Swift Green Repl. for Samsung DA29-00003G

Swift Green Repl. for Samsung DA29-00003GBought a two-pack a year ago. The appeal for me is they have a 'greener' manufacturing process, assuming of course the description is on the up and up. To get the best filtration/taste, it _is_ important to ensure that the full amount of initial water run-through is done, otherwise you may notice some odd taste.

Our Samsung stock filters were very slow after about a week of use. These are much better but there seems to be a chlorine aftertaste that we did not get as much of before. Jury is still out.

This refrigerator is awful. The ice and water in the door is impossible to use. We get water and ice all over the floor no matter how hard we try not too. Its a design flaw. Also the doors do not close properly, service says its just how they are made, not a defect. I hate this refrigerator.

Select DA29-0003B Samsung and Whirlpool Compatible Refrigerator Water Filter

Select DA29-0003B Samsung and Whirlpool Compatible Refrigerator Water Filter
  • The Replacement Filter fits all refrigerators that use the Samsung Aqua-Pure Plus DA29-00003B water filter.
  • Retains the flouride in drinking water. Filters out chlorine, turbidity, sediment, dirt, and rust

Bought this filter instead of the DA29-00003G because the DA29-00003B is all Sears had. The two are supposed to be interchangeable. The O'rings are the exact same size and the filter fits right into the socket, but water poors from the socket where the filter screws in, filling the fridge full of water.

This isn't the first time I've had discrepencies like this with Samsung's part numbers. I had to replace the ice maker last year and the ice maker they sent me had the exact same part number except it had a different last letter like this filter. It was supposed to be compatable. It looked the same, but would not fit into the freezer's socket/tabs. I went back and forth several times with Samsung over this and finally GAVE UP! The internal parts of the two ice makers were the same so I took the brand new ice maker apart (voiding the warranty) and transferred the new parts over to the old ice maker.

A company like Samsung should not be having problems like this.

Best advice is to AVOID Samsung all together.

Samsung Rb215acpn 21 Cu. Ft. Full Size Bottom Freezer Refrigerator - Platinum

Samsung Rb215acpn 21 Cu. Ft. Full Size Bottom Freezer Refrigerator - Platinum
  • Twin Cooling System with Surround Air Flow
  • Power Freeze and Power Cool
  • Open Door Alarm and Kid-friendly EZ-Open Handle
  • External Digital Display and Control
  • Internal Filtered Ice and Water Dispensers

On this website & several other, this refrigerator indicates that it has a water filter & dispenser

"Convenient display shows the inside temperatures, when to change the filter, and controls the ice and water dispenser."

This refrigerator has NEITHER

I purchased this item sight unseen relying on the information advertised to be true. When I received the refrigerator without these items I was told that by the Samsung customer support & Executive Customer Relations that it was a mistake on the website (this isn't the only site that indicates that this model has a water dispenser google it). That's unfortunate because water dispenser is one major reason I chose this single door model. Hopefully the site will be updated but it doesn't help me. I will be returning it, & not for another Samsung because they feel that having *feature subject to change* on the bottom of the webpage is enough to justify missing features. Consumers generally chose one product over another based on the features so this is a lame excuse.

