Overview
EXCELPURE's RWF0100A ships as a 3-pack activated carbon water filter, built to replace LG's LT500P and 5231JA2002A cartridges plus the matching Kenmore 9890 and RWF0100A part numbers. It suits owners who want NSF-certified filtration at a lower cost per cartridge than the OEM part.
This is a third-party replacement, not an LG-branded filter, so the compatible-models list matters more than the marketing copy around it. The coconut shell carbon block and 0.5 micron rating target chlorine, taste and odor rather than bacteria or heavy metals beyond what NSF 42/372 cover. Buying three at once only pays off if the fridge actually needs a filter change roughly every six months.
- 0.5 micron coconut shell carbon block
- NSF/ANSI 42 and 372 certified
- Rated for about 300 gallons per filter
- Fits LG LT500P and Kenmore 9890 series
Who it's for
Fits LG French door and side-by-side owners running an LT500P-series filter, and Kenmore models built on the same LG platform (469890 and related numbers). Not for anyone whose fridge takes a different cartridge shape; check the exact model number on the old filter before ordering.
What buyers say
From Amazon customer reviews.
Reviewers consistently describe it as a drop-in match for the OEM LG and Kenmore filters, with no metallic taste after the initial flush and no leaking at the housing. Several call out the price advantage over buying single filters at a hardware store, and multiple buyers note the three-pack works out cheaper per unit than one-off purchases.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Drop-in match for LT500P and Kenmore 9890 housings
- NSF 42/372 certified for chlorine, taste and lead
- Three-pack covers about 18 months of use
- Only fits the specific LG/Kenmore models listed
- No filtration beyond NSF 42/372 scope
Performance notes
The filter uses a coconut shell carbon block rated for 0.5 micron filtration, fine enough to catch sediment and reduce chlorine taste without materially restricting flow. NSF/ANSI 42 certification covers the chlorine, taste and odor reduction claim, and NSF/ANSI/CAN 372 confirms the materials are lead free. Each cartridge is rated for roughly 300 gallons, which most households will reach in about six months.
