Easy to install and a good price

Great low-cost replacement for GE XWFE filters. Search Reddit for how to remove the label from the XWFE filter with a hair dryer then tape it to the back of the fridge. The XWFE label has an embedded RFID chip -- if the fridge does not detect this it will not dispense water! These generic XWF's work just as well at one-third the cost.

The WATERDROP (XWF) WD-F48 WATER FILTERS 3-pack arrived in a timely manner, individually wrapped in plastic and packed in a brown cardboard box. Each of the three water filters is true to size and offers good filtration for the money. Online information gives the filtration capabilities.The filters are cylindrical with a turning handle at one end and two projecting wedges at the other. They measure 2.25 inches in diameter by 6.13 inches. These filters are exact replacements for factory branded filters. Instructions are located online and in the refrigerator manual. The degree of filtration required is dictated by the water source. This filter is an intermediate grade and useful where there are minimal pesticides and industrial chemicals. This is a good value for someone who needs an intermediate capability filter for a larger GE refrigerator.Enjoy!Highly Recommended.

These filters WILL work as an XWFE water filter replacement, you just have to do an easy DIY workaround.According to the manual, if your fridge did not come with a water filter bypass, GE will mail you one for free. I called GE with my fridge model and serial number, and ~2 weeks later my Water filter bypass had arrived for free just as they said. You can install this in place of a water filter and never worry about them again, but since I still wanted filtered water I had to do a bit of a work around. Using a hair dryer, I heated up the sticker on the bypass part and carefully removed it. Took a couple of minutes and I was very careful as underneath is an RFID chip which tells the fridge a filter (or in this case a bypass) is present and allows it to dispense water. The sticker actually came off in 2 forms. The first was the top sticker and then I was able to remove the bottom sticker with the RFID chip. Again, be careful since you an easily rip the metal and destroy the chip, rendering the bypass component entirely.One I removed the sticker, I stuck it to a piece of heavy duty plastic the bypass plug came in and then stuck it to the top sticker I peeled off. Then I stuck the piece to the fridge where it would line up when installed properly. Next, I installed these XWF water filters and just like magic, I had myself filtered water at a fraction of the price of GEs filters.The filters themselves appear to work great! Water tastes good (can taste the difference) and the flow rate is good. Considering I bought this 3 pack for less than 1 GE rip off filter, I am thrilled!I will note that you can take the RFID sticker off any GE filter. The problem with this is after so many gallons or 6 months the filter will read as bad and your light will come on. There is no way to turn it off unless you get a new RFID filter/sticker. The bypass plug doesn’t have this issue as it disables this filter light/alarm. This product comes with stickers saying the month of install, so I put one on the filter and plan to change it out once it starts to clog and flow rate decreases or after ~6 months which is recommended by GE.

These filters work great and are affordable.

Good quality and easy to install.