LG LFX25976SW 24.7 cu. ft. French Door Refrigerator - White

LG LFX25976SW 24.7 cu. ft. French Door Refrigerator - WhiteI bought this LG french door refrigerator (with ice & water in the door) in July of 2008. It's design (especially coveted the ice/water shelf for pichers) and energy star standing coupled with price (not bought at Amazon) led to choosing LG. Immediately the ice dispenser began jamming, a regular occurrence onward. I experimented with different size cubes but that had no impact on the jamming. We use the ice dispenser multiple times daily. It soon was clear to me the failing was a design fault not a mechanical failure. We previouly had for 19 years an in the door dispenser that had never once failed-it was an auger type that occupied the top left shelf in the refrigerator. The LG is totally in the door and basically relies on gravity to feed the ice. A few months later we got notice that the Energy Star rating did not apply to this refrigerator after all. LG offered a repair or monthly check up to a total of $170. I wrote back that since they had miss represented the refrigerator and the Energy Star rating was a major factor in my purchase choice I wanted the refrigerator replaced. I never heard back from them. After about 2 years of use the temperature control became erratic. Faced with a joice of repair or replace (and really frustrated with the ice dispenser and their refusal to respond to my request for a replacement refrigerator) I choose to replace the LG. As of last Friday, I own a similar Samsung refrigerator (although is is 4 cubic feet larger inside thru design efficiencies). After realizing LG was not going to respond to my request, I began purging LG possesions. I first got rid of my LG cell phone, replacing it with a Motorola. Next will be my LG Blue Ray player.

Ice dispenser jammed most of the time , especially after we used the " crush " feature then switch to " cube" .

The icemaker isself is a bad design . The motor actually turn and twist the ice tray to release ice ( not like the other model which heat up the tray to release ice ). After so many twist and turn, the wire harness which connect to the temp sensor underneath the ice tray broke internally rending the icemaker inop .

If you live in the region with hard water ( Ft Myers, FL as an example ) then the calcification with stick to the ice tray which ,in turn, to cause at least half the amount of ice cubes stick to the tray ,only half of them drop down to the ice bin. This also cause the icemaker mechanism to go bad when its motor try too hard to twist the tray ... end up stripping the gear inside . Within 2 1/2 years ... I had to replace the icemaker twice

Ice bin too small, not enough ice for family of 4 in a hot summer days unless you empty the ice into a bucket which locate in freezer compartment. I'll never recommend this model to anyone

Bought this frig 1 1/2 years ago. It was during the time LG was selling them for around $1300.00 at Home Depot.Retail was $2400.00 We have only

used this frig for about 5 months because it is used in a cottage we shut down during the winter.The best thinf about the frig is it's looks.

The frig temperature runs about 5 degrees

warmer than the readout states. Chilled water isn't cold enough.When you try and get ice, the auger runs but it takes up to a minute to fill a glass with ice.And now the icemaker quit making ice altogether. Nothing. Not a single cube.We use this frig mostly on weekends.It gets very little use.We are very disappionted with this frig and LG won't be a choice when buying future products.

I like the spacious room that this refrigerator has which is why I gave it 3 stars. I read the previous review about the ice maker and couldn't agree more. The ice maker dispenser doesn't dispense properly. We are constantly unjamming the ice every time it's needed. The water dispenser doesn't dispense cold water, just cool, which is why we need to add ice. LG needs to completely re-design their ice dispenser unit. This one is terrible.

I bought this fridge the same time I purchased GE Profile dishwasher, gas range and microwave. LOVE my other appliances, but this fridge has an exterior surface that is impossible to clean and shine. No matter what I've tried (Stainless cleaners, all purpose cleaners, window cleaners, soapy water, etc), nothing removes the ugly streaks! It's only 1 year old and looks terrible, while my GE appliances look as beautiful as they did the day I bought them! By the way, no children in my house. This CAME with the streaks and Tthey are not removable!

Got this belt for my samsung. This is the third time replacing this belt in the 5 years I've owned my dryer. This one has "belts" inside to maintain strength, but I don't think it helps. I would get 2 now and tape the other to your dryer. The belts are relatively inexpensive and I have the steps to replace down pretty good now. Whole job takes about 25-35 minutes.

It's amazing that we owned a cheapo dryer for 15 years and never broke a belt. Now I've replaced 3 on my high-tech expensive dryer!!! humpf..

