I was surprised at how heavy this is, and how big.  2.7 pounds and 4plus inches diameter.  It is definitely a big hunk of metal.  Fairly simple with choice of 3 sprays.  handle glides smoothly.  gives a drenching spray.   This was touted in a review I read as something one could not do without (wrong!), but it is a nice showerhead.  Assuming it will last for my lifetime, the price is right, but there are cheaper alternatives out there that will give you a fine "experience."  Other than the price, I find nothing to complain about.
