This is our 3rd purchase of this pelican shower head with filter. We love it. The features of the wand are very nice, a good range of water pressures and a nice length on the hose. My husband and I can see a noticible difference when the filters run out. The steam is very foggy. BUt put in one of these filters and you have clear steam! It's remakable. Our assumption is this is a result of the chemicals being pulled out of the water and not making it to vapor form. Softer skin, cleaner shower and cleaner air to breath.
