That's completely incorrect. They absolutely are. There's a little something in US Federal law called the Warranties Act (MagnusonβMoss Warranty Act, 1975), which, if I recall, is a re-affirmation and improvement on legislation for the mid-30s, but I defer to the experts. A company can't void a warranty because you use an equivalent replacement part. The company would have to show that that alternate part was responsible for the failure. That's not to say anyone wants the hassle of arguing with Samsung or anyone else over the issue, or dragging them to court, but lots of US companies like to take an aggressive position, which I'd characterize as a scare tactic, often stating positions contrary to US law, which they know full well (we're not talking new or esoteric legislation here....). This manufacturer/vendor position is right up there with the "warranty void if removed" sticker (it's not....).
Actually, the Warranties Act DOES have a provision for Samsung, or any manufacturer, to require that you use their exclusive replacement part.....as long as they give it to you for free.
You let me know when Samsung starts giving away those filters for free, and I'll sign right up to use them exclusively.
Totally agree with you on the filter quality though - lots of 3rd party filters, from personal and anecdotal experience, aren't of the highest, or comparable, quality, and the fridge water pump systems and seals don't seem to do particularly well with filters which don't have good flow, causing back-pressure, or good seals, causing leaks, etc. I'm rocking Samsung filters in my unit now, as I got a slick deal on a 4-pack, but I've found some high quality alternatives I'll consider buying again when those run out.

The reason for the water filter warranty being 'void', and I use the term loosely because if you call back with a Samsung filter in place or no filter, they will continue with the repair under warranty. Understand that the specifications of the off brand 3rd party filters in place in the unit can cause problems or create issues that will not be warrantied. Its like taking your new chevy truck in for warranty work and they find out you've been using the lowest grade Kirkland brand oil and filter in it causing the lifter to collapse.
