Tools and Hardware Reviews of GE SmartWater Replacement Reverse Osmosis Filters (FX12P)

Customer Review: Very bad filter
Summary: 1 Stars

I have to replace this FX12P filter only after 4 months of use (I bought a new GXRM10G filter set from Home Depot). Suddenly one day the GXRM10G stopped working - no water out of the faucet.

I disassembled it. The post-filter looked OK (still white), but the pre-filter one became black. Worse, the pre-filter then stopped to filter the water well, so as result it damaged the RO membrane, making me to replace all of them.
My water quality is fine - for years we have drunk from the faucet. We use the filter just after having children

That contradicts to what they claim that the pre-filter can last 6 months and the RO membrance can last 3 years.

After relacing first time, 2 days ago, after a month, the filter stopped giving water again. I opened the pre-filter and see that it became black again. I had to buy to replace it again.

Don't buy this. If this hapens again next month, I will trash the whole GXRM10G.

Customer Review: Part of the system
Summary: 5 Stars

These are the two filters which, along with the reverse-osmosis membrane (the real heart of the system) make up the GE reverse-osmosis system. The filters come with detailed written instructions, which is not always the case nowadays, but is always appreciated. Installation will take time and care, and you must have the special wrench and a strong grip to finish the job. I repeat: you must be careful.
I had no trouble, but I have a bit of mechanical ability. I know some people who, frankly, have trouble with changing a light bulb. This replacement might be discouraging if you are in that category. But if you are, take heart! Don't give up on yourself. You can always learn, and practice at simple mechanical things is a valuable learning activity, as good for the brain as an "intellectual" activity -- and so say I.

Customer Review: RO Filters
Summary: 5 Stars

Product was priced very favorably; almost two for the price of one when compared to my local home big box store. Would buy again if price remains that competitive.

Customer Review: GE RO filter
Summary: 4 Stars

Very fast shipping. Great product. However not sure if buying on-line is the cheapest. Do your research and shop around.

Customer Review: Great deal
Summary: 5 Stars

Arrived really fast and was cheaper than the local stores. I will order these again online and from the same seller.
