Tools and Hardware Reviews of Aquasana Combo Pack #11 - AQ4105 Shower Filter System with Wand and an Extra Replacement Filter
Customer Review: Buyer Beware
Summary: 1 Stars
I have a feeling most of the positive reviews on here are from Sun Water employees, even the ones that say "real name."
So I noticed my skin would break out at my apartment, but not when I travelled. I figured out it was the chlorine...my skin hates it. So I bought the Culligan for about $30 and it did a great job, the filters just did not last very long. Then I decided to try this one because I wanted to go a step better. It was a step in the wrong direction. And, after doing some research, I am confident this company is a scam. One, when you connect the filter you have to get rid of all the extra black carbon (the water comes out black at first). After a couple of minutes the water is clear, but a week later I was sill getting black stains on the bottom of my shower (can'be be good for my skin). So I did some more research and found this review:

My skin hated the acquasana filter (it might have made my water worse). It is not NSF certified (the Culligan is; as is the Sprite). There is a reason why Lowes and Home Depot don't carry this brand--it doesn't work and it is not NSF certified. You get the most for your money with the Sprite, which is what I have now. Wish I hadn't wasted my money on this. Oh, and now aquasana calls me every couple of weeks trying to sell me a new filter (I only purchased it a month ago).
...also, I haven't tried the Vitamin C filters, but I hear they are good too (probably have a higher filter cost than the Sprite):
