Frigidaire WF1CB Replacement Filter, 1 Pack
WF1CB is supposed to replace RG-100, which fits all PureSource equipped refrigerators produced after April 2001. It has a rated capacity of 6-9 months, or 400 gallons, whichever comes first.
Fits most fridge models, such as:
FRS23R3A
FRS23R4A
FRS23KR4A
FRS26R2A
FRS26R3A
FRS26R4A
FRS26KR4A
FRS26HR4A
FRS26RBB
MRSR25V4A
MRSR25X8A
MRSR25V5A
MRSZ28X8A when you order these filters picture shows frigidaire filter with box. when you receive them your in for a surprise. they are not frigidaire and they are not in a box. they are wrapped individually in bubble wrap.not a single marking on filter as to manufacturer or filter size. absolutely no installation instructions at all. they will not tell you the manufacturer except that it is a reputable manufacturer. they do offer a ups return label if you are not satisfied, except i am sure you forfeit your original postage of $7 dollars plus, so they expect me to return these and lose the postage? for about $5.00 more or $59.95 i found the original fridgidaire filters in a box,and that includes postage on ebay.i will eat these phony frigidaire filters but i also think they should stop advertising them as fridgedaire filters in original box.

The description of this product is false. It is not a Frigidaire filter. Best price I've found for the real thing is at Appliance Zone $15 gets you the real PureSource filter!Read Best Reviews of Frigidaire WF1CB Replacement Filter, 1 Pack Here
Not a Frigidaire Filter, bought 2 filters but could have bought 3 of same from other seller. Amazon should remove item. Didn't read reviews, did not think I needed to for such a simple item. Instead, they sent me a different filter that fits. It came in a different box. The picture they have on is wrong.Thursday, July 24, 2014
Avanti : WC1500DSS 15 Built-Avanti : WC1500DSS 15 Built-in Wine Cooler with 30-Bottle Capacity
- Holds 30 Wine Bottles
- Removable Stainless Steel Handle
- Interior Fan for adequate circulation
- Soft Interior lighting
- Tempered Glass
ADDENDUM So, it's now 3 months since the replacement arrived and this one is going bad too. Apparently the fan is shot. Just not quality products. My advice is spend the extra and buy from one of the better manufacturers.Buy it, enjoy it, pray it never needs service. Because if you ever need a part, more than likely, you are going to be flat out of luck.
I have a 35-bottle Avanti cooler that is a few years old. The thermostat went out on it. I called Avanti.
Them: That unit has been discontinued.
Me: OK, how do I go about getting a replacement thermostat?
Them: That unit has been discontinued.
Me: Can you recommend an appliance parts store that may have a replacement thermostat?
Them: No.
Hoping that I had just had the bad luck to have drawn a service rep who was having a bad day, I called again later. Same story.
I spent hours searching the Internet for a replacement part. No luck there, either.
So, buy it, enjoy it, and pray you never need service.We bought the wine cooler to replace a trash compactor that we never used. It's not quiet (quite noticable when it's running) but I can live with that. What annoys me is that when the power goes out (happens a lot in Houston) the cooler resets to factory defaults, ignoring any temperature you set and forgetting other settings like Celcius versus Fahrenhiet. Since I use it to store red wine this results in the wine being much colder than it should be. For this reason I cannot recommend this product to anyone serious about red wine.I purchased this model to replace a trash compactor in my kitchen during a remodel 2 years ago. When the cooler was first installed, it was kind of loud, but not too bad. Over time the motor has gotten measurably louder. Now, when it kicks on, it sounds like a garbage disposal. I've turned it off and am looking to replace it as soon as possible. I cannot recommend this unit.We ordered and installed this wine chiller six months ago and we are greatly enjoying it. My only wish is that there was a way to lock the controls. They are so sensitive, that any random touch can change the settings, and even turn the unit off. Other than that, it is a great little built in unit.

