1 YEAR REVIEW: Good but not great in low water pressure.

It's been 1 year and I have to say I don't like it. This is normal but not great in our low water pressure application. Like most showerheads, it's made of chrome-plated plastic - it feels a little light, but it's unnoticeable once installed. My main gripe with this is that it doesn't work well with low water pressure. You would think this is the case since its holes are smaller than many. It sprays water well and produces clear streams of water (no dripping), but the power behind it is almost non-existent when your house is low pressure. I'm sure at high pressure it's similar to pin pricks, which can also be undesirable. Too bad, I still really like the look. It's hard to complain about the price, but we also installed a slightly more expensive model from Hansgrohe, which gives it a better feel. If you have a low pressure issue I suggest looking for models that add air to the water as it exits, this really adds volume and makes the flush more efficient.

Pros
  • Cool
Cons
  • Almost everything is fine
