About Eskiin
Eskiin is a Beaverton, Oregon-based direct-to-consumer shower-filtration brand founded in 2023 by Wes, who built the company's first filtered showerhead after his own search for a product that helped with eczema and hard-water skin irritation came up empty. The company's stated mission is to bring clean shower water to one million homes, and its lineup has grown from a single wall-mount head into wall-mount, handheld, and purifying showerhead lines built around the same multi-stage filter cartridge.
The flagship filter blends KDF-55 redox media, calcium sulfite, and coconut-activated carbon, which Eskiin says is independently lab-tested to exceed NSF/ANSI 177 chlorine-reduction thresholds — a brand claim rather than the certification itself, a distinction worth noting for buyers who want a fully certified product. What isn't in question is the reception: Eskiin holds a 4.4-star rating across more than 700 Trustpilot reviews, and independent outlets like Water Filter Guru have put the head through direct testing rather than taking the marketing at face value.

Why we recognized Eskiin
The DIYRated Top Brand recognition isn't paid for and can't be applied for. We award it to the brands whose products consistently stand out in our hands-on category reviews.

Eskiin products we rated highly
Eskiin Filtered Showerhead
Eskiin's showerhead runs water through a 15-stage cartridge combining KDF-55, calcium sulfite, and coconut-activated carbon, which the brand says is lab-tested to exceed NSF-177 performance thresholds (a brand claim, not the certification itself). In our testing, it stood out for scalp and dandruff relief and for protecting color-treated hair, a more specific claim than the generic softer-skin promise most filtered heads make, backed by a distinctly fine, high-pressure spray that owners report roughly doubles the pressure of the head it replaced.
