FMM-2 Premium Refrigerator Water Filter Replacement Fits Whirlpool Filter 4

So I got this to replace the factory issued filter & its good but it’s not exactly the same. It installs the same but it’s slightly shorter so it doesn’t hook into the end of the housing that the original one did. Other than that, it works well and fits in all other aspects, just expect to run the water for a several minutes to clear out the charcoal.

I have been using The HDX Refrigerator water filter for several years now, because it is readily available at my local Home Depot, It is a perfect fit for my Whirlpool Refrigerator, the price is less than the Manufacturers OEM recommended filter, and the performance is simply excellent. I easily get the average 6 months service life with these filters. My particular Whirlpool Refrigerator has an electronic monitor that gives me several weeks of notice that I need to pick up a new filter if I don’t already have one on hand, which I like to do. I have well water, but even a municipal water supply can have fluctuations in the quality of the water it produces. This is more important an issue than ever now, when so many communities are being hard hit with drought issues. Since we use this water for drinking, food preparation and so many other uses, I feel it is an imperative that we take precautions and always have high quality filtration. Regardless of the automatic Notification that the time has come, I have noticed that this filter has such an excellent filtration media that I can detect the time is near because the water flow to the ice maker will begin to wane, and I notice sluggish performance and even a slightly smaller cube size as a result. What I find amazing is that when you remove an HDX Water Filter that has reached the end of its duty cycle, it is going to weigh two to three times the weight of the new fresh one you are putting in, as it is full of trapped chemical sludge. So I know it is a real performer, and that all of those impurities are going in the trash, not into our bodies. So this is a peace of mind product that I depend on to keep us healthy. The manufactures tolerances for this filter are very tight, and it even comes with a plastic seal, so you know it is fresh and ready to work for you. My Whirlpool has an inside the unit pull-down filter holder, that is also very tight tolerance to assure zero water leakage into the food compartment. I have never had this problem, and not a drop comes out even when you are inserting the filter into the water line. The HDX Filter fits in there like a glove, with exactly the same close fit from one to the next. I highly recommend it as the very best you can provide to keep your family safe.

A cost effective substitute for the OEM filters for your whirlpool refrigerator. Instillation of this filter is the same/easy jas the OEM whirlpool filter. Water flow was good. Photos have detailed filter specs. The package includes install instructions and a handy filter replacement reminder calendar you can stick on the filter or inside your refrigerator.

My fridge came with FMM-2-S filter installed, so the first question was whether FMM-2 fits the socket. Yes it does. The second question is about the difference between the two considering that FMM-2 costs 1.5x the price of FMM-2-S and whether paying more makes any sense at all when there is a cheaper alternative. The short answer is that FMM-2 filters out much more contaminants than FMM-2-S, I am not repeating the specs here, they are available on the product page. But in general, when it comes to selecting a water filter, many factors have to be considered. For example, if a fridge water comes from a public source without any local filtration, then paying for FMM-2 makes sense because the list of chemicals it is able to filter out is impressive. On the other hand, for houses where a fridge water comes from an RO (Reverse Osmosis) filtering system, FMM-2-S would work just fine, because much of the bad stuff won't pass the RO system. I am just sharing what I think and I know that some people don't even care to replace their water filters, if that is the case the cheaper one the better. It is all personal.

The " HDX FMM-2 Premium Refrigerator Water Filter Replacement " typically works well, but the one i received had a crack in the head and it would not stop leaking!

Easy to use, you don't have to shut the water off, just twist, release and pull out and replace the same way.
