Double the Product, Double the Bargain

When my (then) boyfriend and I first moved into an apartment together, we bought a dual showerhead. Since we liked taking showers together, and he was tired of me hogging all of the water, he thought it'd be a good idea. We bought it for that purpose. But years later, we've broken up, and I have two shower heads. It seemed awkward, but now that the primary shower head has crapped out, I'm really grateful for the investment. A single shower head was priced at $50, while the dual shower head was worth $60. It was an easy choice. Living in a city that has hard water, I've been diligent about soaking the head in vinegar overnight every few months. After the first couple clogs, I started doing it routinely as a preventive measure. After almost two years, though, it was inevitable. My shower head's seal broke on the corner. I've never seen this happen before, so I was stunned. But my friend assured me that this happens, although usually it takes a while longer for shower heads to die. I suspect the hard water expedited the process. I certainly didn't set aside money to replace a shower head, which is something I plan to do now. In the meantime, the spare shower head has really helped me out. So, as odd as it seems, I recommend buying a dual shower head at Target. It'll serve you well. The next time I go to Target, I'll jot down the brand and list it.