General Electric CSCP5UGXSS: GE Cafe 24.6 Cu. Ft. Counter-Depth Side-by-Side Refrigerator

General Electric CSCP5UGXSS: GE Cafe 24.6 Cu. Ft. Counter-Depth Side-by-Side Refrigerator
  • Counter-depth configuration
  • Cafe stainless steel
  • Temperature management
  • Express Chill
  • Quick Ice setting

We bought the GE Cafe refrigerator, range, dishwasher and microwave three years ago. They've all mostly performed to our expectations, until two weeks ago when our 3 yr old refrigerator stopped working. We were of course upset to have such an expensive appliance break after three years, but this type of thing can happen. It's what has happened over the past two weeks that has turned off us from this refrigerator and GE. We've had the computer changed multiple times, we've had the compressor replaced, and each time we've waited several days for appointments with a GE technician, where there was no flexibility with scheduling the appointment. In a household with two kids it's not too easy to function without a fridge, and to have GE continually be slow to respond, and not actually fix the problem (when we are PAYING for the service), has been very upsetting. It's still not fixed.

Lesson here: check the service reviews in addition to the straight product functionality.

Buy General Electric CSCP5UGXSS: GE Cafe 24.6 Cu. Ft. Counter-Depth Side-by-Side Refrigerator Now

I purchased this model from a local dealer for our kitchen remodel that we had planned for a long time. We tried to pick a line that offered the basic appliances as a set so that they match in the kitchen. The outer appearance of the Cafe series is very pleasing, but the functionality and design are horrible. My biggest complaint is with the refrigerator. Living in a warm/hot climate makes readily available ice a necessity. This was my complaint with the previous refrigerator (Maytag) that it didn't produce ice. This one is worse. Being counter depth it has an ice tray/bin that is angled up toward the dispenser, and uses a screw mechanism to carry the ice to the dispenser(uphill). This does not work well for transporting ice cubes, and they accumulate at the base of the bin. This fools the sensor into thinking it doesn't need to produce ice. Very, very poor design. Temperature settings are difficult to sustain, and sometimes it seems to change them itself. The refrigerator side is very poorly designed as well. Containers of milk and cola do not fit well, and shelf spacing seems very awkward. I feel fortunate that I have not had some of the problems others have reported. We are on our third year, and based on others we should expect issues to begin appearing(extended warranty running out). I wish I knew what to recommend, but this isn't it.

We bought this for Kenmore 80 series Dryer, The part does not fit the handle at all. At the moment I thought I could not use it at all.

I finally figure out that I could take out the adapter(Not the Handle) and attach the Old adapter of the original filter. I finally did it but It took me huge effort, but I almost broke the part.

Now it is working well though. All in all, If you buy this part for Kenmore 80 Dryer, consider the risk.

The filter that came with our rather old Whirlpool dryer needed replacing because after many years of service its handle broke off. This replacement filter is an exact fit dimensionally, but feels a bit less solid so it might not last as long as the one that came with the dryer. However, given the age of this dryer, the new filter probably won't have to last as long as the original one did.

perfect fit and replaces original exactly. being able to purchase online, for the reasonable price was greatly appreciated, and swift turn around kept the laundry moving!

Frigidaire FFU14F5HW 14.0 Cu. Ft. Upright Freezer - WhiteFrigidaire FFU14F5H 1

Frigidaire FFU14F5HW 14.0 Cu. Ft. Upright Freezer - White
  • White 14.0 cu. ft. upright freezer
  • Frost free operation
  • Ready-Select controls with upfront display
  • Automatic alert if freezer door is left open or temperature rises
  • Lock with pop-out key

Freezer is still working fine after a at least three years. I had thought it failed at one point, but it turned out some men working in my basement must have played around with the temperature buttons (on the front which must be tempting to play with) and instead of putting it back to 4, they left it at 0, which is off. Everything thawed and had to be thrown out. I was upset and I wrote a bad review which I'm taking back now. What I like about it is that it has a LIGHT and it's not too big. It's more economical to have a stuffed freezer than a half empty one, since the frozen food helps keep things cold so the freezer doesn't have to come on as often (same concept as why our ice caps are melting so much faster now that some of them have melted...) Chests are supposed to hold the cold in better than the uprights, since cold air sinks and won't fall out when you open it. Since I only need to open it about once a week, the convenience of an upright outweighs the minor loss of cold. So, I feel I made a good choice all around.

