Replacement filter does not work
I bought the genuine replacement filter for my Samsung Bespoke 4 door flex fridge when the bought the appliance 6 months ago. As soon as the fridge told me to replace the filter, I did so. What a mess! It leaked everywhere. Then I looked here and saw that this is an ongoing issue. Has Samsung fixed this since I bought the filter? Not only did I purchase the Bespoke fridge, I also purchased the matching range and microwave at the same time. Is this really how you treat customers? What is the fix for these defective filters?
Thanks for sharing your review, LindaL. Let's go ahead and check why the water filter is leaking. Many times when you see a pool of water (or one that froze into a sheet of ice), it can often be attributed to condensation or a spill you didn't notice. The most common place to see the water is at the bottom of the compartment, below the vegetable or crisper drawers. Please visit these links for details.

Easy to install!
very easy to install. i had to use pliers to remove the existing water filter but it was not that bad. i was really worried from the other reviews about the water filter not fitting but i did not have any issues installing the new one. i believe the year model of my refrigerator is 2020.
That is great news! I'm happy you didn't run into problems installing the water filter. ^Pat
GET IT TOGETHER SAMSUNG!!!
I bought this fridge because it is a Samsung. There is a water pitcher in mine that is supposed to refill automatically, but it's hit and miss. Which is sooooo disappointing because that's one of the things that sold me on this particular refrigerator. I'm going to need to order a filter now and reading these reviews is not encouraging. PLEASE TELL ME SAMSUNG HAS DONE SOMETHING ABOUT THIS ISSUE THEY ARE VERY AWARE OF?
Hello there. We all know a working auto-fill pitcher is needed for you to get a glass of water. Let's go ahead and provide you with a guide on this. There's nothing more refreshing than a glass of nice cool water, and having a pitcher full of it and ready to go is quite handy. Please check these links for details.

Seems Prone To Leaking
I purchased a genuine replacement filter using the Samsung Subscription Service. The filter replacement seemed easy enough...unscrew the old filter and screw in the new filter. I did this in the evening and at the time everything seemed ok. I woke up the next morning and my kitchen AND Basement was flooded. Several thousands of dollars in damage. When I removed the new filter I installed I could tell the water was dripping from the plunger/nozzle on the filter housing. Not enough to give any warning at the time of the replacement of the filter. As evident with the numerous bad reviews there seems to be a design flaw or just plain bad engineering with the filtration system. I would highly recommend staying away from Samsung Refrigerators.

Does not last or bought a defective pack
this product did not serve our expectations. i understand we drink water daily but the original filter that came along with the fridge when purchased alone lasted 6 months. this pack we purchased from here we completely went through a 3 pack in less than 6 months.
Hi Shawn, We appreciate your time in reaching out to us and we are glad that you purchased and chose our product. It warms our hearts to know that our Samsung Refrigerator and filters are part of your family now. We apologize for the inconvenience of the water filter only lasting less than 6 months. This happens depending on the quality of the water in your area and the amount of water you dispense, you may want to change the filter more or less frequently than the light suggests. We understand that our product is a little expensive, however, you won't regret the quality of water that will be produced. We will surely notate your feedback about this matter for better products in the future. I highly recommend clicking these links for a basic troubleshooting guide for future reference: Proper guide in replacing the water filter: Reset the water filter light. https://www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00060149/ You may also use this link for regular maintenance of your refrigerator's lifetime: https://www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00079481/ If repair is needed, please take note of your warranty coverage: https://www.samsung.com/us/support/service/warranty/ If you need further assistance, please reach us through the following options: 1.

Works! No leaks here
I held off on buying these for a year or two because of the reviews. Haha. May have been a first timers luck, but I had no issue installing it in my 4 door, 28cu, smart hub fridge. No leaks or anything unusual rather than water sputtering out of water dispenser for a few seconds as it adjusted to the new filter. I didn't turn off my water (tough to get to without scratching my tile floors), but just gently turned the water filter into place until it caught and went in. Had to do an extra rotation at first since it didn't seem aligned, but eventually went in, no problem. Best of luck! Hopefully my luck continues... haha
Works as intended but instuctions are lacking
Water filter works as intended, however the instructional video provided on the Samsung product page has left out a very important detail. To avoid damaging the fridge and to make the replacement smoother, remember to shut off the water line to you fridge.
You Get What You Pay For...
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] With off-brand filters, you are not sure if you are filtering your water or contaminating it. With Samsung, I trust that only the finest media and containers are used in all of their consumer products. The filters last up to six months and there is never a question about water quality.
Great Availabilty
very happy replacement filters are readily available for our Samsung refrigerator. What would be best is to change the product packing from hard plastic to a paper based package. The hard plastic is very hard to remove and when cut to release the filter the plastic edges are extremely sharp and cause cuts.
Does Not Filter Out Many Chemicals!!
Just bought a Samsung refrigerator . Ran over a gallon of water through the system. I tested the water from the fridge and got 154 PPM. I tested the water from the tap and it was 171 PPM. Apparently it doesn’t filter out a lot of chemicals. I had a Zero Water that I discarded because the fridge had a filter. That was a mistake. There is no listing of the filter’s efficacy. I wonder why! Will have to install a filtration system prior to connecting to the fridge.
