Staff Rating The FridgeFilters.com Staff Rating is based on an in-depth analysis of the filter materials, construction, packaging, specifications, and certification.

Generally speaking, a filter with more stars is NSF certified, is made of high-grade plastic with tight seams, and has no sharp edges. The filter label and box are well designed, and include color photos to aid in installation. Once installed, the filter produces better tasting, healthier water.

Factors include:
  • Flow rate, capacity (filter life), micron rating, etc.
  • Filtering material - carbon block, granular carbon, pleated paper, etc.
  • The type of contaminants removed by the filter - Chlorine, Lead, Cysts, etc.
  • The number of different contaminants removed
  • The percentage reduction of each contaminant
  • Materials used to make the housing
  • Tightness of seams, quality of o-rings, etc.
  • Certification by an independent agency - ANSI, NSF, WQA, etc.
  • Length of manufacturers warranty, Good Housekeeping seal of approval, etc.
  • Detailed installation instructions on the filter label, box, or both
  • Country of manufacture - USA, Mexico, Taiwan, China, etc.

 (more info) The Aqua-Fresh filter removes quite a few impurities, but we lowered its rating because it's not certified, some of the edges look a little jagged, and the plastic has a "recycled feel" to it. There's also a slight gap between the two halves of the filter.

If those details don't bother you, it's hard to find a better bargain.

 (more info) The 8171413 should fit perfectly since Whirlpool Engineers designed both the filter system and the filter cartridge - there's no guesswork here. The filter only removes Chlorine and Particulates, so it's not the best choice if you're worried about lead or industrial chemicals.

Great way to save a few bucks and still get the Whirlpool name.

 (more info) Like the 8171413, the 8171414 should be a perfect fit for your fridge. The filter removes more impurities than the 8171413 - including Lead and Cysts.

A great, no-compromise, genuine Whirlpool filter.
