VitaMaxTM Vitamin C inline filter Review

VitaMaxTM Vitamin C inline filter
Average Reviews:

Just installed it 3 days ago. Easy to install. I've always had dry feeling skin regardless of what body lotion or cream I used. My skin does feel great the last couple of days. Skin feels moist. However, there's no water pressure from my shower anymore. I like the way my skin feels, but disappointed in what it did to water pressure. Not sure if I'll continue to use the filter. May continue the quest for a good product. Would give it 4.5 stars for how my skin feels, but 0 or 1 star for water pressure.

Product Description:
If you can't live without your existing showerhead and want the great benefits of the Vitamin C filter, this is for you. Vitamin C dechlorination has a lengthy history. It has been used in EPA and APHA methods for the dechlorination. Sonaki's Shower Filter releases the exact amount of vitamin to neutralize all chlorine or chloramines as the water passes through the shower filter. When the water is shut off, the filter stops releasing the vitamin. This economy of vitamin release increases the useful life of the filter significantly. Sonaki's Shower Filter contains roughly about 20 grams of Vitamin C and is capable of neutralizing 0.4 ppm chlorine in 10,000 litters(2,500 gallons) of water. The life time is independent on the temperature and pressure of water. The Sonaki Vitamin C filter removes chlorine or chloramines instantly allowing you to experience no stinky chlorine smell during water useage. The filters have very low maintenance cost ($1 per month) and are easy to install. They also come in an attractive see-through housing. Not plain white like all the others.Product comes in bulk-pack packaging only (no box just plactic sleeve and wrapping) with filter assembly and 1-Vitamin C filter.

Vitamin C Handheld Showerhead Chlorine Filter Review

Vitamin C Handheld Showerhead Chlorine Filter

I purchased this Unit a few months ago. I immediately noticed the cheap plastic connectors (alot of companies are doing this but this plastic was really cheap feeling). I give them credit for the metal hose though.I hooked it up and turned on the shower and water was flying everywhere from the shower pipe to where the Sonaki connected to it. I took it off and used even more plumbers tape and turned it on. Now, water just leaked from the spot so I left it like that (it shouldn't leak at all).

First impression:
Excellent water pressure and spray. I have poor water pressure and tried a waterpik handheld showerhead before that just didn't work well. The Sonaki showerhead has the best spray I have ever used-very good.

My hair felt softer and even though I wasn't happy about the leak I would have been more than pleased if.......
The cartridge lasted a month. It didn't. It lasted 2 weeks! This is just me showering once a day for 2 weeks. That would mean it would cost $200/year for cartridges. Not good. I liked the shower spray so much, however, that I decided to keep trying it out so I loaded the new cartridge that came with the Sonaki. I was surprised at how long this cartridge was lasting, the vitamin C wasn't going down much at all.

Then I noticed my hair and scalp were getting worse so I decided to check out the cartridge and found...........
There was no hole in the bottom of it! That meant water was going around the cartridge not through it. I compared it to the original cartridge and of course the first one had a hole in it, plus it was also a little bigger. Now, what the heck is going on here?

I happened to have also gotten a 5 pack of cartridges and checked them out. ALL of them had no hole in the bottom. Needless to say, back it went.
So, is this company scamming us? Is the company just incredibly inept with poor quality control? I was flabbergasted at what I had just seen.

I will add that if they improved the seal at the pipe, if the cartridge lasted 1 month, and if I didn't just see 6 out of 7 defective ones this would be a nice shower filter, so I gave it 2 stars for the spray power. As it stands, this is one screwed up company.

I have noticed others have said it doesn't filter the water as well as some other models. I can't speak to that statistic, because I have never measure the difference in water quality, though I would be curious to do that one day. All I can say about that is now that I have had mine long enough for the filter to quit working, I can absolutely see a huge difference in the time range (1) before I bought the filter, (2) when it was working at peak performance, and (3) after it ran out. My skin started to feel dry and my hair turned to straw, and the water just didn't feel as "clean" and soft - a clear indicator it was time to change filters.

Lastly, it's touted as a handheld showerhead, but my shower happens to be high enough and angled in such a way that I actually use it as a regular shower as well. And I love the fact that it has a good range of adjustable speeds.

I'm not sure about the claims of 6 - 12 months of filter usage. I was told by Sprite that the filters should be replaced every two months. Of course, that depends on how much the shower gets used - a single person versus a family of four will have different outputs. Specifically, it's supposed to be good for 3000 gallons, and uses 2.5 gallons per minute, so it's easy to calculate the projected life of the filter by how many showers are taken each day, and the duration of each shower.

There may be other filters that work better for cleaning every little thing from the water, and I would be curious to test them one day. But my skin and hair seem happy with this one, and for the price, I am happy too.

I also have to say I am very, very happy with their customer service. I went to change my filter for the first time last week, and the plastic portion where the two pieces screw together broke. It has a year warranty, so I called them, and they immediately called me back, were very cordial and helpful, and within hours, my new shower replacement parts were on their way. Two days later, they were in my mailbox, and I'm back in business. A business gets put to the ultimate test when things go wrong, and I'm very happy with the way my issue was handled.
