5.0 out of 5 stars 1.5gpm showerhead works great - good power, March 19, 2009

My wife and I have been using the High Sierra Showerhead for about 3 weeks now. We have reccomended this product to our friends. This showerhead offers suprising power for only 1.5gpm. My wife has long hair, and the showerhead offers more than sufficent force to wash the shampoo and conditioner out of her hair. When I first tried it out, I was skeptical that is was actually only 1.5gpm, because it felt like more. The water hits you in the chest with good power.

The showerhead looks like a regular old showerhead at first, but when you look straight at where the water comes out, it has an odd shaped opening. It looks like a little mouth. From the packaging that the product came with, this opening is part of the special design of this product.

The showerhead is small, but it is heavy. This would indicate to me that it is made from quality materials. Some other showerheads I have used are lightweight, and you just know that they are not made to last.

I cannot comment on the clog free claims the product makes. I have only used it for 3 weeks. However, you can see that the water all comes out of one hole. The water just sort of explodes out of the hole to make the shower pattern. The problem with other low flow showerheads is that the water comes out of lots of little holes. These little holes slowly plug up over time. Their clog free claim makes sense, but time will tell.

I found a video review of this product that I thought was kind of funny. I agree with this guy's assesment of the product.

I live in the desert where water is a precious resource. For conservation reasons AND to lower my water bill, I decided to replace my showerheads. It's hard to determine the "truth" about a product without using it, especially a product like a showerhead. So I turned to the Customer Review feature at Amazon and was convinced by what others said about the High Sierra Showerhead. Also viewed the little video mentioned by Reviewer R.Lee. I purchased two.

Now I want to add my public praise for this product that truly lives up to my expectations.

Product arrived in a couple of days.
Installation was easy; no plumber's tape required.
Water flow feels like a normal shower.
I like the turn-off valve on the showerhead that allows you to reduce the water flow or turn it off completely.
I also like the fact that the product has no plastic parts, as I have been reading negative things about how plastic promotes bacterial growth inside many showerheads.
Customer Service: Great! There is a real person at the other end of their "Contact" icon on their website.

For me, this is a 5-Star product. I hope my comments help you.

My wife and I were completely amazed with this shower head product. I have worked in the construction industry for many years now and have never seen a shower head or plumbing product that reduces water consumption, but yet, gives the impression that more water is being released. I highly recommend the "Low Flow Showerhead" from High Sierra. It is convenient, innovative, and worth it's weight in gold!
