We don't have a fridge thread right?
My mom bought 2 filters for her GE fridge. I installed one for her and after a bit of debugging, I'm pretty sure these filters are scams. I looked "inside" both of them and neither has an RFID chip. The fridge can't sense the filter has been installed so it can't run water.
I forced water through anyway and the water was crystal clear. Real filters produce dark and mucky water when you first run them. So does this random website just take old filters and resell them as new? What the heck is up?
