and replaced it on 14MAY10...yes, that's right, 22 months of filtering and at least 13 months overdue for a change. The filter, being see-through, allowed me to see the bits (albeit small) of debris that floated about when I shook the old filter. It was something of a gagging effect I experienced in my thoughts. I should have changed the filter a lot sooner was the thought thereafter.
The point I wanted to single out is that even though the filter would definitely not pass a health inspection, the water that came out through it was relatively clear...I mean it! I would have never known that the filter was mucked-up had it not been for the RED "change me now!" light. Therefore, this filter is a very good filter.
However, the manufacturer states that this filter is to be replaced after 6-9 months of use or after a flow of 400 US Gallons, whichever comes first. I am assuming that the RED "change me now!" light is initiated by the filter backing up (Differential Pressure a.k.a. Delta-P), if not by this means, then perhaps by a flow meter? Whichever it may be, change your filter when the manufacturer says so. The price is high per unit, but if you were to change the filter out every 6 months, the price per day is approximately $0.19 (approximately $0.13 if every 9 months).
After you install the new filter, the manufacturer says to run water through the filter for 3 minutes. This will cycle out the air in the new filter and kind of give it a rinse at the same time. The water, at first, will come out somewhat like heavily diluted milk, due to the teeny-tiny air bubbles making their way out.
Don't forget to reset your RED filter light (if you have one)!
Good price, good product. December 10, 2009 Xian 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
These filters are a little smaller than the previous ones I ordered (probably a different manufacturer or maybe using less plastic to be environmentally friendly) but nonetheless fit and work well. Remember to run the water through the system for several minutes after installation to ensure proper filtration (and to get loose fibers from the filter out)!
My Water is delicious again! October 23, 2007 D. Bennion (N. Virginia) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
our fridge broke while were were out of town and the water was gross, then we replaced the filter (while doing the whole baking soda routine), and everything is better - the new filter made the water better than EVER!
