WaterChef Handheld Shower Filter System SF-7C (Chrome) - 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.

In a time where quality and customer service are nearly extinct, it's wonderful to deal with a company that stands by its product. I have had my Water Chef shower system since 2015 and couldn't be happier. I change the filters as directed, but recently began having water pressure issues. Since the filter was relatively new, I figured maybe the system was simply getting old and needed to be replaced. I purchased a new one which was ready in the box for when a plumber visited my home to fix something else. He removed the filter and showed me the shower now worked fine, and that the problem was with the filter. When I called Water Chef, the associate was very knowledgeable about the causes of a clogged filter, explained it to me, and sent me a re[placement filter. He did not try to just sell me a new system. Luckily, I had not taken the new shower system from the box and easily returned it.When a company genuinely cares about it's customers, that's when they get me as a loyal customer. Thank you, Water Chef!

The water pressure wasn’t not too adversely affected, the pressure is still pretty close to original. The first thing I noticed was the water was slightly less slippery and felt like I was more clean. The water taste in my mouth from the shower was less offensive too. After the shower I noticed my skin was softer than normal too. I assume less chlorine means less stripping off my body oils and leaves my skin softer. Overall I’m happy. I did switch out the shower head to keep my original XL large head waterpick (oddly enough the pressure seems better on that one too). Do be warned that the initial flush of the shower head was extremely black and sooty (very messy). Make sure you aim the head down the drain on first use otherwise the black carbon powdery will spray everywhere and splash up and make a mess on your walls and shower curtain like it did for me (even though it was aimed perfectly in the middle of my bath tub the splash up made mess). This is a non issue though it’s just a warning to be mindful of it and we all expected some black to wash out, I just wasn’t expecting that much (it came out like solid black paint) I woild recommend this model to anyone in the market for one of these.

This showerhead filter is good quality, works, and looks nice (although it doesn't match our pipe... oops). It was also really easy to install. We did not need to use the included tape or remove any flow restrictors. The water pressure feels the same as our old shower head. The only thing we had to use a tool for was the screw on the hinged piece that holds the showerhead. It was loose, and due to the weight of the showerhead, drooped a little. A twist with a Phillips head fixed that, no problem! It's large, but not too low in our shower, even for my 6' boyfriend. The hose length is also very long... perfect for doggie baths. There are 4 settings (two "needle" and two "massaging" or whatever you would call more concentrated flow). They are easy to switch between and the switch feels sturdy. We have only had it a few days but the difference in water quality was immediately noticeable. My boyfriend was having issues with very dry hair due to the quality of our water and I was dealing with scalp irritation and dry skin. I will say that I do have sensitive, dry skin, so I suspect I will always have these issues... but they were worse than usual! After installing this filter, his hair is soft again and I don't feel like I need to coat myself in lotion immediately after stepping out of the shower. My skin and hair are softer overall and I also feel like my shampoo rinses cleaner. I am a convert and we will definitely be using this shower head for a long time to come. Also, it seems like it will be easy to change the filter; I unscrewed the compartment just to check and it was simple to open up. Replacement filters are also reasonably priced and available on Amazon. Overall, it's not a *miracle* or anything, but I'm very happy with this purchase!

We already purchased one of these already. We are so pleased thus far, that we decided to buy another for our second bathroom.
