372 owner reviews, fewer than most models here
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 WD-F32 is offered as a 2-pack at $25.99, putting each filter at roughly $13. The certification stack covers NSF 42 for chlorine taste and odor reduction and NSF 372 for lead-free construction materials. Those two certifications are the baseline for Waterdrop's core filter lineup.
Physically the filter measures 3.78 x 1.97 x 7.87 inches, which places it in a medium-length, narrow form factor suited to specific refrigerator cartridge slots. No weight is listed for this model.
With 372 reviews at 4.6 stars, buyer satisfaction is consistently good but the review base is on the smaller side. Buyers who want a 2-pack increment rather than a 3-pack may find this format convenient for a refrigerator that does not go through filters quickly enough to justify stocking three at a time.

Performance notes
The WD-F32 carries NSF 42 certification, designed to reduce aesthetic impurities including chlorine taste, odor, and particulates that affect water appearance. NSF 372 verifies that the filter materials meet lead-free construction standards under U.S. federal and state drinking water rules. The compact 3.78 x 1.97 x 7.87-inch profile suggests it is designed for specific refrigerator mounting formats. No gallon capacity or manufacturer-stated service interval is available in the current data.
What buyers say
With 372 reviews at 4.6 stars, the WD-F32 registers as a reliably satisfying product. The score is slightly below the 4.7 to 4.8 range seen in higher-reviewed Waterdrop models, and the review count is modest. The overall picture is a product with consistent positive feedback from a smaller buyer pool.

Frequently asked questions
Why buy a 2-pack instead of a 3-pack?
A 2-pack can be practical if you replace filters once a year rather than every 6 months, or if you are trying the product for the first time and do not want to commit to a larger stock. It also works for households with lower water usage where the filter may not reach peak capacity within the typical 6-month window. If you replace filters on a regular 6-month schedule, a 3-pack spread over 18 months usually offers a lower per-unit cost.
Does the WD-F32 only cover taste and odor, or does it do more?
Based on the available certification data, the WD-F32 carries NSF 42, which addresses chlorine taste, odor, and aesthetic particulates. It does not list NSF 53 or NSF 401 certifications, so there is no verified claim for reduction of health-effects contaminants like lead, cysts, or pharmaceuticals. If those concerns are relevant to your water supply, a filter with NSF 53 certification would be more appropriate.
What does NSF 372 actually certify?
NSF 372 is a standard for lead-free construction of drinking water system components. It certifies that the materials used to make the filter, including any plastic parts that contact water, comply with lead-free requirements set under the U.S. Reduction of Lead in Drinking Water Act. It does not address what contaminants the filter removes, only that the filter itself does not introduce lead into the water.
