Customer Reviews
After reading the debate here about the original "A" filter and the newer "B" filter, I called LG.They stated there is absolutely no difference in the two filters, as far as performance and filtering capabilities.
This is LG's discontinued 5231JA2006A, NOT the current 5231JA2006B. I replaced my older filter when this arrived from Amazon and it works, but the current version is an improvement over this one. The problem with this filter is the price they are demanding for a discontinued product. I paid way too much for this filter as it is inferior to the current item that is available on the market. Unfortunately, the vendor doesn't make it clear exactly which filter one is purchasing, since the current product's item number appears in parentheses here on Amazon (and, as I recall, on the vendor's website). I recommend finding the current filter and paying the few extra dollars as it is superior to this one.
5231JA2006B (or LG LT600P)is the newer and BETTER replacement filter for 5231JA2006A, and is only about $45. This seller is trying to make a killing selling the "original/old filter" to people who don't know any better. This older filter is only about $35 at most sites that still have it for sale.
This is an original equipment filter from LG who makes the Kenmore refrigerator that it also fits. The only difference between this and the Kenmore filter that came with the Sears Kenmore refrigerator, is that I noticed where Kenmore had placed a stick on label over the LG name name and stock number. When I removed it can you guess what I discovered? Of course you can, the LG name and number. Sears is trying to make an extra $20 on each replacement filter that an uninformed consumer purchases. Congratulations you are now an informed consumer and smarter than they are!!!!
LG5231JA2006A only meets ANSI/NSF Standard 42, but LG5231JA2006B meets 42 & 53. DO NOT BUY LG5231JA2006A thinking you are getting the same filtration as LG5231JA2006B. The description is wrong on this page saying that it removes "96.7% of Mercury, 99.31% of Lead, 95.9% of Atrazine, 96.3% of Benzene, 93.06% of 2,4-D, 99.09% of Lindane, 99.99% of Cysts, 99.3% of Turbidity, 99.9% of Particulates (Class I), 97.6% of Chlorine Taste & Odor". It only removes "93.2% of Particulates (Class I), 97.4% of Chlorine Taste & Odor".
A direct quote from where I normally buy our household filters:??The factory original LG LT600P (5231JA2006B) Filter is used in refrigerators by LG, Kenmore and others. The LT600P filter creates better tasting water for drinking and making beverages as well as clean, clearer, healthy ice. The 5231JA2006B is interchangeable with the 5231JA2006A filter - but it is certified to remove cysts and other impurities that the "A" filter is not rated to remove.
This filter is fine and fits into the fridge like it should, there is nothing really to comment here except that I feel like I am being ripped off when I buy a fridge filter.
I researched these filers over a year ago when I was hunting for the cheapest place to purchase a replacement. The "A" model is not discontinued, it just doesn't filter out as much as the "B" model does. So if you are looking for a filter that meets ANSI 42 standards this will do just fine. If you want a better filter that meets ANSI 42 and 53, then go with the more expensive B model. It really depends on the water you are filtering as everyones water from the tap will be different. I have purchased both filters from discountfilterstore.com with excellent service and their website provides the breakdown of particulates filtered for each model. Don't take everyone lines of something being discontinued. They wouldn't still be selling them years later if they were discontinued.
Ordered this after reading the manufacturer states it fits all kenmore 795 ... its too long.... wrong filter. wil be returning.
this filter is a great item with very simple installation. Somewhat costly but overall gets 5 stars for effectiveness and easy installation.
