Experience the gentle buildup of a warm summer rainstorm in your shower. This showerhead is designed with a water reservoir that relies on gravity to shape individual drops that replicate rainfall.
Is it expensive I’d say so.
Is it extravagant Probably.
Is it worth it Maybe.
Will it make or break your bathroom Doubt it.
But is it cool Yeah - it’s pretty darn cool.
I paired this with the DTV control system in our newly renovated bathroom. Placing this (giant) shower head smack dab in the middle of a 66x66 steam room.
The gentle rain is NOT ideal for washing your hair or getting soap, etc. off your body. But it IS ideal for just taking a moment to breath, relax, and ponder about how you spent 75k on a bathroom reno and all you got was this lousy shower head (just kidding, about the lousy part).
The rain drops are truly relaxing and the center area devoid of drops makes staying in the middle a treat. No worrying about drowning or gasping for breaths during the intermittent drops.
The deluge function is nice as well. The initial drop tends to be a bit cooler since it usually sits for a moment (but isn’t cold) and is quite refreshing. I find it lasts 7-9 seconds on average. For us the distance to the control panel is a bit of a reach, so I have to say ensure 100 you can stay in the rain when you’re pressing the valve button (or digital button). It’s more enjoyable if you can have the full 8 seconds instead of missing the first 1-2.
Installation wasn’t too difficult beyond having to drop the ceiling 4 inches and frame a 20x20 box for the shower heads recessed base. Post tile install - the shower head snaps in and overall isn’t too difficult to open for cleaning of the filter. (Though that in itself is just another thing to add to the ever growing chore list.)
Yeah so all in all, for 2k (ish) - I’d buy again. If I was paying retail (4k), I may have been disappointed, especially if I planned on using this as my main shower head.
