Chad A Los Angeles , CA October 17, 2016 Filtered water had low pressure At first I thought it was a bad water filter but as I removing the old one water started shooting out of the filter head. I searched online and found a video on replacing it. I saw how easy it was so i decided to purchase the part. I received it rush order and got it in 2 days. I studied the video instruction and followed it exactly as shown. It took me a total of 1 hour (turning off water and power to fridge, moving the fridge, removing the lines, removing the water filter head, replacing head and filter, run the lines, and turn on the water and power). It should have taken only 30 minutes, but I had some issues removing the 10 year old lines. If I had to do it again, it should taken less than 20.

James M Columbia , MO March 30, 2020 Appliance: KitchenAid Refrigerator KBFS20ECMS00 Noise when getting water, low water flow My fridge had a loud noise when getting water, low water flow. I replaced the water filter head and everything was addressed. It worked perfectly, quick and easy repair. I needed the block-fill foam piece, since the original one broke during the repair. Shipping was fast. The repair video from Appliance Parts Pros helped a lot too. Thanks!

Michael G Indian Land , SC December 06, 2019 Slow water from dispenser Replaced the water filter head. Watched the youtube video made by Appliance Parts Pros. Luckily I bought the two related parts (the styrofoam block fill and the backing plate) because I broke both in removing the old part. All the parts together were about the same cost as a filter so it really paid off Read More... 1 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 15-30 minutes Tools: Adjustable Wrench
