AquaDance3316 High Pressure 6-Setting 4" Chrome Face Hand Held Head with Hose for The Ultimate Shower Experience Officially Independently Tested to Meet Strict US Quality & Performance Standards

Why did I wait so long to purchase a new shower head!

Got this to replace an old shower head that broke. It works well, and installs easy. It works well for my low flow well water, which is what I was concerned about. Not all the spray patterns available will shoot out the water strong enough, but there's enough that do. Just be careful screwing on the "bracket" that holds the shower head. I read other reviews saying that this can easily break if screw it on too tightly, because it is plastic. I proceeded with caution, but I guess I still tightened it a little too much, because it started to get a hairline crack. I backed it off a hair after that, and it works fine.

can not review they want too much

Okay, so the designer box was not so fantastic. It was smudged with finger prints that wouldn't wipe off. If it were a gift I might have been embarrassed. (Ok, I wouldn't but someone might)Now, for the nitty gritty.It's nice looking, shiney chrome plated (plastic of course). The handle is light weight which is helpful if you've got any limitations in hand strength.Installation was easy following the 1 page directions sheet (which was written in English, with full sentences & clear illustrations. No IKEA stick people or poorly transcribed foreign language to English here) I had no problems what so ever, which honestly is saying something.I'll admit, this feels cheap, very cheap. Upon first feeling it I considered sending it back. Then I thought about the fact that my current unit is several years old & I'm pretty sure I bought the cheapest one on the Walmart shelf. May as well throw this one on & see how it works right?I'm actually quite surprised! This thing really sprays! It's like I brought the garden hose in & turned it on high. (My house has good water pressure to begin with so I was surprised by the difference from my last shower head!) The water actually hits the back tub wall, well until I get in & stand in front of it which I'm dying to do. As advertised, it's got several different settings including pause. They all seem to exert equal pressure.Overall I'm pleased with this shower head & would recommend it. If it falls apart in a few months that will obviously change things but I'll be sure to update you! Until then I'm saying go ahead & buy it. For the price it's definitely worth it.

Easy to install

This shower head is very light weight. Extremely functional. Has much higher pressure than our old shower head. Recommended.

Bought mine in brushed nickel finish. It seems to be a reasonably good quality plastic, which I have absolutely no problem with because from three feet away it looks like metal, and matches nearly perfectly with the existing brushed nickel (i.e. metal) escutcheon plate on my wall. Installation was a snap and directions were clear. Comes with a small roll of Teflon tape which I did not need. Once you pull out the flow restricter (you'll need a pair of needle-nose pliers for that gyration) the water pressure is very good. The plastic restricter broke in two pieces as I was trying to pull it out; a minor annoyance, but not significant enough to dock this review even a half-star. No leaks anywhere, and the flow hose the unit comes with also appears to be of good quality. The reason for my four star review is simply that although the installed unit (and stream of water) can pivot through a small angle, I prefer in my shower to have the flow directed nearly straight downward (so that I can stand at the other side of the tub and shave) and this was simply not possible with this unit. Even at its maximum "downward" angle the flow was pointing too close to the shaving end of the tub.

I like it. It's so nice to have a more flexible metal hose than the plastic one that was always getting twisted or so unyielding to where I needed it to be. The shower head even fit my existing holder (hanger), hence there was no install needed. I just screwed one end of the metal hose into the shower head and the other end into the shower head hanger, and slid the shower head into the existing hanger. Don't forget to insert the included rubber washers inside both ends of the shower hose before you install it. As for the shower head itself, it's wider than the ones I've been using for years. Wider but not heavier. In fact, it seems lighter. I like that. The settings work well, and go from a fairly wide fine mist to a consolidated stronger narrow spray. It's easy to switch from one to the next by just sliding the lever on the shower head.I am 5'9" and it sits high enough above my head so I don't have to stoop to wash my hair. My existing hanger is about standard height, due to the fact the faucet pipe that comes out of the wall is a typical standard height. The shower head doesn't sit above my shower curtain as some have said it did theirs. I think my curtain is at a standard height, too. And with my kind of shower hanger I can bend it down an inch or more, for shorter folk. But that depends upon what kind of shower hanger you have and the height and angle of the faucet pipe that comes out of your wall.
