Overview
A 3-pack of aftermarket refrigerator water filters built to replace Samsung's DA29-00020B and the matching HAF-CIN/EXP cartridge, fitting a wide range of Samsung French door and side-by-side models along with select Kenmore units.
This is a compatibility part, so the real question is whether it matches your specific fridge model rather than any single spec. Maxblue lists direct fits including RF28HMEDBSR/AA, RF28K9380SR, RF263BEAESR/AA, RF28JBEDBSG, RF4287HARS, and RF28HFEDTSR, plus the DA97-08006A cartridge number and Kenmore 46-9101 as cross-references.
- 3-pack replacement for DA29-00020B
- NSF 42 / 372 certified
- Coconut shell carbon block
- Tool-free install, 6 mo / 300 gal life
Who it's for
Right for Samsung fridge owners whose model number matches the compatibility list and who want a cheaper alternative to the OEM cartridge. Not for owners of fridges outside the listed Samsung and Kenmore model numbers, since fit is model-specific.
What buyers say
From Amazon customer reviews.
Owners who switched from the Samsung OEM cartridge say the fit is exact and installation goes smoothly with no leaks, several specifically comparing it favorably on both taste and price. One reviewer who'd had a bad experience with a different off-brand filter says this one changed their mind about aftermarket cartridges.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Only fits the specific Samsung and Kenmore models listed
- Fit still depends on matching the exact model number by hand
