DELTA FAUCET FAUCET 5-Spray Brushed Nickel Shower Head, DELTA FAUCET Shower Head Brushed Nickel, Showerheads, 1.75 GPM Flow Rate, Stainless 52535-SS

Absolutely fantastic. While shower head preference seems to be a highly, highly personal matter of taste, this head hits all the right buttons for us. It has a relatively broad spray pattern and has a few other modes for a stronger, more targeted spray. They are all easy to switch around using the lever on the back of the shower head.I first found this Delta head on a Wirecutter review. I concur with their findings 100%.Life Rule #1 - For the things you use or touch nearly every day, pay up for whatever it takes to make you happy. It’s money well spent in the long run.Fortunately, for a great shower head, you don’t have to pay up very much. Highly recommended.

I switched to this low flow head and I'm happy I did. I'm was in the camp that believed low flow heads just end up making the shower longer, and the bad ones do, but this head rinses just fine.PROS:1. Super easy to install.I unscrewed the original head and put the new one on in about a minute.Because of plumbers tape, I needed no tools. I was inebriated, which shows how easy it was.2. The tilt on this head is super good.I have no problem changing the angle with little effort.3. The spray options are actually useful.I often ignore all the pulse and other head options, but a few make sense.The slow /stop is great for pre-warming the output before going full.The tight hard spray is good for pounding parts like the scalp or backside.The wide spray is my standard, and is soft and nice. Steams/mists well too.Switching modes is also easy, and it's not a hard lever at all.4. The sale price I paid $50 was a solid deal in my opinion.5. The look is pretty nice, though you can still sort of tell it's plastic.CONS:1. Not a biggie, but it is plastic and doesn't have a solid feel when you adjust it.However, what would stainless cost and would that attract more hard water?SUMMARY:For the price I paid, and features that work, I've been enjoying this immensely. Maybe I'm actually using the same amount of water, because I'm staying in the shower longer to enjoy it.FYI: Some report that this head doesn't have good flow. I have 60 psi and it works fine. Homes with 45 psi or lower probably shouldn't be using low flow anyways. I can still do a 3 minute shower in this just fine.

I read the NY Times Review, like a lot of others. I bet sales have been good because of that. When I saw "chrome", I assumed it was metal. No wonder the price was so good. That's on me, though, because it says it is made of plastic in the product description. I didn't read it carefully enough. So I have the chrome finish, on plastic - but who knows? Maybe in the long run I will have less trouble with mineral deposits.I will say, however, that I like a powerful flow in the shower, and this didn't really have that, at least "as delivered". I had to un-install the shower head, take out the flow restrictor, and re-install it. I could not pull the flow restrictor out with needle nose pliers, so I had to drill it out. Now I find the flow satisfactory, but it still doesn't give me quite the power of my old shower head.Time will tell - how long it will last... It looks good.

Having over 55,000 4 1/2 star reviews, I was very excited to try the SparkPod. My experience was the antithesis of the reviews. I could barely get warm water--and it would go from cold to hot as it I had too many people taking showers at the same time (there weren't). And--there was very little pressure. I was about to engage a plumber but decided to try another brand. I chose the Delta #52535--and it was as different as night & day. Fantastic water pressure & I even had to turn the hot water down. I am absolutely thrilled with this showerhead!!!

Far superior to our previous "low flow" showerhead. This not only provides several spray options easily selectable with the back lever, but also an "almost no flow" setting to allow for soaping up, etc. The more concentrated spray settings give us much more pressure at the same overall volume as our previous showerhead, so rinsing shampoo and soap is much more satisfying.

I have purchased 2 of these Delta shower heads ,both had nozzles that were not open to have water pass through.When I purchase a brand name product I don't expect to have to make it work properly after I install that product.I could of returned both shower heads and waste more of MY time which is a NO win for me. Not great quality control

Excellent water pressure and multiple spray settings make this showerhead amazing. This was wirecutter's number one shower head and it makes sense. It was easy to install.

Upgrading my son’s bathroom from its lovely 1980’s decor and bought this for his shower stall. It looks so nice and the quality is very good.
