Culligan HSH-C135 Level 2 Hand-Held Filtered Chrome Showerhead Review

Culligan HSH-C135 Level 2 Hand-Held Filtered Chrome Showerhead

PROS: Showerhead was very easy to install, package includes teflon tape, and the improvement in water quality was instantly apparant. Filter type is almost identicle to filters in showerheads significantly more expensive. Installation instructions were very very clear, with several common troubleshooting remedies included. Appearance is good. Filter is very easy to exchange, cheap to purchase, and present in the head itself, instead of an annoying tank taking up space where you might hang a shower caddy. Good quality, aluminum wrapped hose and connectors. Includes easily removable 'water-saving' pressure regulator for high or low pressure water systems. Massage spray is excellent at high pressure.
CONS: The showerhead sprays water straight out, resulting in a 3 inch column of water that doesn't cover the whole body. If you want a shower that sprays at a wide angle, this one won't. The narrow field of spray is all that kept this showerhead from achieving a five-star review.
MISC: The filter is present in the shower head, which increased the overall weight of the handle to about 1-2 lbs. Handle mounts at the bottom, resulting in a very high overhead shower. All hardware (except pipe joints) is chromed plastic, not solid chrome, which significantly reduces weight, but don't drop the thing, or it's liable to crack just like plastic would. Chromed plastic is very common in showerheads and plumbing appliances.
The above user who had problems with her pressure might want to remove or re-situate her pressure regulator, or inspect her supply pipe for a clog, or contact her landlord or a local plumber to ensure there isn't an overall drop of pressure system-wide. Pressure drops wouldn't be readily apparant in sinks, toilets or other low-pressure water devices. The showerhead itself is only channels for distributing water, and (apart from the one regulator valve) has little to do with the pressure achieved by the system before it.

This is a very nice product for its intended use (albeit one that is rather similar to many others marketed elsewhere). However, please bear in mind a couple of subtleties that may not be obvious from the item description:
(1) The length of the hose is measured at its theoretically full extension. However, the hose never actually reaches this full extension because of elastic resistance (i.e. the very same "spring" effect which is the reason you presumably bought the hose) and torsion along the length of the hose as it is stretched. My experience is that you lose approximately 25% of the hose's length to these two effects. The only way to beat this is by making sure that the hose's rated length is that much LONGER than you need.
(2) Make sure that you have the appropriate adapter permitting you to attach the hose to your faucet. Designer faucets, faucets with hose attachments, imported faucets, and outdoor faucets all may have trouble working with this hose out of the box.
