• 2026-11-06 — GE XWFE: withdrawn P473 citation corrected (correction) : This page cited NSF Protocol P473 as one of the XWFE's certifications, following GE's performance data sheet. NSF has withdrawn P473: its PFOA/PFOS claims were folded into NSF/ANSI 53 in 2022. The page now carries the PFOA/PFOS claim under NSF/ANSI 53, in its current form, and no longer cites P473 as a current certification. page
• 2026-11-06 — Samsung HAF-QIN: NSF/ANSI 53 claim upgraded to listing-backed (correction) : This page said the HAF-QIN's health-effects (NSF/ANSI 53) certification was stated by Samsung, with no certifier listing linked. The live NSF/ANSI 53 listing checked 2026-11-06 names HAF-QIN/EXP under Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., system DA97-08006C, replacement element DA97-17376B, with the health-effects claims. The page now links the certifier's live listing for both standards. page
• 2026-11-06 — EveryDrop Filter 4 (EDR4RXD1): NSF/ANSI 53 and 401 claims downgraded to the reproduction (correction) : This page presented all three certifications as found in the certifier's live listing. Checked 2026-11-06, the live listing names EDR4RXD1 only under NSF/ANSI 42 (systems W11256135 / W11311161); the live NSF/ANSI 53 and 401 listings do not name this cartridge or its elements. The 53 and 401 claims now rest on the 2026-09-30 reproduction of NSF directory entries and are labeled as such. page
• 2026-11-06 — Mist EDR1RXD1 equivalent: certification link pointed at the listing itself (correction) : The certification link pointed at the certifier's generic search page. It now points at the NSF/ANSI 42 DWTU listing itself, where the Mist Filters holder block appears (checked 2026-11-06); the holder's models are listed there under their CWMF codes. page
• 2026-11-06 — Mist EDR1RXD1 equivalent: certification answer named the wrong cartridge (correction) : This page's certification answer said the genuine EDR1RXD1 is named in the certifier's live NSF/ANSI 42 listing. That was wrong: the listing names this Mist cartridge (the Mist Filters holder block, under its CWMF model codes); the sentence was built by a template that used the genuine cartridge's part number as the subject on every page, including third-party ones. The template now names the cartridge each page is actually about, and this page's machine-readable data now gives the cartridge's brand as Mist, not Whirlpool / EveryDrop. Found on an independent review of the page, 2026-11-06. page
• 2026-11-06 — Mist EDR1RXD1 equivalent: NSF/ANSI 42 certification reclassified — manufacturer statement, not a live listing (correction) : This page presented the cartridge's NSF/ANSI 42 certification as found in the certifier's live listing, because the NSF listing carries a Mist Filters holder block. Read in full on 2026-11-06, that block does not name this cartridge: Mist's own product page identifies the model as CWMF001, and CWMF001 does not appear anywhere in the NSF/ANSI 42 listing — the block names other CWMF model codes. The certification is now carried as what the evidence supports: the manufacturer's own statement, with the listing linked so readers can check it themselves. The verdict text, which also called this third-party cartridge 'genuine' and said it is checkable in the listing under its own code, has been rewritten to match. page
• 2026-11-06 — Mist EDR1RXD1 equivalent: unsupported cost comparison removed (correction) : The verdict said this cartridge 'costs more per gallon than uncertified clones.' This site holds no price data for any such clones, so the comparison was unsupported and has been removed. The manufacturer's own dated price for this cartridge ($19.99, checked 2026-11-06) is now shown on the page. page
• 2026-11-06 — Samsung HAF-QIN: flow comparison qualified (correction) : The verdict called the HAF-QIN's 0.4 gpm 'the slowest rated flow of the four seed cartridges.' Only three of the four publish a flow figure — EveryDrop publishes none — so the comparison overstated its own basis. It now reads: the slowest rated flow among the seed cartridges that publish a flow figure (the GE and LG cartridges are rated 0.5 gpm). page
• 2026-11-06 — Samsung HAF-QIN: third-party substitute wording corrected (correction) : The verdict said 'we found no certified third-party substitute,' which implied substitutes had been searched and checked. None has been checked yet — they are queued. The verdict now says so. page
• 2026-11-06 — GE XWFE: PFOA/PFOS claim status clarified (correction) : The XWFE's PFOA/PFOS claim, originally cited by GE under the withdrawn NSF Protocol P473, is carried on this page under NSF/ANSI 53, where those claims now live. The page now states explicitly that the claim is GE's manufacturer claim, carried in its current standards home — not a claim this page treats as certified. page
• 2026-11-06 — EveryDrop EDR4RXD1: listing terminology and dates unified (correction) : This page called W11256135 and W11311161 'replacement elements' in one place and 'systems' in another. The certifier's listing carries them as the systems under which EDR4RXD1 is named; the page now uses 'systems' throughout, and the live-listing source is dated to its latest check, 2026-11-06. page
• 2026-11-05 — LG LT1000P: capacity comparison removed (correction) : The verdict said this cartridge's 200-gallon capacity was the joint-lowest of the four cartridges checked at launch. That was wrong: the GE XWFE is rated at 170 gallons. The comparison has been removed; the verdict now states the capacity, and the 2.5-gallon flush a new cartridge needs before first use, on their own. page
• 2026-11-05 — EveryDrop Filter 4 (EDR4RXD1): listing status corrected (correction) : This page said the live NSF International listing did not name the cartridge. That was wrong: the live listing names EDR4RXD1 under Whirlpool's replacement elements W11256135 and W11311161. The page now links the certifier's live listing directly. The mistake came from searching the listing by trade name instead of by the system and element codes. page
