The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less. The bars below show where this model stands against the other water filtration: replacement filters, under-sink and reverse osmosis systems, filter pitchers, water dispensers, coolers, faucet filters and softeners we track in this category on price, popularity and size. Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
The WDP-F14 comes as a 2-pack at $27.89, putting each filter at around $14. It holds NSF 42, 53, 401, and 372 certifications, a scope that puts it above the baseline taste-and-odor category. NSF 53 covers health-effects contaminants, NSF 401 addresses emerging compounds, and NSF 372 confirms lead-free construction. The listed material is food-grade, which aligns with the NSF 372 compliance.
Physically, the filter is 5.51 x 6.3 x 3.15 inches and weighs 1.3 pounds for the unit. The form factor suggests a different cartridge orientation than the tall narrow WDP-F03, pointing to compatibility with a different set of refrigerator models.
With 817 reviews at 4.7 stars, buyer response is solidly positive. The review count is moderate but meaningful, and the 4.7 rating puts it in line with well-regarded alternatives in the Waterdrop range.

Frequently asked questions
How does the WDP-F14 compare to the WDP-F03 in terms of certifications?
Both the WDP-F14 and WDP-F03 carry the same four NSF certifications: NSF 42, 53, 401, and 372. The primary practical differences are the form factor and pack count. The WDP-F03 is a single filter at 2.36 x 2.36 x 12.6 inches. The WDP-F14 is a 2-pack at 5.51 x 6.3 x 3.15 inches per unit. Each is designed for different refrigerator cartridge configurations, so compatibility with your specific refrigerator model is the main deciding factor.
What does food-grade material mean for a water filter?
Food-grade materials are substances approved for contact with food or drinking water without contributing harmful compounds. For a water filter, this means the plastics, seals, and other components that come in contact with water have been formulated to avoid leaching chemicals into the water stream. Combined with NSF 372 certification, which verifies lead-free construction, the food-grade material claim adds a layer of transparency about component safety beyond just what the filter removes from incoming water.
Is a 2-pack better than a 3-pack for most households?
It depends on how often you replace filters. If your refrigerator manufacturer recommends 6-month replacement intervals, a 3-pack covers 18 months per purchase while a 2-pack covers 12 months. A 2-pack can make sense if you want to avoid stockpiling, if you are uncertain about long-term compatibility, or if the 3-pack equivalent is not available in the WDP-F14 line. On a pure cost-per-filter basis, 3-packs generally offer a better rate than 2-packs at similar retail prices.