It's the day before Thanksgiving 2010 and I just discovered that my less-than-three-month-old freezer FFU14F5HWJ (installed 28 August 2010)has stopped working, ruining everything for I bought Thanksgiving Dinner.

My experience casts very serious doubt on the quality of any Frigidaire product.

Read Best Reviews of Frigidaire FFU14F5H 1 Here

Purchased this unit a month ago. It runs 35 to 40 minutes out of the hour. The fan is so loud we hear it throughout the house. The service guy who came to check it out said all that was totally normal, just get used to it. Also was told the fan was in all frost free freezers. Why the fan has to be so loud is a mystery. Buy something other than this unit.......

Want Frigidaire FFU14F5H 1 Discount?

I have this freezer for a few months now. Bought it after some research but mainly because it is very good value for the price and got decent (though not great) ratings from ConsumerReports which I trust. It ranked excellent on temperature and fair on energy consumption and noise but looking at the differences in annual operation cost this really isn't a great factor for me it can be around $30 A YEAR between the best freezer and the worst (more or less). Manual defrost are more efficient but I didn't want one of these and again, the difference is minor.

I store it in my garage so noise is not an issue. Note that unlike other vendors, the manual for this one says very clearly that it CAN be used in temperatures under 32F, so storing it in a garage is not an issue.

There's a display on the freezer door but it just displays the level not the temperature. However it is still nice to have some indication of the level and mainly some indication that the freezer is on. Also, there's a 'door ajar' alarm and low temperature alarm. The level setting can be locked to avoid accidental changing.

the freezer has a manual lock too

shelves are wire so no 'luxury' here but still their pretty solid and very functional. there's a basket at the bottom shelf which is useful. Also, there is plenty of storage space on door shelves although the shelves do not seem so sturdy.

light inside the freezer is very bright and it's easy to find stuff even in the dark garage.

overall build quality looks pretty good. It was very easy to level the freezer legs. The installer did this for me but then I had to move the freezer to another spot so had to level myself. Very easy.

I hope it doesn't quit on me like it did on other reviewers here. So far, I'm pretty happy with this freezer and it seems like a good buy and good value for the money.

things I would improve are:

* more robust shelves both in the freezer and in the door

* temperature display outside

but other than these I feel this is a very good product for the price

My wife and I bought this freezer from Lowe's less than 2 years ago. 1 year ago, the digital control unit failed and we almost lost hundreds of dollars worth of meat. Last week, the unit stopped cooling and again we had to put hundreds of dollars worth of meat elsewhere. My wife spent hours on the phone with Frigidaire, who finally agreed to pay for parts and labor in order to fix the unit. We called one of their contractors who came out that very day. He spent 30 minutes or so doing various checks and found that there was a leak in the interior wall, which he said could not be fixed. He then called Frigidaire and they told him they wouldn't do anything. My wife called again and they refused to replace or even have the decency to give a discount on another unit. She told them that they would be losing their reputation and that we would tell everyone considering their products not to buy them. Lesson learned NEVER BUY FRIGIDAIRE.

Frigidaire FRU17B2JW 16-2/3-Cubic-Foot All-Refrigerator, WhiteFrigidaire FRU17

Frigidaire FRU17B2JW 16-2/3-Cubic-Foot All-Refrigerator, White
  • All-refrigerator appliance with 16-2/3-cubic-foot capacity
  • 2 adjustable and 2 fixed wire shelves, 5 door racks, and a trivet
  • Operates in ambient temperature environments as low as 10 degrees F
  • Frost-free operation; interior light for easy viewing; hand wash only
  • Measures 26-1/2 by 32 by 64-1/2 inches; 1-year warranty

We are very happy with our refrigerator. We keep cold drinks in our garage and this was a perfect solution, as it has no freezer. We could not be happier with the product itsself.

However, delivery is absolutely unacceptable and we will not order large appliances from Amazon EVER again. The delivery team was just barely willing to get the box in the door of our garage. (I don't know what would have happened if we needed it in our 2nd floor kitchen.)

