Crystal Quest Shower Filter with Head, Shower Head Filter for Hard Water, Shower Water Filter Removes Chlorine, chloramines & VOCs, Filter Shower Head, Improves Skin & Hair, Long-Lasting - Black

This is a real filter not some cheap fake filter it's wonderful what it's done for my hair and my skin already not only does it filter out all my bad water but it soften it as well! If you have hard water or trying to filter out all the crap or both then this is the filter you need thank you crystal quest!!!

If you're looking for a way to get a home water softner or just want a softer water this is the product for you.You do need to change the filter EVERY year not a option.That filter is only good for a year if you don't switch out the water will start to smell funny.Its not like having to add salt to those expensive tanks outside the house.You simply screw this whole unit on your existing shower pipe and run through to get the charcoal activated then it ready to use.The first day my kids stayed in the shower a hour a piece said the water was velet smooth.They didn't come out until they looked like a wrinkled prune fingers and toes they loved it.So I brought 2 more and now all my bathroom showers have one we love it.

Fits well and appears to work well.

I was skeptical about a shower filter, but the water here is horrible--making you feel coated in something. Ick. So, I looked into these shower filters, researched them, and this one was both budget-conscious and well reviewed. Here's what I think of it: PRO: 1, compact (not as small as others, though), 2, nice design, 3, easy to install--even came with the teflon tape. CON: 1, leaks at center seam (no biggie, it just drips in the shower), 2, lowers the shower head a good 5", so if you have a low shower to begin with, you will only get the middle of your back wet. You have to add one of those articulated extender arms to get the shower head above your head, 3, spits out carbon grains...when the shower is done and the pipe in the wall is draining back through the tub, you are left with carbon grains in the tub. They wash down, but that is telling me that the filter 'housing fabric' is breaking down--and it happened within the first week of use. I will admit, I have not "flipped" the filter as recommended by the manufacturer, as I am afraid it will add even more carbon bits to my pipes, potentially clogging them. All in all, it does work--and even "unflipped", it still works. It makes the water better, softer, cleaner and we are not left with some weird mineral film on us afterwards. I think it is a good product. July, 2012: After a year's use of this filter, it did fine--I never flipped the filter cartridge as recommended--for one reason, getting the thing apart (the housing unscrews in the middle) was like an act of god--and if it was that hard to unscrew, why did it drip at this seam? Weird. So, since I wasn't going to be re-installing it (as it would lower the shower head too much in a new place), I decided to wrestle with the thing and see it's inner workings. I found the reason I had the bits of carbon left over in the tub: the plastic mesh at the ends of the filter (a hefty little thing) had been torn apart by the water pressure. And I mean torn apart. Disintegrated. There was about 1/2 of the carbon still within the filter canister. Since I have no way of turning down the water pressure within the walls of the apartment building I live in, it was an interesting find and solved the mystery of the bits in the tub. I'd use this filter again in the right setting, but, unfortunately, I had to find a different filter for the shower--one that didn't lower the shower head as much.

It is a great showerhead, attractive in chrome and I find the filter to be helpful in removing harsh chemicals from water. I have less soap scum build up on my glass shower doors and a little soap goes a long way. I have not tested how well it dechlorinates but I feel it helps and I am going to purchase another one for my second shower. I like the fact the filter only needs to be changed once a year. Easy to install and the water pressure is very good, it can be adjusted .

DO NOT order the white shower head. TOTAL waste of money! I ordered two of these products, one white and one chrome. The white one is very poorly manufactured and cracked at that seam within a month of normal use. Unfortunately I was not able to return it within the 30 days of the supplier's return policy. The chrome has worked just fine.

this product works as expected. immediately after installing i noticed that my skin wasn't as dry and my hair were in a better shape after the shower. my roommate had the same experience with it, so its actually not just a psychological feeling :) it was easy enough to install and got doesnt restrict the water flow much so its still the same pressure out of the shower head. A good product at the end of the day, i would definitely recommend it.

I bought this product for the health of my skin and hair, and on those terms it has worked excellently. It filters the water, and I have noticed an increase in luster of my hair and skin. My only complaint is this: although it provides great, strong water pressure, it kinda hurts lol. I suppose I have gotten used to it, but the next time I purchase a shower filter, I will spend the extra money for a nice, soft, massaging one. This is really a good product for your hair and skin, but only if you can handle the slight sting of the water flow.

I was really looking forward to using this. Unfortunately, the unit leaks even after sealing it, it continues to leak. I had heard great things about this. Wish this wasn't the case.
