1.0 out of 5 stars Lousy pressure, December 30, 2009

Water pressure is pretty lousy, even once you remove the modulator. If you shut off the handheld entirely, the fixed head gives you sorta decent pressure. But I would avoid this product if you're looking to use 2 sprays.

2.0 out of 5 stars Good water pressure from fixed head, leaks and poor water pressure from handheld, August 3, 2008

By 

KCWM (Texas) - See all my reviews

It could be that we purchased what ended up being a defective item. I used pliers to tighten the bit that connects to the water pipe that stems from the wall. Regardless of how tight I screw it on, or whether or not the rubber flow ring is on, it sprays out the back of the head.

On top of that, the hose that leads to the handheld shower head leaks even worse. I've tried reversing the hose and tightening the hose. This leaks is by far the worst. It sprays down onto our soap.

As for water pressure, when using the "standard" setting, the fixed head has excellent water pressure when you have it on by itself and when you have both heads on. The handheld, on the other hand, has poor water pressure by itself and even worse when it's coupled with the 2nd head, which is the whole point.

The other settings for each head are horrible and unusable. If I hadn't lost the receipt, I'd take it back to Target for an exchange. Since I do not, it's going in the trash as completely unusable.

1.0 out of 5 stars Horrid plastic junk. Stay Away!, February 25, 2010

This product is the worst I have ever purchased from Waterpik. It is ALL cheap plastic, even the pipe-end fittings. The "massage" setting is anemic even with great water pressure and one of the showerhead settings should simply be called "suddenly spray me in the face." The handheld end does not have a swivel built in to the end of the hose, so you will be fighting with the hose trying to twist the handheld part out of your hand while showering. In addition, the hose off-gasses some seriously noxious plastic fumes. After about two weeks I was starting to get nauseated showering and tossed the hose into the back yard in a fit that I had spent so much money on this crappy thing! Stay away from this "chrome" (plastic) version and the "brushed nickel" (plastic) model. We have one of each and they are both equally awful!