I had to man-handle the box into place, cut the layers of the box open and unscrew the attached wooden shipping pallet all by myself.

None of this would have been a big deal, but we did pay $120 for delivery and I was not expecting to have to do this all by myself before we could get cars back into our garage.

Buy Frigidaire FRU17 Now

The whole experience took a lot of time an hassle to finally get the fridge delivered. Product arrived with a dent in the door and scatches down the one side. I would have sent it back but that would just start the whole shipping nightmare over again. The fridge itself is not very energy efficient and it needs to be set on the highest setting to get stuff cold. For our garage this is fine but I would not buy this product to use inside as the motor is noisy. I guess you get what you pay for and this one is cheap all the way around.

Sunpentown WC-1271 ThermoElectric 12-Bottle Slim Wine Cooler

Sunpentown WC-1271 ThermoElectric 12-Bottle Slim Wine Cooler
  • 12-bottle slim wine cooler with thermoelectric technology
  • Touch-sensitive control panel and LED display; adjustable thermostat
  • Double-pane glass door; 5 slide-out chrome shelves; soft interior lighting
  • Freestanding; quiet operation; leveling legs for balance; ETL-approved
  • Measures 19-1/2 by 10-1/4 by 25-3/5 inches; 1-year limited warranty

Seems like a great product and value. However, they made the shelves too close together. It does hold the smallest bottles of wine, but many "Standard" bottles (Dancing Bull, Rancho Zabbaco, etc) don't fit unless they are jammed in and then you can't get them back out without unloading the whole thing. Don't waste your time and get a model that is more versatile. As if insult to injury, the thermostat didn't work either but that was probably a fluke.

I bought this wine cooler after reading some good reviews. It was a complete waste of time and money, the wine cooler worked for about 4 hours and then this uncontrolled beeping noise would continueoulsy play. I unplugged the unit and tried resetting it but the noise was still there when I plugged it back in. I called the company and all they said was it might be the control board. How does a wine cooler die after 4 hours.

My boyfriend bought this wine refrigerator for me as a birthday gift on a total whim. It was a fantastic, unexpected present and has so far worked perfectly for me. I've never owned a wine cooler previous to this one, but I do live in a smaller apartment, so it's compact size is exactly what I needed. As another review stated, the shelves are kind of close together preventing the BIGGER wine bottles from fitting side-by-side, however all standard wine bottles will fit. I tend to buy the larger bottles of Barefoot Moscato, in which case I simply remove one shelf for the time being. Personally, I'm not at the point where I've collected dozens of wines and will RARELY have more than 12 bottles at one time to fill this fridge anyway. All in all, it's a fantastic product that chills wines perfectly and fits just about anywhere. :)

I had this wine cooler for about 6 months before the temperature control stopped working and would not go below 68 degrees. I thought maybe the room was too warm, so I refrigerated a few bottles to see if it would at least maintain the current temperature, but within a few hours, those bottles were warm as well.

I tried contacting Amazon, who pointed me in the direction of the manufacturer, who of course, did not bother responding.

I am very disappointed and do not recommend this product. I will never purchase from this manufacturer again.

I gave it 2 stars because it was relatively quiet and compact.

Frigidaire Refrigerator Evaporator Fan Motor 5304445861

Frigidaire Refrigerator Evaporator Fan Motor 5304445861
  • REPAIR PART NUMBER 5304445861
  • REPAIR PART FOR FRIGIDAIRE, ELECTROLUX, KENMORE AND MORE
  • PART MEETS ALL OEM QUALITY STANDARDS MANUFACTURED BY A THIRD PARTY

My 3 year old Kenmore fridge failed (freezer compartment fine, but refrigerator compartment did not cool). I diagnosed the problem as the evaporator fan motor. This motor from Amazon is a compatible (hopefully improved) replacement part for a number of Frigidaire, Electrolux and Kenmore refrigerators. The price, with shipping was about 1/3 that of the "official" Kenmore part from Sears (same part #).

