Product Packaging
I always buy Samsung genuine filters. I know you are fighting thefts but at what expense. Honestly I have to work hard to get the filter out of the packaging. The plastic is so hard and no way to open it so I have to cut open the packaging which creates sharp edges and points. Honestly, this is at best dangerous. I really would not want to injure myself just to get the product. Can you please do something to make this better?

Absolutely Awful Packaging. Wear Gloves To Open
This review is strictly for the packaging you put this filter in. I am typing this with fully bandaged hands as you made the plastic impossible to come apart and now I have lost several layers of skin on my hands. I now require assistance doing simple household tasks like using a fork or using the restroom. I hope whoever decided this packaging was right for this filter has a horrible summer and stubs their toe every time they walk to the restroom in the middle of the night.

Difficult to remove and reinstall
The filter is very hard to unscrew from the refrigerator. There is no way to unscrew it with your hand. The small handle slipped out of my hand. I had to get a 12 inch pair of pliers to grip it tight enough to remove and just as bad to reinstall. The water was off and the pressure released. I believe the refrigerator has a defective receptacle for the filter. I even coated the o-rings with rubber lube.
Filter works well
i seem to disagree with the other reviewers. i followed the instructions, but the filer was very difficult to remove, so the first time i called samsung's help line to see if it was ok to remove with a pliers. they said "yes". i removed and reinstalled with no problem. we drink a lot of water, so i knew the filer wasn't going to last 6 months; it lasted about 3-3 1/2. our house has a whole house filter on it anyway, but this filter seems to make the water taste cleaner. even the cats prefer water from the refrigerator than the tap! i usually order two filters at a time, in case they are on back order. this will be my third filter. i have no complaints!
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.
forced Enrollment
Seems impossible to order a filter without being enrolled in that silly monthly plan. I specifically deslected the box for the enrollment twice and each time got enrolled and charged for it.

Do not get moneys worth.
our water starts to taste unappealing when the filter needs to be changed. ive never had one last 6 months. this one lasted 38 days. definitely not worth the money.

Tricky installation but very good filter
It’s tricky to install. Official instructions are incorrect. Check YouTube for installation. If installed properly it works perfectly, very good filter.
Bad Fit
I’ve replaced the filter twice. The first time it was hard to fit, and the second one just didn’t work. Something is not right with these filters. Replacing them shouldn’t be this hard.
