WaterChef Premium Shower Filter System SF-7C (Brushed Nickel) - Deluxe Adjustable Wand, Advanced Filtration for Superior Chlorine Reduction - NSF/ANSI Certified: 96.6% of Chlorine, 10,000 Gal., USA

i've tried many shower filters with hand-held wands, and this is by far the very best system i've ever used. we had been using another filter system for many years, and found it continually clogged, eventually reducing the water flow to a trickle. i was motivated to try this system, and i am absolutely delighted with its performance so far. there's no chlorine smell or feel to the water, and i've found the different options with the shower head to be great. the water flow, after about a month, is terrific, with the understanding that all water filtering systems reduce flow somewhat--if you're looking for a shower blast, you won't get it from a system with a filter. i will say this is the best system i've ever tried, with an easy install that took only minutes. my wife and i are tremendously pleased with it, and recommend it.

WARNING! When first installing a new filter in this shower filter head take the shower head and point it as close to the drain as you can! When the filter is new, it has little pieces of carbon from the manufacturing process (the product tells you this) which needs to be rinsed out, but if you don't put it near the drain little black pieces of carbon will splash EVERYWHERE. ANYWAY, as a shower: it works great, better than my old, two headed shower that reduced the pressure to a trickle. THIS head has great pressure, and the different types of spray patterns are pretty decent, but I just prefer one standard pattern anyway. As a filter: hard to tell, but the water feels better! I live in an apartment that is pretty old, and the water always tasted off in my opinion. When I showered I would feel like something was left on my skin, and I could definitely feel it in my hair. But I feel much better with this filter, everything rinses off easy, but that might be because the pressure is better. This shower filter installed in no time at all. Ridiculously easy. No leaking parts like other reviewers have given, it holds up nicely. The shower head comes off and on the mount easy after a few times.

Makes me feel cleaner and my showers are more enjoyable.

I've had an Aquasana showerhead with chlorine filter for a number of years. The replacement filters cost close to $50 EACH, so I tend to put off replacing it. But that's not a good thing to do, because the filter stops removing chlorine, and bacteria can start growing on the filtration medium. My Aquasana's filter was way overdue for replacing, but I just didn't want to spend another $50. So I did my research and found this replacement. For $19 more than the cost of a replacement Aquasana filter, I got an entire, brand-new system. Plus I can get two replacement filters for my new shower system for less than the cost of an Aquasana filter, so I bought it. It arrived super fast and installed in 15 minutes (including carefully reading the instructions before installing). I had to use some plumber's tape (a very generous amount is included with this shower filter system) to keep it from leaking where it connected to the shower pipe, and I had to tighten that connection very very firmly (for me; I am sure a stronger person could have tightened it even more). But once I did that, no more leaks. It works great and the water pressure is higher than it ever was on my Aquasana. The filter replacement process looks like it is well-thought-out, so it is much easier than my Aquasana. Plus it is nice to shower in water that doesn't smell of chlorine. I would give this product a full five stars, but the way the whole filter housing swivels when I hold the showerhead to rinse off is a little disturbing. It's designed to do that, but I'm worried that it will eventually cause wear and tear where it connects to the shower pipe. Still, even if I have to replace the entire thing in a few years, I will still have saved a LOT of money over keeping the Aquasana.

This was very easy to install and I installed it on my own with no leaks. I liked the fact it came with the white tape thingy. I know what its for, but do not know the name. Anyway the reason why I only gave this product 3 stars is, because it doesn't have a lot of pressure. Another reason is the way they made the removal of the shower head. I didn't notice it in pictures and no one mentioned it in reviews. Usually the hook to remove the shower head is attached to the base not the shower head. So you have this chunk of metal and plastic on shower head when you want it hand held. It is advertised you can remove shower head but when you hook the plastic on shower head to base its not an easy on and off. (For the price this part should have been better made) You have to struggle with it. Which makes me not want to remove it. So I lost this feature. Besides the filter that was the reason i purchased it. The metal on this is not heavy and it looks very nice. Anyway because of the on off feature from the base and shower head I do not think I would purchase this again. And I haven't been able to see any differance in filtration because I only had it for one day. I will come back to that part in a week or so. So I had this for 3 days and as I said about the mount. The hook attached to base broke off and it's made of plastic. For the amount of money wasted this should have been made better. Now my shower head hangs in the tub. I will not purchase this again! Tried gluing it but I know It will no hold. So pissed. I am waiting to see if I will get a refund

Our daughter is allergic to chlorine and gets terrible eczema over her whole body. We chose this because it was rated the best to eliminate chlorine. We had the water coming from the waterchef tested by the town water commission and there was 0.00 chlorine. We have had it for 2 months and she has no eczema. Great for elimination of chlorine and a really nice shower head as well.
