A bit concerning it's been put up for sale but for near £10 it's worth a punt

Council come out this morning and replaced my aqualisa like for like bar the hose because the supplied hose is plastic which kinks because it's too short a hose, a basic longer metal hose out performs it all day long so that remained in place. Why do they supply short hoses?
I don't think I would ever want to buy anything off Vinted isn't it full of secondhand stuff and scam sellers?

Why didn't you just not go to Amazon and find something, it's a shower head?

Re: What have you fixed lately?

It's sealed in it's box. I totally get the buy cheap buy twice but vinted often crushes that saying, it's a very good place to buy or get rid of stuff on the cheap.

Received this afternoon. It's a massive improvement. The spray reaches the far end of my bath tub.

Re: What have you fixed lately?

I bought this to go before the head. The filtered water appears to be so much better for my skin. After a shower I do not dry dry if you catch my drift . Even my hair is in better condition

Re: What have you fixed lately?

I saw that searching shower heads. Does the attachment make handling the shower head difficult?

If it needed changing once a month I think that is expensive, that is why I asked, lasting 6 months is ok though so I may give it ago, but my shower head is hand held so would it install where it screws onto the mixer tap?

One service of my IPTV costs me around £2 a month but it kind of costs me nothing because the Everup shopping app gives me at least £2 a week in free money.
