I have stopped buying from Amazon because I have received a few product which had something off but I could not tell what. For example, we used to buy GE fridge filters from Amazon. Every once in a while we would receive a filter which would change taste of water in weird way. New filters usually make water taste slightly different but it was just a bit more off. But we used to ignore that until we start reading about fake products. So next time when we experienced weird water taste with filter change, I carefully checked our old filter with the new one and sure enough there were subtle differences. Really impossible to notice accidentally. Since then we started buying filters from Home Depot, and we have had pretty consistent experience so far.
