Massaging Shower Head High Pressure - Multi-Function, Massage Rainfall Showerhead With Boosting Mist For Low Flow Showers & Adjustable Water Saving Nozzle, 2.5 GPM - Chrome

This is the back story:My pretty old, but still functioning Delta showerhead literally came unfixably apart a week ago when I was adjusting a setting. We loved it so much and it matched all our other bathroom fixtures, so we wanted it again. Three problems - 1) the style has been discontinued 2) My color, polished brass, despite being a beautiful finish, doesn't seem to be a popular choice anymore and if you can find one that you might like, it probably doesn't have the settings you want or it's huge and would be completely out of place in a small bathroom with a small tub and 3) the biggie - because I live in a state where the gubment decided water flow couldn't be more than 1.8gpm for showerheads and mine is 2.5gpm. Delta, Amazon and many others WILL NOT SHIP IT TO ME for that reason. No getting around it. I'm not going to ask an out of town friend to get it for me and send it to me. That’s just not my style.The upshot:I was rather upset but then, after a lot of researching, I saw Aqua Elegante and went bonkers. Why? Because I was so happy to find reasonably sized, well priced, nearly perfect colors with nice settings AND the 2.5gpm flow AND there didn’t seem to be a problem with shipping to my state. So, I bought 2 different ones with the expectation that one or the other would suffice. Well, THEY BOTH SUFFICE – MORE THAN SUFFICE – they’re both gorgeous and they both work well. I installed one and then the other to see how each works, and I’m pleased to report that there was no leaking in either so far and both have easily movable settings. Both seem nice and solid without being heavy. I’m keeping both. And given the fact that 2.5gpm is becoming the exception and may be “outlawed” countrywide at some point, I want to have a backup. In the event that one conks out, I won’t have to go searching for anything else because I’ll have a beautiful alternative. This is the one installed now. The other one that’s waiting in the wings is the 6 Function Adjustable Luxury Shower Head. I've only had them a few days, so I can't really speak to longevity. I'm hoping that they'll be as sturdy and reliable as they are beautiful. In the meantime, I'm pretty happy.

This is the second and third one we have purchased. They are very easy to install and the water flow is just right. The nozzles clean easily and never fully clog. Highly recommend.

I think the various settings and their pressures are absolutely amazing and perfect! I just really wish it came in a larger size.

It's nice

Easily installed. Works well

Great water pressure! Exactly what we needed.

This is the best shower head I’ve ever used, far better than brand names at twice the price. I bought for an updated bathroom in antique bronze, matched perfectly, but the best part is the water pressure and spray pattern (also adjustable), easy install. Tip remove the flow restriction O ring for a full pressure invigorating shower.

So my shower is basically the smallest standing shower that probably exists, a 2x2 little porcelain hole in the bathroom wall with curtains. And the shower head was this incredibly basic thing that was rusted onto its lead pipe. There was no way to get out from under the direct spray while washing, no way to increase or reduce the pressure. The pressure was moderate and adequate, but after briefly staying in a hotel with a nice shower head similar to this one, I knew I couldn't go back. So I found this.The mist setting is perfect for shaving.The low pressure, small "rain" drizzle is perfect for when I need just a little moisture to soap up or comb my conditioner through my hair without rinsing it out immediately.The high pressure jet punches through my thick hair for a very thorough rinse of shampoo that feels like it's giving my scalp an extra scrub and massage.And the rain setting is ideal for that final rinse.Parts of the product page say this has 3 settings, others say 6, but it seems to have exactly 4 modes to select from. I suppose you could get up to 7 if you left the little adjustment arm between clicks, but that feels kind if disingenuous, as it's just halfway between modes.I think if I had a complaint it would be that this neck does not bend nearly as far as they say it does. 360 degrees would be ridiculous, as it would bend all the way around itself and back again, but I was hoping for at least a 90 degree turn. You'd be lucky to get 45 out of this thing. The old one was more flexible, but frankly it's not worth going back. The tape that comes with it is far too thin, I wound up using plumber's thread stick instead. No biggie, that stuff is super cheap. :)
