12/20/18 Update:
So, I just changed this filter which was installed on 09/6/18. It lasted about 3.5 mths before the water started tasting really nasty. So, it did fair at best. Given the cheap price, I'd say you could probably come out ahead, but then - I'm not really able to find them nearly as cheap as what I bought this for. $8+ is about what I'm seeing now. Either way, it's still probably cheaper than an OEM filter, but the filtering quality isn't nearly as good as an OEM filter either.
This video will show how to install an in-line water filter on your GE side by side refrigerator. This will eliminate the need to buy MWF or MWFP filter which are very expensive. Instead of using the $30+ filters you'll be able to use $5+/- filters instead!

Said to be a 5 year water filter. If true, not a bad value actually.)
