I needed a taller shower head when I moved in because the original was about chin high.  This provided the perfect hight for me.  I also wasnt sure when I ordered it that the head would pivot at all but you can point it in any direction you want and it will stick like that till you move it again.  Without the provided water pressure regulator, this thing is like a high powered hose with how strong it can be.  Even with it it provides great pressure unlike some other rain shower heads that have no pressure at all and take forever to rinse off with.  So basically if you have weak pressure as is this should provide a solid boost for you.  Ive had tons of different types of shower heads in my life and this is honestly my favorite ever.  Will definitely be taking it with me when I move again.