It differs slightly in structure from the original failed part, but I had no problem mounting and connecting it. Hopefully this is a better quality part than the original piece of crap that died after less than 3 years. My repaired fridge is now working great.

The part was shipped from PA, so I expected quick delivery to a northeast address. USPS tracking was provided, but it continued to show a date 26 days away, even on the day it arrived, 3 days after order. Great delivery performance -dumb tracking info!

couple this with a new head computer when the rectifier on the evap fan circuit burns up on the circuit board. This is often times the only two things you need to get a Frigidaire cold and running.

Want Frigidaire Refrigerator Evaporator Fan Motor 5304445861 Discount?

I had a compact Frigidaire refrigerator Model FRT045GM with failed evaporator fan motor. Freezer compartment would be at or near the correct temperature, but the refrigerator section would only get down to about 50 degrees. Observed fan not running, so I removed it. Quick test with a multimeter indicated the fan motor was no good. Contacted Frigidaire both commercial and homeowner divisions, neither of which even recognized my Model number, and both places said there are no servicable parts on any of the compact refrigerators anyway. The evaporator fan motor is actually very easy to remove just one screw secures the back panel on the interior of the freezer section. Remove the plastic panel and a foam panel behind that, and the evaporator fan motor is exposed, easily removed with just two screws. I couldn't believe an appliance repair motor such as this was even available through Amazon. I ordered this fan motor based solely on the fact that the picture looked nearly identical to my failed motor. None of the PN's matched up. Connections are different, so had to solder on female connectors to existing wires. Reused the plastic fan, and fan mounting bracket, plus rubber bushings that secure the motor front and back. New motor fit perfectly, works great, and I couldn't be happier!

easy to install---takes 10 to 15 minutes.saved me from a major expense of either paying for repair or buying a new fridge.only complaint was slow getting the shipment to the post office.

  • Boasts a sleek look with a black trimmed door, silver handle & five chrome-plated wine racks
  • Allows for nearly silent operation that wont disturb quiet spaces in your home

This is the second wine cellar I have purchased in the last 3 years and I researched this for a week. The last wine cellar I had was a bust from Oster, a great Black Friday deal but stopped working after 6 months. My experience was that it took several hours to cool down and it was realy picky about the ambient temperature. Just a little dust on the back cover sent the internal temp upward and really, all I wanted was chilled wine!!! After all my research, I kept coming back to this model. This has the "look" I wanted for my kitchen but I had never owned a product by this company. I did read the other reviews regarding the humming sound it makes but in my position my previous wine cellar sounded like a jet taking off each time you opened the door to get out a bottle of wine and it had to kick in to lower the internal temp again.

When I first unpacked the NewAir cellar, my first thought was wow, this is beautiful!! I got it set in it's new home by the wet bar and plugged it in. Gorgeous!! The temperature starting out showed 74 degrees and it was automatically set to go down to 54 degrees. And it got to 54 degrees....in 30 minutes!!!! I was shocked!! So by that time, I loaded about 10 bottles of wine into the cellar. It took about 1 1/2 hours total to chill all that wine that had been at room temperature. I am very impressed with this machine. As for the humming sound, I have yet to hear it. I know it is working because the wine is cold, but not sure what the other reviewer were describing...maybe my kitchen is just noisy!!hahaahaha

Anyway, I would not hesitate to recommend this cellar and will follow up in a few months with an additional review.

09/14/10 UPDATE:

As promised, I wanted to give an update on the New Air Wine Cooler. It is still as great as when I first got it. Because it is thermoelectric, dust does affect the temperature and I noticed that when we were finishing our kitchen remodel, all the dust from sawing wood and drywall did cause the temp to raise a few degrees. I just blew out the back and within 30 seconds the temp started to drop back to 52. Now when I see the temp go up to 53 or 54 I know it is time to blow out the back cover. I would say I do that once every 3 months and for the record, I feel like our house has an inordinate amount of dust year round so in a house with less dust this may not even be needed. I am still very happy with this purchase and highly recommend it.

