Review on 🚿 Enhance Your Shower Experience with the Kingston Brass K136A5 Designer Trimscape Showerscape 8" Round Shower Head in Oil Rubbed Bronze by Troy Arnold

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Some things to note:

Five stars because the product was delivered as advertised, on time, with a good fit and finish. But there are a few things to consider: 1.) As mentioned earlier, water pressure comes into play with this showerhead. I'm afraid if you try to hang this unit from a standard corner shower faucet you'll be disappointed: the shower head doesn't have enough pressure to direct the water onto your body without being uncomfortably close to the wall. . This is definitely a rain shower head, it needs to be right over your head to work as intended OR you need very impressive water pressure. We already had one of those adjustable extensions so we were ready to go there. But: 2.) If you're using an adjustable shower head, be aware that the weight of that large shower head combined with the extra water it holds may be too much for the friction fittings on your extension. It happened to us. During installation it looked fine; but when I turned on the shower to check, the weight of the water entering the head just pulled the whole assembly down, womp womp. The friction joints on the extension just couldn't break it, no amount of clamp would help them stay on. I was lucky enough to have thick copper wire to use for MacGuyver's (a bit ugly but serviceable) sling to hold the build together. I tried it and had a great shower. The proof of the pudding will, of course, be what the woman says when she tastes it!
