Amazon had the best price for the filter I needed. (Why are refrigerator filters so pricey anyway?). It works great, I noticed an increase in the flow rate with the new filter.

Amana WF401S Clean N Clear Refrigerator Water Filter, 1-Pack
This is a great price for these refrigerator water filters. I checked all over town and couldn’t find this particular filter at any store other than Sear’s. It was less expensive here, and it was a real Amana filter for our Amana refrigerator, not a Kenmore or other brand. You can really save by buying three at a time.

This is a great filter.
It is very easy to install, it took less than a minute, which was great.
I followed the directions and threw out the first couple of batches of ice and water. So far I’ve had it in for about 3 weeks and the water and ice taste great.

Product: Armana WF401 Replacement Refrigerator Water Filter
I find this filter to be entirely underwhelming in terms of it’s filtration performance, and a poor value for it’s price. The ONLY reason I buy these filters is because the house I bought has a fairly new refrigerator that requires them, at a rate of 2 per year.
Performance wise, these filters are just barely able to handle chlorine and particulates, and (for a little while) lead and mercury, and that’s about it … in other words, they’ll turn cloudy water clear. The specs claim it’s also sufficient for “taste”, but my direct experience says otherwise. The performance is so mediocre, I installed a seperate (and far superior) filtration system for my kitchen sink, and I only use the fridge filter for ice … and reluctantly at that, since the ice has an off-taste.
Bottom line: if you own a refrigerator that requires these filters, you’re pretty much stuck with them … unless of course you’re willing and able to install a higher quality filtration system (e.g., reverse osmosis) upstream of the water input. It’s extremely irritating to have to spend $60+/yr on filters that perform so poorly.
