Review on 🚿 Enhance Your Shower Experience with the DELTA-FAUCET 59799-KS-PK H2Okinetic Hand Shower Handshower in Black Stainless by John Ferguson

Unless you prefer very low water flow, the first thing you need to do is remove the water restriction plug. Look at the water intake and you'll see a blue disk with a four-pronged centerpiece that looks like you could unscrew it with a broad-headed screwdriver. You can't unscrew it, but you can use a pair of pliers (ideally short nosed pliers like the one in my photo) and pull it out with little effort. There are four small teeth in the middle. Just grab one of these tabs and pull. Now you get decent water pressure. Otherwise I think almost everyone will be extremely disappointed with the low water pressure. Of course I was, and my house has pretty high water pressure. I was doing my best to give a 2 star review before suddenly realizing that almost all shower heads come with a water limiting plug. Maybe it's to meet some local regulations. The packaging does not state that this shower comes with a limited water flow. After removing the blue water limiter plug you should get the water pressure you see in the video in the advert. I have fairly high water pressure (60psi) so you may or may not get the same water flow as in my video below. The Waterpik Power Spray 14 shower head I just removed has two or three spray modes that are so powerful they literally burn my skin. Water flows to maintain temperature when turned back on. You can lather with full strength soap without wasting water. I don't know why going from break to last position would cause a burn, but they wouldn't have mentioned it if it wasn't the case. The third and last position has the most water flow over a large area, probably for soap washing. ------------- Warning of burns! This information is in very small print, which many people will see. you need a magnifying glass to read. Obviously they don't want you to notice the burn warnings. They state that advanced water-saving showerheads (which limit water flow to 2.5 gpm at 80psi) (extremely high pressure) can burn a bather while flushing the toilet or in similar situations. My house has separate plumbing lines to toilets and sinks. Each shower and bath has its own separate plumbing, but this is not the rule. Continue reading! Also, the pause button, as they call it, is in the middle position, and you can also burn yourself if you switch from the middle pause position to the third high-flow position. They advise you to point the shower away from you and others when changing from the middle jet position to the third position. They claim that plumbing codes don't allow them to completely turn off the water in pause (middle) mode. Why do you even need a pause mode? And how do you describe this pause mode? In a word, on the back of the packaging. There are three black squares placed vertically. Drops of water are depicted on the top two, as in flowing water. The bottom black square is solid black with the word "Pause" next to it. That's all they mention about the break, aside from the burn warnings in fine print. In addition, they warn against allowing children to use this shower head as they could burn themselves while playing with the button that changes the water flow from the medium pause position to the high flow position. . You will notice that this is not the sequence indicated by the black squares. They show the pause position last. It is in the middle position. ------------ Well, here are some reasons why I can't give a 5 star rating. I didn't like the deceptively hidden burn-in warnings. No water hose is included. It does not come with a wall hanger or shower hanger. So, in addition to the high price, you need to buy a hose and install a wall mount. At this price you would think it would come with a mount and an 8ft hose. In my case, I used an existing bracket and hose from my Waterpik shower head. The original Waterprick hose was only five feet long, so I had to buy another 8 foot hose. Now I have four new five foot tubes but I can sell them. I'm so glad I finally figured out how to pull out the blue water limiting disc. There are usually instructions detailing the water restriction element and how to remove it. Why did they hide this information from the customer? It's like asking for bad customer reviews. I've noticed other reviews not being happy with the water flow and to my knowledge they didn't realize they could change it. Even I was afraid to unplug the blue plug for fear of breaking something. That's a lot of money to play with without being sure it's safe to ruin the blue disk or other parts attached to it. If you decide you don't like it, it certainly lowers your chances of getting it back - a very likely outcome of leaving that blue disc in place. Bold, not microscopic 6 or 8 point type that is essentially illegible and unrecognizable at first glance. This was clearly done on purpose. The obvious impression is that Delta doesn't care about its customers or their burned children. I would call that a design flaw. I'm a former VP of Engineering with a dozen issued patents, and I feel entitled to make such a claim. On the other hand, this is also why I don't install my water heaters above 120 degrees Fahrenheit, which is OSHA's recommended outlet temperature. Water heaters can be set to temperatures as high as 145 degrees Fahrenheit — sweltering temperatures that result in severe burns that require immediate medical attention. This showerhead is quite expensive, but it has an attractive style and it's convenient to switch from the initially focused stream to the pressureless pause mode. until the final rinse. I only use two or three settings on my WaterPik shower head even though it has many more modes. In fact, two modes is all I really need. The Waterpik shower head looks bulky while the Delta shower head looks sleek and much more attractive. Despite the warning about hot water burns, I like the medium pause mode because I don't like the water flowing at full force while I'm just lathering my body with soap - wasteful. And the rinse mode at the end has a wide jet, useful for the last rinse to remove soap. And you can start the sequence again if you want. Just three button presses to quickly step through the entire sequence. Update: My wife hates this shower head so I took it off and bought the same shower head we originally used. She says the only position with significant water flow is directional and the diameter is too small to be useful. I totally agree with her. Therefore I do not recommend this shower head - my neutral rating is therefore only based on the optics and the water comes out of the shower head. Our Waterpik is at least ten times better and half the price. Recommended details below. I haven't used either yet, but I would buy these. Read ratings and reviews.
