2.0 Carbon Shower Head Filter System | Removes Chlorine, Heavy Metals, And More | Great For Dry Skin/ Hair, And More | NSF Certified

I have nothing bad to say about this product at all. This is by far the best shower filter I have ever used. I live in a city apartment and the chlorine was wrecking havoc on my hair but especially on my skin as it felt like I was having a chemical burn on my arms after every shower. I don't feel that at all anymore which is wonderful and an added bonus that my hair is also silkier & healthier. I got this same thing for my sister when she moved which was a good thing we did as not only was she on city water too and has sensitive skin like me. But her water is also pretty high is either iron or magnesium as her water is orange sometimes. This filter takes care of that too. Sadly she did have to change the filter more often because of it but regardless it does a phenomenal job. Seriously I love this product!

This filter was super easy to install if one is the least bit mechanically inclined. It took me a couple minutes to remove my shower head, install the filter body, flush It, and reattach my shower head. This filter did drop my shower head about 3" which affected me a little bit. I do have to bend down a touch when I am washing my hair. For some people, that might be a big deal, but I do not mind for the perceived benefit.My water is from a municipal source. My water has a bit of iron and lime scale in it. I will be able to tell if if it is keeping some of that stuff out of my shower water. I did shower with this once. The water did have a softer feel than normal, and my shower literally did feel more refreshing than normal. I do not have a chlorine tester or other fancy water testing device, and I can only go by how things feel. However, I will be able to check for iron staining after using it for awhile as the filter claims to reduce iron.I also read a lot of reviews from people who have well water that installed this filter and complained about having no filter life. I am guessing they need a pretty large whole house filter to block a lot of impurities in their water.Edit: I did buy a water testing kit. I tested for a few things. Anyway, this filter did remove chlorine. I also want to state that I did test warm shower temperature water as I know that some filters cannot filter out chemicals in warm or hot water.Edit 2: I used my filter for about 7 months. I live alone and typically shower about twice a day. I decided to swap out my filter before it "went bad". It still seemed like it was filtering chlorine, but I did not want to chance it. Obviously, someone with worse water quality might have a shorter filter life. I also installed a new shower head when I installed this filter. I went with a 1.5 gpm model to help slow the water down a touch and to help improve filtering. My shower head never gummed up, since I installed this, with lime scale which is a first for me as my area has ridiculously hard water. Also, there have been no iron stains in my shower since I installed this. Yes, it does pull that stuff out of the water.Edit 3: I am still happy with this system and have used it for about 4 few years without problems. I alleviated my shower height issue by installing a goose neck shower pipe which raised my showerhead several inches. I wish I would have done that years ago.Lastly, I have seen people complaining the filter does not remove any chlorine from their water. You might want to check if your water system uses chloramjnes before getting mad because this filter alone won't remove chloramines.

Purchased this filter barring other reviews, I needed to replace another shower filter that needs to frequent replacing. I moved to a horrendous complex with water that is so chlorinated that it feels like I'm bathing in Clorox! Other shower filters have worked, but after a month or so they need replacement as I can smell the chlorine in the water.So, I decided to buy this filter system: at first, like many others, it leaked quite profusely, where the filter connects to the downspout as well as the plastic case. After fiddling with this on and off for few months, adding more tape to the downspout at the inlet into the filter, all leaking has ceased.Definitely effective in removing chlorine, no chlorine smell. The shower head is one I purchased from Amazon, and because of using filters, no clogging. I actually use the showehead to bathe as I like to sit and relax while cleaning myself. I'm confident that the water is safe to bathe.I took one star off as I tried to contact the seller but never received a response, mostly over the issues of leaking, which I finally resolved. I also use the showehead to spray down the tub, using the shower filter. Water does accumulate in the plastic housing, so I usually unscrew and empty the water.No other major problems, installing was easy. Do, for now, I'm quite satisfied.Update;Just replaced filter as I could smell chlorine while bathing. Just received the new filter, let water run for two minutes as the water is dark with carbon from the filter. Will say that no more chlorine smell. About water softness, that's debatable. All I'm concerned about is chlorine, which is a toxic cancer causing chemical, and for now it has been eliminated.

Fantastic filter, easy to replace.
