Water Sentinel WSA-1 Replacement Fridge Filter, 3 Pack, Fits Amana Clean 'N Clear Wf40, Wf401

• Fridge filter to replace Amana Clean 'N Clear

I knew this was a generic, so that didn't bother me. The filters were shipped out quickly and received promptly. The description says these are a match for the Amana 46-9904 filter, which is the one we use in our fridge. However, when we got them, they didn't fit properly and water was spraying everywhere. On the plus side the company gave us no hassle about returning them (except we had to pay shipping back). The company was very responsive and good to work with. So the one star is for the product, not the company.

I purchased these as a replacement for an Amana WF40 filter. This filter WILL fit but it is not easy to install. First of all when you remove the old filter take a look at the top and notice that there are 2 lips that work to hold/tighten the filter into place. Orient the new filters lips in the same way as the old filter when removed. The new filter will require MUCH MORE upward force to catch both lips while installing. Use both hands if you can and force the filter up and turn clockwise simultaneously. If both lips catch, the filter will screw on evenly. If the new filter is going on crooked, STOP, turn it back and try again. It took me 4-5 tries before I could get both lips to catch and get the filter on. I'm a guy with big strong hands and I can see how many folks would not have the patience or the hand strength to install this filter. If you can, it's a great bargain and I will be buying these in the future. I would also note that there is about a 25% reduction in water flow speed with these filters. Not a major issue for me. I flushed the system with 2 gallons before drinking and the taste is now resorted.

These filters are a recent answer to the expense of replacement filters, and they are NOT the answer. My Kenmore takes filter #46-9014, a number clearly marked on the package of the Water Sentinel. And it does not fit. I trued screwing it in for 15 minutes, finally got what I thought was the "sweet spot", and then screwed it in. Upon trying to get water out of the fridge, water sprayed everywhere and did not come out of the spigot. Bad product.

Everyone please note that these are Water Sentinel filters and NOT AMANA as the title suggests. This is very misleading as this is not the Amana brand name replacement as the title implies , but a generic replacement. I did not notice this until I received the product. The picture shows it, but I do not think they should be able to say it in their title and I am going to let Amazon know about this.
