Compare Drinking Water Filters.
All performance claims and pricing were taken from the manufacturer's literature and/or actual testing.
Many models were considered and not included in this comparison because of undocumented or exaggerated performance claims. Most shower filters we reviewed were simply too small and did not contain enough filter media to perform as claimed.
As the shower filter industry is fairly new and unregulated, make sure you are dealing with a reputable company.
