SparkPod Ultra Shower Filter & Cartridge

This shower filter was so easy to put on that it only took me 2 minutes! I was completely surprised at how simple it was. I didn't really know how well it worked when I ordered it, but you can really tell a difference having the chlorine, mercury, arsenic, and lead filtered out of your hard water. The water now is very luxurious and does not dry my hair and skin out. They've done a really good job with the activated carbon block technology, which makes the unit not only effective but also small. I had no leaks, but I did use a pair of vise grips to tighten it a little tighter even though they said that you didn't need tools. From what I'm reading the filters typically last 4 months, and the first one is included. However, it does depend on how many people are taking showers in your house as to how long the filters will actually last before you have to replace it. I am highly satisfied with the filter and how the water feels. I highly recommend it!
