Several years ago, I bought the wall mounted shower filter and it was amazing.  My hairdresser remarked on how my color had stayed so long and I told her about my shower filter.  Since that time, now that there is a silver one now and I wanted to try the one with the wand, I got this one.  Didn't think I could like this one better but love the hand held feature as it really gets the soap out of my hair!  This is an excellent product and we plan to get one for the guest bathroom as well!  Could not be happier!!!!