Avanti : 248YB Refrigerator
- Avanti 248YB 2.5CF Compact Refrigerator (Black)
- AVANTI
Three months ago, a second one gave up.
The first time, they changed the unit because it was under warranty.
The second time they refused to change it because they said that it was not under warranty anymore.
Now I know why the warranty is only 1 year...because there product is not reliable and I advise any reader to go with another brand if you don't want to be in the same situation.
Two fridges down out of 4...do the maths ;-)

Fisher Paykel E522BRXU2 17.6 cu. ft. Counter Depth Refrigerator - Right Hinge
PROs:
Small footprint
Great looks, clean, classy, angular
Efficient use of space
Lots of nifty features and nice touches you'd expect for the price
Acceptably energy-efficient
BUT here come the
CONS:
Dents easily out of nowhere, it's enough for someone to walk by it
It's mechanically unreliable the ice tray quit working years ago, the screen is erratic and either works, works partially or not at all, some compartment doors snapped out within the first six months, etc.
It's expensive to fix, even a service diagnostic call will cost you a bundle
Fisher & Paykel customer service is horrid
Bottom line: if you can find a similar size fridge from someone else, buy it you'll save a lot of money, headaches and frustration. It is a shame really because I really do love my fridge but it's been a thorn in my side for most of the time I've owned it,

SquareTrade 3-Year Appliance Protection Plan ($350-400)
This means that according to SquareTrade, any tech can come and charge pretty much anything, and that charge will unquestioningly be deducted from their budget for your item. If they hire bad techs, you get penalized for it; if the problem recurs, well... tough.
If you decide to purchase this, know at least that the value of the warrantee is potentially very limited it might be worth a replacement machine or a timely repair, but it might also be worth no more than one unproductive tech visit.I bought this service for the Omega vert 350 HD juicer.It is a very good price for a product that runs $350-$400. I recently had to use it to replace the filter and it was really easy to use, the customer service and response time was very good. I would strongly recommend this service for anybody buying anything that is very expensive.

GE WR60X10141 Refrigerator Evaporator Fan Motor Assembly, 1/8 X 2-1/2 Inch, 115V, 3 watts
I used the YouTube video for reference. It took a few minutes to disassemble the parts in the freezer area so I could reach the fan. It didn't appear that I had an ice buildup problem but I decided to let the existing frost to melt while I took a look at the fan. I removed the fan mount assembly and there didn't seem to be anything wrong with the fan motor at the time but I suspected it might need a little oil on the bushing/bearing. I also suspected that the evaporator fan motor might need to be replaced because of bushings/bearings that had worn loose. Before deciding to buy and replace the entire evaporator motor I wanted to see if the bushing was simply freezing up and needed lubricant. I put a few drops of Teflon based oil on the fan motor spindle and let it soak into the bushing/bearing area.
After about twenty minutes of letting the freezer defrost I reassembled the fan motor with its mount and the rest of the items back into the freezer. I plugged the freezer power back into the electrical socket and the refrigerator turned on. I didn't hear any excessively loud noise but the loud sound from the evaporator fan had been intermittent before so I waited and listened. It seemed as though my effort had mostly solved the problem of the fan noise...kind of. The fan would still not sound right at times but it make the noise as frequently nor as loud as it had been before.
The noise from the fan in the freezer had improved but it still was a little noisy at times. This continued for six months until the late spring and early summer this year when the freezer fan condenser motor started sounding extremely loud again. After some searching and cross checking to make sure I had the right GE (Hotpoint, etc.) fan motor part I looked here on Amazon and ended up purchasing this exact evaporator motor part WR60X10141. The fan evaporator fan motor was shipped the next day from the seller and I received it very promptly just a few days later. During this time my original evaporator fan motor would continue to cycle from a little noisy to very noisy and back to a little noisy.
A week after receiving the new fan evaporator motor part that I purchased on Amazon I decided it was time to change it out. Just for good measure I put two drops of Teflon oil on the lower part of the motor spindle at bushing and let it soak into the bushing/bearing. I repeated the procedure to disassemble the items in the freezer area. I moved the food in the freezer, unplugged the refrigerator and followed the YouTube instruction video. This time I had to remove the fan blade and disassemble the fan motor housing to replace the old fan motor with the new one. There are two rubber motor mounts that hold the motor and absorb any vibration while the fan spins. These rubber motor mounts can be replaced but mine seemed to be in good condition. Just for good measure because the front motor mount had probably been worked a lot from the vibration of the previous motor I decided to swap these rubber motor mounts by moving the back mount to the front and front mount to the back of the motor.
Before you replace the old motor with the new one and before you remove the fan from the motor spindle you should take notice of the fan's positioning on the metal motor spindle and how far the spindle sticks out from the fan when the fan is mounted on it. It will help with this next tip. During reassembly I decided to slide the fan blade slightly father back (between a sixteenth of an inch to an eight of any inch) more than it had been mounted before I removed the fan. This would give the fan a bit more room away from the metal evaporator cover and fan vent hole in front of it. I left about a quarter inch or slightly more of the metal fan motor spindle exposed in front of the fan blade part itself which was just a slight bit more space than it had before.
I suspected that when the fan had made the noise before that it might have been hitting the hole in that metal cover that it blows air through. Moving the fan slightly farther back on the motor spindle also seated the fan itself a little closer to the fan motor mount (and closer in distance to the fan motor) which according to basic physics should make the entire assembly a little more stable and have less tendency to want to wobble and wear out the motor bushing/bearing. For those who replace this part and watch the YouTube video beforehand you will understand why I am recommending this slight adjustment from how the fan was originally placed on the metal motor spindle. This adjustment is simple but don't push the fan too far back or it will be too far from the hole for the fan and the fan could strike the motor mount assembly itself. When you push the fan back onto the spindle just make it a little bit farther back (between 1/16th to 1/8th of an inch) towards the motor than it was before your removed it.
Conclusion: This is a fairly easy project to do. If you suspect your noisy evaporator fan motor needs to be replaced make sure you have the right fan motor part number for your model of refrigerator. During my online search I noticed that many different sellers are selling this same part for similar GE and Hotpoint models. You can pay up to eighty dollars for this part through major online vendors. Some are certified GE parts that cost the seller more money and I suspect may just be the exact same motor replacement part manufactured in China. While it may be identical the official GE part might be mandated for their own warranty repairs or it is possible that GE may or may not do additional quality testing on the motor before they put the exact same motor in an official GE box. My part came in a simple little brown box and this much less expensive costing replacement motor (at time of purchase less than $25) that I received from the advertised seller SupplyEdge was brand new and looked absolutely identical to the motor that it replaced and that included the WR60X10141 model number and etched markings on the back. The Amazon vendors by far seemed to have the best prices for this evaporator motor and just as it was my experience the other most of the other Amazon reviewers said the part was shipped and received promptly. I recommend this product as an excellent replacement part. I would also recommend that everyone follows the YouTube instruction video for reference. Simply do a search for "GE refrigerator evaporator fan motor replacement" or "GE refrigerator fan noise". Motor was exactly just like what was on the Fridge. Easy to remove and reinstall.
You tube has a great Video if you need to know how to do it and are not that handy..
Motor works just like the orig lets hope however it lasts longer than 4 years.

