by Samsung

Product Description

From the Manufacturer

Use this replacement filter with your Samsung refrigerator to provide clean, fresh-tasting water and ice from your side-by-side or French door refrigerator. For best results, replace your Samsung filter every six months. This refrigerator water filter is used in select Samsung French door and side-by-side refrigerators with filter access inside the refrigerator. While retaining beneficial fluoride, this NSF-certified refrigerator water filter reduces cysts, chlorine taste and odor, particulates (Class I), lead, and mercury. Samsung water filters are tested and certified by NSF International, a not-for-profit, non-governmental organization dedicated to public health, safety, and environmental protection. Samsung water filters use only a high-grade carbon block, which removes more than 99 percent of the potentially harmful contaminants that may be present in your water, including: • Chlorine Taste & Odor: Chlorine is used widely to treat water but may add a particular taste and odor to the water • Heavy Metals & Chemicals: Lead, asbestos, benzene, mercury and carbofuran; these common industrial contaminants with high toxicities can infiltrate the water source and be potentially harmful to your health • Microbial Cysts: Parasites such as cryptosporidium are commonly found in lakes and rivers. They have a high resistance over disinfectants such as chlorine and thus may be present even in treated water

This review is from: Samsung DA29-00003G Aqua-Pure Plus Refrigerator Water Filter, 1-Pack (Tools & Home Improvement)

If you own a Samsung Fridge and are purchasing this product, you already know how your filtered water and ice taste.

I was not really happy with the price of this filter, but after wasting a lot of time on-line looking around for the part at a cheaper price, I came back to Amazon. Beware that other cheaper parts online are not always Samsung origional equipment manufacturer. (OEM)

I don't have personal experiece with these particular non OEM part, but experience with other non OEM have not always been pleasant.

This is the origional OEM part with a sticker sheet included to track the next time you'll need to replace the filter.

I have purchased parts from other online retailers typically with no problems. On the few occasions that I have had a problem you are pretty much on your own. Buying through Amazon is worth the literal few pennies you might save purchasing from other retailers.

4 stars becaue I feel the product is too expensive for what it is.

Update 2-20010
The ($40 plus shipping) price of these filters has become absurd. Amazon still offers a competitive price, the best you'll find on the internet for the OEM part. I installed a reverse osmosis water filter under my sink and put a T connection in to run filtered water to my fridge. The RO system delivers far better water quality than the Samsung filter. I removed the filter from my fridge. My RO system uses 5 filters in a year. These 5 filters cost a little more than one Samsung filter.

I purchased two of these filters as replacements for my Samsung fridge. The part number shipped was the DA29-00003B, which I think is also compatible with the DA29-00003A as well. It worked flawlessly in my fridge (Model RS2556SH). I recieved my order in the mail 3 days after purchase (regular USPS delivery)!

They are brand new genuine Samsung filters, which is a great deal for the price. The local Best Buy was charging $45+tax, so this is a good bargain.

2.0 out of 5 stars wrong product, bad experience, June 5, 2005

This is not the DA29-00003A, it is the DA29-00003B. The 3A is 500gal capacity and the 3B is 300gal. I brought this up to FiltersFast, where the product came from, and they said I could return it but would have to call me back with the shipping label info. They never called. Will never deal with them again. I installed the filter, since I'm stuck with it, and it does work fine in my Samsung fridge.
