I specifically wanted a shower head with a built in filter and 9 spray modes but all sellers were USA-based, except for one: Spares-2-Go. (In fact, this is the second purchase I've made from them, the first was for a plumbing item other UK-based retailers weren't selling but should have been.) So, I've become a fan. Back to the product. It's EXCELLENT. I live in a "hard to very hard" water area. Since using this shower head, my hair is so much softer, my skin isn't flushed with irritation anymore, and the shower screen is staying cleaner for much longer. A bonus is that the water pressure isn't negatively impacted either. I dare you to use the mist mode and not be transported to a tropical rainforest. Just BUY IT.
