GLACIER FRESHXWF Replacement For GE XWF Refrigerator Water Filter Pack of 2 (Not XWFE)

I know it's not advertised to be used as a substitute for the XWFE filters but I saw a youtube video where you peel the RFID sticker off of the original XWFE filter and tape it to the area that detects it. It works great and saves so much money!Will continue to buy these moving forward.

Was super nervous these would not work based on reviews putting them in a GE fridge.Worked like a charm! Installing couldn't have been easier, great taste and love that the package comes with "replace month" stickers so you can give yourself an easy reminder.Major sticker sock when I say the GE replacement price PER FILTER and greatly appreciate this value pack!!

This is my 3rd pack of filters from Glacier Fresh. Work great, and less expensive (by far) from factory filters. They get me by for a year at a time, more or less.

I used aftermarket filters before. Depends on your model, aftermarket filters may or may not fit. There is no way to tell if it fits or not even it has similar part numbers. But I found aftermarket filters is slightly bigger than original so the filter housing will not close correctly makes the refrigerator water dispenser not working.

The price is nice but these will not work on most GE refrigerators. They will click in perfectly but you will get an error on your water dispenser. You cannot dispense water with them or make ice. I thought I had bigger issues until I called GE. They informed me off brand filters will not work. I ordered a GE one and what do you know! My fridge is working again. Unfortunately you will have to bite the bullet and pay $50+ for 1 GE filter. I’m leaving 5 stars because it delivered quickly and they took my return with no hassle.

**I need to add this, I see now in the additional info under the description of these there is the statement "These are not a replacement for the GE XWFE cartridges", that was not there when I bought these in September and these were a suggested alternative. Based on several other 1* reviews, it seems I wasn't the only one to make this mistake as they were supposed to be a suitable alternative for the XWFE. I see they are now specifically excluded, which is due to others finding this out and returning them**We bought a new GE refrigerator last year and replaced our 22+ year old one (which was still working fine). Reading through instructions, I found the directions to replace the water filter every 6 months or so. I immediately searched for the specific filters (XWFE) and found it here, along with these Glacier Fresh filters. They were much cheaper (3 for 30, vs. 1 for 50) so I bought a GE filter and the three pack to compare.Last night out filter light came on and pulled one of the new Glacier Fresh filters and attempted to replace the existing one. They DO NOT FIT. When comparing the sizes, they are very close, the connections are different. The GE filter (on the right in the photo) compared to the Glacier are not compatible. I was able to seat it into the filter connection, but because of the lack of proper holes in the Glacier Fresh filter, the fridge would not recognize it and it would not reset the filter. This locked up my water button, I double checked it was seated (as best as it could be) and then removed it. I put in the new GE filter (XWFE) and it seated perfectly, and reset the filter mechanism. Because I bought these 5 months ago, I cannot return them and they were a complete waste of money.I will purchase ONLY the GE XWFE filters and ensure I have a couple stored for when the new one reaches its end.While I was careful comparing these, I found the statement "These are a direct replacement for XWFE filters", they are not. Just make sure you double check before you invest and open the package to see if a new off-brand filter is really a direct replacement option.Also, you should also read your owner's manual carefully, many models are eligible to receive a bypass plug, free from GE. I also found this out when reordering new filters direct from GE and seeing the bypass plug, (which allows you to use the water/ice maker without any filter) and it's listed for 27.00, but the comments/reviews mention numerous times this is a free product (per the owner's manual). I double checked and sure enough it is for mine as well. I called and requested it, (having registered the warranty when we bought it) and they said "no problem, it's on the way". Why it isn't included with the fridge is simple, so we'll spend the money on filters and hope you don't notice the bypass option.

These fit into the refrigerator without any issues. The water tastes fine and the filter seems to be doing its job.

I read the reviews that said this wouldn’t work with my GE fridge with trepidation, because GE suggests the $55 “E” style filter for my fridge.My GFE26JSMAFSS GE fridge purchased from Home Depot works fine with these. I even peeled the sticker off the old filter looking for an RFID, and did not find one, leading me to believe GE is ripping some of us off.Water ran grey briefly, then a little cloudy for the first half gallon, like every other filter, and is fine now.Can’t beat the price compared to GE. I’m happy, will update if we have any future issues.