Great price, and easy to install myself. I can buy several for the price of a service call, and spend less time on the install than I would waiting for the tech to show up.I installed it using a YouTube video as a guide. Uneventful. What else is there to say? It's a fan.Shipping was super fast. Product was identical to the original replaced fan motor. The packaging could have been a little more padded I believe, as I was concerned about the shaft being susceptible to bending, but it was fine. Absolutely no wobble or imbalance after installation. Quiet as a mouse!Tuesday, November 19, 2013

Kenmore 46-9990 NSF Certified Refrigerator Water Filter, Certified Green, Made in North America 2 P
- Swift Green replacement filter for Kenmore 46-9990. NSF and WQA certified filters.
Then I got wise, began using Amazon to scout out my filter, and am much happier. The Green Filter seems to be working fine once broken in (*see below), and I haven't noticed any difference in taste from my old water.
Of course, I take both brands at their word as to filtration effectiveness -I can only tell that the taste is still delicious. I live near a little town named Mineral, and it's called that for a reason: besides gold, silver and lead, our soil is packed with a host of unpronounceable minerals. (To name a few: alamandine, bornite, chalcopyrite, copper, cuprite, gahnite, galena, hornblende, magnetite, pyrite, pyrrhotite, scheelite, sphalerite, sulphur, tremolite, and tourmaline)...all I need is salt and pepper.
malachite
Anyway, I'm pleased to say that my savings of over 60 percent is fine by me.
(*Breaking in requires running off at least two gallons of water before drinking)I didn't think that the filters were going to fit our refrigerator at first since they were a difference size, but they did. We have been using one for a few months now and it works well.The filters looked a lot like the original, but the end that inserts into the refrigerator and connects to the water supply was made just a little different. The original will "snap" into place when you turn it a little, and these won't "snap". They will connect, though, and they don't leak, so I'm Ok with them, and the price is right.Description says it fits the Kenmore 9990. It did not fit my Kenmore refrigerator the filter for my Kenmore 9990 is bigger around.
