Be Careful!! Not the same as the Samsung OEM
In any of the documentation I have found on this filter at other sites (not enough info on Amazon), it looks like this filter is cheaper as it doesn't filter the same stuff. It states it is tested to NSF Standard 42 (Chlorine, Particulates), but the Samsung model is tested and **certified** by NSF for Standard 42 *and* 53 (Cysts, Lead, Asbestos, Benzene, et al.)
Only works for a few weeks at best
Filter only provides adequate filtering for a couple of weeks, then gets progressively worse in the following weeks to the point where the water coming from the filter produces a strong odor that is far worse than whatever you might detect from the tap. Horrible quality, will avoid ALL products under this brand in the future.
Does not replace the real thing
I purchased this item because I read the reviews stating that it is just as good as the OEM DA29-00003G. It left a very bad plastic-chemical aftertaste to the water. I followed the manufacturers directions to the tee. The bad aftertaste remained after several gallons of flushing the filter. I ended up returning them to be replaced by the Samsung OEM filter. I wish I would have had a good experience with this filter because it could have saved me a lot of money.
