Great for skin!
I purchased the AQ4100 Shower filter because a friend recommended it for my dry skin. I have had extremely dry skin my whole life(due to chlorine in bathing water). Now I don't even have to use lotion, and my skin is always soft. I will not shower with out this filter!

It really does work well!
I had been getting headaches almost every day for a few months, tried everything I could think of to figure out why, stopped drinking caffeine and a lot of other things, then I realized my water had begun to be treated heavily with chlorine, I noticed that when I didn't shower for a day or so when I was away , no headache. I decided that the chlorine was giving me headaches and bought the aquasana, I haven't gotten a headache since it really works well!!

very satisfied
I've had this filter and the kitchen counter-top unit for nearly two months. Here's a few thoughts on the shower filter.
The shower head is pretty great. I use the setting between massage and full spray. It uses ALL the jets and the water falls on you instead of spraying. Yet, there seems to be plenty of water. Kind of like a waterfall, which seems fitting.
The water itself has no bad odor. It simply smells like a fresh, cool, spring rain. None of the chlorine, or chemical odors that usually fill a bathroom. I notice that I don't cough in the shower like I used to. My skin is less dry out of the shower. My shampoo seems to lather better and rinses out faster and better. My hair is a little fuller, probably from less buildup-- both minerals and shampoo residue. My scalp and skin are less itchy.
I have not had any cracks, but I have only had it 2 months. The connection to the shower pipe has a drip.. drip.. drip.. leak. But I'm actually impressed. The pipe does not have a "flat" pipe end. I don't blame the shower filter for this. The shower head did have a small leak but has stopped.
I have no idea if it really "filters" all the stuff they say it does. Also the company uses questionable sales tactics on the internet. That "filter comparisons" website that pops up on EVERY "water filter" web search, is ran by the guy who owns the company. Kinda sleazy, I'm dropping a star for that.
Otherwise, it works good and I plan to keep using it.
