HSH-C135

I cannot express how thankful I am to have found this product! I also own the shower head version WSH-C 125 and it transformed my daughter's chlorine damaged hair back to silk! I had exhausted everything and after extensive research I learned what hard water can do to hair. Add to the equation our new pool and chlorine and her fine blonde hair turned to straw in a matter of 2 months. Now I no longer smell the chlorine in her hair and after one shampoo her hair was changed. I was so shocked. I have a full review of this struggle under the other shower head. I myself have brown fine but coarse highlighted hair and my natural "frizz" and texture of my hair has improved dramatically as well. It is softer than it has been in years. All the damage and abuse is being washed away. I decided to purchase the hand held version as well due to a large golden retriever that loves to find mud puddles in the backyard. I was nervous seeing the earlier reviews with the mounting bracket, but I did find where they changed this and improved the product. My husband installed this in 10-15 minutes which included removing the old one as well. We have low water pressure and I was worried about the filter making it even worse. The flow and pressure from both of the shower heads is better than my old ones! It's insane AND we left the flow restrictors in place! I actually have decent water pressure now and I get hot water more quickly. Usually it takes 4-5 minutes for our hot water to make it downstairs to our bathroom and kitchen sink. I had hot water in 1:45 seconds. The kitchen....still a sore spot! I have no problems with the angle or adjusting the spray. Is it heavy? Of course. It's just as heavy as my old hand held that didn't have a filter! Luckily I don't have to try and shower with this in my hand because I would make a massive mess! I love having it to bathe the dog for his inopportune rolls in the mud and to clean the shower as well. When I am bathing the dog the handle feels comfortable in my hand and it's not heavy to me, it feels just like my previous Moen one. The mount is also nice and secure. It's a high quality fixture. Whatever your needs are for the shower head you can order this one in confidence. I'm glad I decided to try it. Don't let the old reviews deter you, they did improve the mounting bracket. This thing is awesome. Attractive, functions, amazing results and cheap filter replacement cost. 09/06/2016 Update: My damaged hair no longer feels like straw. I had no idea that hard water could play such an important role! I attributed the texture and feel to having highlights and color on a regular basis. I have been using the new shower heads just shy of a month and unlike my daughter's transforming over night mine has taken longer, and rightfully so. My frizz is under control and continuing to improve. I have also noticed it is starting to look substantially healthier. It no longer feels like straw either. Honestly, I can't even remember my hair being soft due to the texture which has now changed so much it's still surreal. My hair hasn't looked this heathy in 20 years. Reminds me of the hair I had as a child. I was also watching my daughter play volleyball this weekend and sitting in the upper level I noticed her hair shined more than any of the other girls. It has a certain glow that is easy to see and has great body to it. No products being used. All the money I had wasted on products and treatments and it's just a simple shower head. Wow.

I've actually purchased three of these over the years. I had one for probably ten years and finally needed to replace it as the nubs the water comes out of were brittle and breaking after so long. I recently bought another one for my second bathroom. It is a bit heavy because of the filter in the head, but it's not unusable. It's just something to get used to. I like that it softens the water. It makes it less itchy to shower, especially for my family members with dry skin. The filter is easy to install/replace and I've never had an issue getting replacement filters. There are three settings for the water, I don't usually change it though. A basic shower, a softer more aerated setting, and a hard massaging setting. Overall I like this showerhead a lot and as long as it still exists when the current ones need to be replaced (hopefully another 10 years) I'd buy it again.

HORRIBLE DESIGN. DO NOT BUY THIS MODEL IF YOU WANT A HAND HELD FILTERED SHOWER MASSAGER!!!!! The shower head is on a rotating ball joint and it was done this way because the previous models broke at this joint due to the weight of the filter and because it is made of plastic instead of chrome or metal as it should be in the first place! The filter is so heavy that it rolls this joint down and backwards so far that when the water is on, it shoots out backwards towards the shower wall so that I have to stand astride the bathtub faucet with my back up against the wall to have any water spraying on me. Since I don't need to wash my hair every day, I usually wear a shower cap but since I'm forced to stand with the tub faucet between my legs so that the shower water hits me, no shower cap invented can withstand the shower stream hitting it backwards, up and from the wrong angle. I've tried duct taping that joint and tying it with everything from wire to waterproof rope to no avail. It lasts maybe for two or three showers and then the thing rolls, points down and back towards the wall again. I usually end up just hanging the hand held shower around my neck to keep warm and wet while I shampoo or wash and then hold the shower to rinse off but this just doesn't work when I'm trying to shave my legs. I could just tape the shower into it's holding joint/arms and I think this would help hold it up at the right angle better and for longer but then this defeats the reason I needed a hand held shower in the first place. I need a hand held shower massager to hit all those painful areas a stationary shower head won't, (I have fibromyalgia), to also wash my dog and to easily rinse out the bathtub and shower walls after cleaning them. So although I bought this on it's Culligan name and reputation, so that I would have filtered shower water and so that I could massage my pain away as needed, it was an expensive waste. SHAME ON YOU CULLIGAN! I'll never buy anything with your name on it again.

Superb product!

Fantastic product. Instant results, we were dealing with heavily chlorinated and hard water. Our hair was dry, brittle, tangled, and our skin felt tight and irritated after showers. Installation was easy, the results were instant. Hair is soft and detangled, skin is soft and comfortable again. The shower head is very heavy from the weight of the cartridge, and it does tend to drop forward, but that's my only complaint. There is another shower head style without a wand if that seems like a big issue for you, I assume it works just as well.

Dont know if it had any effevt but the fact that the filters are more expensive than the showerhead+filter makes it useless

I'm very happy with this so far, my hair is less dry and frizzy and it appears to be good for my severe eczema.

Made a huge difference! We have extremely hard water here in Rockwood Ontario CA this year seemed to be worse with my skin full of rashes and peeling skin, dry scalp and really icky feeling hair ( no good for me as it is super thick and down to my waist). Had hubby install this and although the reviews seem to be accurate regarding water pressure being low and the handle itself being very heavy,I haven't had any other difficulties. good product Culligan !

Bought this shower head after moving to a town with very hard water (also the shower head that came with the house was terrible). The Culligan is great, it wasn't too expensive and we noticed a big change in our water immediately. The only problem might be that it is a little heavy with the filter in it (although we don't mind because we don't take it off of the holder almost at all).
