The water pressure at my house has never really been that great. With the basic shower head I had it took me forever to get the shampoo out of my hair and suds off my body. With this shower head I am able to shower so much faster! Plus, I can clean my shower so much easier. I normally has to have a bucket or cup to rinse off of the walls, not anymore. I am able to use the hand held sprayer and rinse the entire shower. On top of that, I can give my dogs a quick shower without having to run a bathtub full of water or using a cup to rinse them! I can’t believe I never invested in one of these but I am so glad I have one now! We are replacing the other shower heads in all bathrooms with these!
