Koolatron BC-130SS Kool 130-Quart-Capacity Compact Fridge, Silver

Koolatron BC-130SS Kool 130-Quart-Capacity Compact Fridge, Silver
  • 130-quart-capacity refrigerator/freezer for an office or dorm room
  • Flat-back design; 2 full-width slide-out wire shelves; door storage
  • High-quality compressor; adjustable thermostat from 28 to 50 degrees F
  • Reversible door with magnetic seal and recessed handle; leveling legs
  • Measures 21 by 22 by 33-1/2 inches; 90-day limited warranty

The fridge is rather large for a dorm room, but works perfectly once shared between two people. The freezer compartment is pretty big, but I personally have problems with keeping it properly shut. Also, the bottom of the freezer compartment collects water and the fridge inside keeps getting messy..

But overall I'm quite happy with it!

Water Sentinel WSW-1 Refrigerator Replacement Filter

Water Sentinel WSW-1 Refrigerator Replacement Filter
  • Economical alternative to expensive substitutes
  • Delivers clean, clear water that looks and tastes great
  • Will remove or reduce chlorine, tastes and odors that may be present in your drinking water
  • Does not remove minerals which may be beneficial to health
  • Designed to provide up to six months of life or 300 gallon

On this site it says they are tested for ANSI/NSF 42 AND 53, however, when I received the filters, the box only claims tested for standard 42. This is important because standard 53 is for the reduction of Lead, Mercury, Benzene, p-Dichlorobenzene,Toxaphene and Carbofuran. You might not have these elements in your water, but you should know what you're paying for!

I sent the following message to Water Sentinel on 11/30/10 and have not received a response as of 12/16/10. Will sell my "inventory" at a steep discount! :)

The other afternoon the water filter in my KitchenAid refrigerator blew up for no apparent reason. See attached photo. Fortunately I was nearby and able to shut off the water quickly and avoid any major damage, but if I was at work and it pumped water into my house for even a few hours, or traveling for two weeks at a time it could have easily done tens of thousands of damage to my home. I now have four filters left from a six-pack that was purchased recently. Are these filters any good, or should they be tossed and replaced with something of better quality? What suggestions do you have for avoiding this problem in the future, or do we have to shut off the water every time we leave the house?

I have a WSW-1 and the end blew off and started shooting water out the front of the refrigerator and all over the floor.Fortunately we were in the next room when it happened.If we had been away it could have caused thousands of dollars of water damage.In the future I will spend a little more money and get the Kenmore brand filters.

I have used this exact filter for several years in our kenmore frig. easy to change and has never exploded or leaked for me. After reading other reviews, I was worried about others having leakage problems, but I still continue to buy and use them, with no issues.

Also, I agree with the review back in 2010, which said that this is a "taste-removing ONLY" filter (NSF 42 tested). Even though the Amazon ad continues to state that this filter is BOTH NSF 42 and 53 tested... my latest order in March 2012 showed only NSF#42 on the box.

This filter is not a direct replacement for the Whirlpool filter.It is not NSF rated, and has only one filtration element, not the three in the factory filter.They should have made this clear that it was not a replacement, but a less-effective substitute. Perhaps I should have realized this given the price was much less than a true replacement.

Frigidaire WF1CB Replacement Filter, 1 Pack

Frigidaire WF1CB Replacement Filter, 1 Pack
  • Particulates (class III) by more than 98%
  • Works on rear-filter models that meet 2001 energy guidelines
  • Chlorine (class I) by more than 96%

The Ice and Water Filter for our Frigidaire fridge lasted only 5 months for us, when our water from the fridge started tasting weird (chlorine-tasting). Replacing the used filter was also a snap, no tools required.

WF1CB is supposed to replace RG-100, which fits all PureSource equipped refrigerators produced after April 2001. It has a rated capacity of 6-9 months, or 400 gallons, whichever comes first.

Fits most fridge models, such as:

FRS23R3A

FRS23R4A

FRS23KR4A

FRS26R2A

FRS26R3A

FRS26R4A

Buy Frigidaire WF1CB Replacement Filter, 1 Pack Now



when you order these filters picture shows frigidaire filter with box. when you receive them your in for a surprise. they are not frigidaire and they are not in a box. they are wrapped individually in bubble wrap.not a single marking on filter as to manufacturer or filter size. absolutely no installation instructions at all. they will not tell you the manufacturer except that it is a reputable manufacturer. they do offer a ups return label if you are not satisfied, except i am sure you forfeit your original postage of $7 dollars plus, so they expect me to return these and lose the postage? for about $5.00 more or $59.95 i found the original fridgidaire filters in a box,and that includes postage on ebay.i will eat these phony frigidaire filters but i also think they should stop advertising them as fridgedaire filters in original box.

The description of this product is false.It is not a Frigidaire filter.Best price I've found for the real thing is at Appliance Zone $15 gets you the real PureSource filter!

Not a Frigidaire Filter, bought 2 filters but could have bought 3 of same from other seller. Amazon should remove item. Didn't read reviews, did not think I needed to for such a simple item.

Instead, they sent me a different filter that fits. It came in a different box. The picture they have on is wrong.