Buy NewAir AW-180E Space Saver 18 Bottle Thermoelectric Wine Cooler, Black Now

I've only had this wine fridge for a short time, so I can't comment on its reliability (our last one which we purchased at Lowes lasted about 6 months). It looks good, is a convenient, compact size and seems to work well. But there's no way you can fit 18 bottles in it unless they're slim such as the standard Bordeaux and Alsace shapes. The chubbier Burgundy size and anything larger just won't fit. The only way to get them in is to remove every second rack and make sure you lie slim and chubby bottles side by side. Makes it closer to a 10-12 bottle fridge.

I bought this just over a year ago woke up one morning and it wasn't working no cool air, no led display. No reset button, no apparent way to fix it, other than trying to replace the circuit board in back of the unit. I called the retailer who I bought it from (through Amazon) and they said since the warranty is up, they would do nothing and recommended calling a local repairman.

Even when it was working, I had the unit set at 59 degrees and it never went lower than 63, even when I had my home's AC turned down the lower 70's.

I guess you get what you pay for I'll be spending more on my next one, and it won't be a Newair.

Want NewAir AW-180E Space Saver 18 Bottle Thermoelectric Wine Cooler, Black Discount?

I purchased this wine cooler about 8 months ago. I have seen the cooler not cool to the correct temperature on hot days, I live in Florida so there are a lot of them. I could have lived with this quirk. But a week ago it just stopped working(no cooling, no led display, nothing). I can see that the power supply inside the backpanel is flashing red and green leds, and makes a switching noise. I will not buy from NewAir again because this product is susceptible to breaking within 8 months of use.

We ordered this unit to replace our Magic Chef 12 bottle wine cooler. We wanted a unit that was larger and quieter. The AW-180E NewAir 18 is an attractive and stylish unit, and will look nice in any kitchen or dining room. It was easy to set-up (only the door handle needed to be attached). We were able to place 18 different size bottles of red and white wines inside it without any problem. The controls are simple and easy to operate, and the unit temperature (we set it at 60°F) was reached in a matter of hours and readily maintained. The blue interior light is a nice touch, too. My only reason for not giving it a Five Star rating is that, although quieter than the unit we replaced, it seems to runs continuously (i.e. does not cycle on and off) and therefore you will hear a continuous hum in a silent room. You will not hear it if other backgound noice is present like a TV or stereo. But, in a silent setting you will hear it. To be sure, perhaps a certain amount of noise is to be expected from any cooler. That said, the unit is not "silent."

AquaFresh Replacement Refrigerator Filter for Samsung DA29-00003G, 3-Pack

AquaFresh Replacement Refrigerator Filter for Samsung DA29-00003G, 3-PackI bought this product after reading the description and a customer reviewing confirming it was compatible with Samsung refrigerators DA29-0003G. The review mentioned it was only of a little different length/size but fit. That was why I placed my order without hesitation but NO!!! watch out. It looks exactly the same but with a tiny difference in the two teeth that have to fit in. They do not fit in and so you will never be able to turn it on to click.... I tried two of the three fitlers I received but they did not fit. I then tried again my old (not original) one and it went perfectly. I tried for a third time this new one but again it was never compatible as claimed in the description by the seller/manifacturer. It will go back and I just ordered a different (MADE IN USA)' filter of only $17.00 named Water Sentinel WSS-1 ..... Best Luck.

I wouldn't recommend purchasing. I would give it 0 stars if I could. Before purchasing this 3 pack I would first check to see if one fits your refrigerator first before purchasing a 3 pack. All of the 3 I got leaked.

Don't waste your money if you have a Samsung refrigerator, try the OEM filter or another brand. Thought I would save a few bucks, but feel I was ripped off with a poor quality imitation.

These filters are in every respect equal to and less expensive than the name brand Samsung filters and I would unhesitatingly recommend them to any one who uses this model of filter.
