 Rating:  - Works well, just make sure you get it filled with water firstAfter reading some of the previous reviews, I was a little hesitant to try the Brita out. I had no reason to worry, as it works like a champ and cost less than the GE OEM filter. The one trick I realized was that you couldn't just pour water in the center hole and expect it to fill the filter. The center hole fills up quickly, but doesn't actually fill up the entire filter. I had to pour water in the gaps around the center hole to truly fill the filter. You'll know when it's full, because it weighs ...

I am tring my second Brita and if my experiance with that ... Read More Rating: - A note on filter changes, read the instructions!The individuals complaining about reduced flow/noise most likely incorrectly installed the filter cartridge. The directions state the the filter must be filled with water before being installed. This step eliminates the problems with air in the lines and a "buzzing" sound that are being reported. The Brita filter, so far as I can tell, is identical in every way to the OEM, and does exactly the same job, a few dollars cheaper. Browse for similar items by category:
