Arrived early. Just what I needed

Perfect as expected

good direct replacement, no issues, made well, fit well, good price

Looks just like the OEM

The replacement corrected the leaking strainer. We placed silicone sealant on the o ring as an extra measure of protection.

I have a Samsung wf42h5200af/a2 washer and it works perfectly! I colored the arrow blue with a marker so it was simpler for my to see. No issues installing it, and no errors from my washer.

Purchased this replacement filter as the original one was not in great shape (machine was a Craigslist buy). Unfortunately the filter I received had a defective o-ring, it was not perfectly round, it looked kind of like a pancake edge on one side. The old filter's o-ring was still good so I just carefully pulled it off the old filter and put it on this new filter, as I unfortunately missed the return/exchange window by the time I got around to fixing this. Anyway, the old o-ring worked fine and no leaks. The filter fit is a bit finicky though - this is for the person who asked how to install it without leaking. You have to line up the arrows EXACTLY (the housing arrow is really hard to see, I colored mine with a sharpie, see 1st picture). Once the arrows are lined up perfectly, screw in the filter 1 or 2 full turns (I don't recall which), until you cannot see the housing arrow, and the filter handle is straight up (2nd picture). Then, mine needed a gentle twist just a tiny bit more to the right and I heard and felt a slight "click", presumably the o-ring seating into the housing for a good seal). In my opinion this item is offered at a fantastic price (the OEM filter was around $30 or $40 from the places I looked), and high quality. Would have given a 5 star rating except for the bum o-ring issue I had. I'm sure Amazon would have made it right had I not missed the exchange window but since my old o-ring worked it's no big deal. But I have to say, check the o-ring and if it's not EXACTLY like the OEM one you are replacing, consider the extra money on the OEM replacement, or just re-use the old o-ring like I did, otherwise you could end up with leaks. Hope this helps!!

Putting the new filter in was so easy!! It's getting down on the floor to put it in that's hard. Oh and getting up is even harder.
