New design no longer fits
on September 8, 2019
Posted by: MRBw2B
as a number of people have noted, these filters no longer fit. it seems samsung is unwilling to remedy the problem, so now we are stuck with a refrigerator that does not have a water filter.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Filter no longer fits
on February 17, 2022
Posted by: Semper Fi
greetings. i feel the pain here. here’s my caveman fix, less samsung recommendations:
install the filter up to the point it refuses to lock-in. apply some pressure. pull the filter out. look at the impressions on the filter teeth (see pic from another caveman).
shave off material below the first tooth impression attempting to keep the same design shape.
then basically remove the aft or the third tooth above the base (see pic). you can use a regular file that you would find in your toolbox. a course file to start, then a fine one to smooth out, or as i use, a dremel tool to file it down (be careful with a powered dremel as it can take a lot off fast).
keep at it until it fits. always works for me. only use filters with nsf 42, 53, 401 protections. hope this helped.

Doesn't Fit; I'm never Buying Samsung Again
on July 29, 2021
Posted by: AngryMan58
they changed the design on purpose to try and force people to replace their equipment. they could have easily created a new part number for their new equipment, but they purposely changed the design of the same part number... and then they have the audacity to say we are valued customers. off to the knock-off brands for me.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
