Purchased this model as well as chrome version from home depot. This model does not include shower head.

I live in L.A., a city notorious for dreadful water quality. After a recent house move my skin became super dry & itchy & developed a slight rash/hives sometimes after showering. My normally have great skin was parched & aged, my highlighted hair was dull & drained of colour. I chalked it up to moving stress until my hairdresser mentioned her clients up in the hills all complained of similar problems and recommended a shower filter.

Sprite brand was reviewed well enough, and I noticed an immediate difference; my hair felt like hair again, the fancy face moisturizers I''d bought were no longer necessary. When I wash my face in the unfiltered sink water instead of the shower I can feel a huge difference.

The bad newsSprite filters do not remove chloramine (the gross mix of chlorine & ammonia used in public drinking/bathing water), despite that, as stated, I saw a huge difference in the water quality so until I can find an alternative that removes everything, this is a great option.

I took one star off, as the unit I purchased (from home depot)was a tad hard to screw on properly, I still have some water dribbling out of the top or bottom. I expect I''ll need to replace it sooner than 6 months because of the severity of my water. I''m fine with that and the price considering how much it helped.
