I was a bit skeptical about the KDF-55 at first, but after reading this article, I'm actually considering getting it too... their removal rates on heavy metals are pretty impressive! 
I gotta say, I was surprised by how well the Aquasana Shower Filter with Handheld Wand did! 
I mean, it's not as effective at removing heavy metals as some of the other options, but it's still a solid choice for people who just want to get rid of chlorine. 
And I love that they tested six different filters and got pretty consistent results across the board. 
But yeah, if you're looking for something that can really knock out all the contaminants, I'd say go with the Weddell Duo! 
! having clean water while showering is a game changer 
i mean who wants to be exposing themselves to all those nasty chemicals? 
it's great that they tested different filters and found that the weddell duo was the most effective 
and softening water to a safe level is so important too 
i've had issues with hard water in the past and it's all about finding the right balance 
. the weddell duo seems like a solid choice tho - removed most of the heavy metals, which is crazy 
. also, it's cool that they tested for scale buildup too, because who wants hard water? 
. anyway, if you're in the market for a new shower filter, just make sure to do your research and read reviews 
! i mean its not cheap or anything but if it can really remove 99.9% of chlorine and scale buildup too, that's a major win in my book 
. also side note, why do shower filters still need to be replaced every 6-12 months tho?! can't they just make them last forever or something 
.
. I guess that's just what happens when you rely on just carbon to clean your water, huh? Anyway, all in all, I'd say the Weddell Duo is a solid choice if you're looking for a filter that can handle everything 
? Either way, I think it's awesome that there are more options out there to choose from and that people can make informed decisions about their water quality 
anyway i gotta say i'm a bit surprised by the results. i was expecting the Aquasana Shower Filter with Handheld Wand to be way more effective in removing heavy metals 
I mean, who doesn't love a good shower? Like, think about it, we're basically just paying money to be surrounded by all sorts of yucky stuff that's supposed to clean us... Talk about ironic!
