My (limited) experience has been that most of these systems use the same "standard" sized 1.75" x 11.75" cartridge. I doubt you'll have any trouble finding replacements even for "off" brands. Ask the vendor what size cartridge it uses to be sure.

I'm using a 10GPD unit I bought from Caswell several years ago, but it's been upgraded with a 120GPD GE cartridge.
If you change the GPD rating you will also have to change the flow restrictor which is cheap and easy to do.
