Everydrop by Whirlpool Ice and Water Refrigerator Filter 4, EDR4RXD1, Single-Pack

The OEM filters are pricey, but to me they’re worth every penny. I have looked all around for any other alternative that is rated as highly as these for contaminant reduction and there are none. I cannot find a single filter that replaces UKF8001 that is both NSF/ANSI 42 and NSF/ANSI 53, let alone NSF/ANSI 401 as well! All the cheaper, non-OEM filters that I have seen are NSF 42 only, if certified at all. I don’t see the point in wasting money on a cheap filter that may not actually be filtering anything instead of paying up for a filter that filters contaminants like Naproxen and DEET out of the water. Do yourself a favor: if you’re actually trying to filter your water, get this filter. I’ve had 4 now, all worked perfectly.Read more

What happened Whirlpool? These filters used to last me 8 months to a year. This last filter lasted less than three months. And I’m a household of one. Disappointing and deplorable performance. Maybe I got a bad one?Read more

The filter was working fine for about a month. I was able to draw more than a cup of water with solid pressure from the water dispenser. After about a month the filter is now causing the water dispenser to make a loud noise when drawing water and the pressure is really low and slow. I’ve been able to narrow the problem down to the filter. Reinstalling the old filter or using the By Pass Cap gets rid of the loud noise so the problem is with the new filter. I’ve bought these before when Amazon was selling the two pack and they worked great, I used them for about a year with no issues (reduced water pressure as the filter approached a year). I’m not sure what has changed but upon a little research it seems others are having problems with the newer model filters. They aren’t made as well and now cost more than the previous ones, perhaps due to poor quality control since this item is 5 star rated and only a few people are having this problem. I wish there were more consumer options when it came to refrigerator filters. There are only a handful of manufacturers and the off brand filters don’t have as many reviews but I will be giving those a try next since I’ve had a bad experience with this name brand filter and Amazon’s support. I’m no longer able to return the product, however I’ve used the Amazon “Get product support” option and received no reply.Read more

The latest version of this reduces the capacity from 300 gal to 200 gal – see attached photos. Strangely, the price has not dropped by 1/3.Read more

AMANA viene siendo de la linea de MAYTAG y que el haberlo encontrado con ustedes fue de gran beneficio para el uso de hielos en el refrigerador, sobre todo porque es dificil encontrarlo en el pais y dadas las circunstancias que vivimos fue excelente recibirlo directamente en casa. GraciasRead more

I went through 2 of these filters now. the result SLOW FLOW!!! i believe i found the cause to the problem. If you would happen to look at your bypass cap that comes with the fridge and the filter and see the 2 parts that are raised inside the cap. The cap is raised higher than on the filter which would allow it to push the flow valve in further causing more water to flow. I believe on the filters it’s not pushing the valves in far enough to allow a good water flow. the plastic mold isn’t correct when they created the filters. The filtering isn’t the issue it’s the actual plastic mold itself I believe is the issue. Quite a shame for something that’s so pricey.Read more

The flow rate on this filter (0.8gpm) is so much better than the generic replacement I had bought while trying to save money (0.5gpm,) that it’s easily worth the premium price (and this Amazon price is better than I found anywhere else.) I had a store brand filter from T H*ME D**OT in my Maytag french door refrigerator. You can see in my attached photo the difference in design: This filter, on the right, is larger, and has more holes for the water to flow. The family complained that it took too long to fill glasses; the Keurig reservoir took FOREVER! I timed the old one, it took almost exactly 60 seconds to fill a 1 quart jug. This new Everydrop filter filled the same jug in 32 seconds.Read more

Tip from refrigerator repairman who replaced a part on my Kitchen-aid KFXS25RYMS0: Buy a tube of food grade white grease — bought mine on http://www.smile.amazon.com — and whenever you replace your refrigerator filter, apply a tiny amount to gaskets and any places that touch. This will prevent the part that seats the filter from wearing and losing its seal and leaking. The smallest tube of this stuff will last two lifetimes. As for the filter itself, it seems quite good but I believe the manufacturer is way too proud of its product. Almost $100 for water filters? Hm-m . . .Read more

This filter does cost more, but it fits and works. I bought a 4 pack on eBay for $65. Great deal? Nope. The filters look identical and are packaged identically to the real product, except for a sticker placed over the made in America printing. I tried all four and all four wouldn’t seal because they wouldn’t twist on far enough! They also had unwashed carbon and turned the water black. I tried to flush the one that slightly leaked, but even after about 3 gallons the water was still black. I put the old filter back in and everything was fine. I ordered this ‘real’ OEM one from amazon, installed it with no leaking and it’s just as it should be. I did get a refund from the eBay merchant, but they didn’t want their filters back. Dont waste your time with the $16 knockoffs!Read more
