DELTA FAUCET5-Spray In2ition Dual Shower Head with Handheld Spray, H2Okinetic Matte Black Shower Head with Hose, Showerheads, Handheld Shower Heads, Magnetic Docking, Matte Black 58480-BL25-PK

First thing out of the box what I noticed is that it's almost all plastic...for a $135 shower head...really? I realize that there are a lot of shower heads that are way more than $135 but I'm sorry if I am going to pay $135 for a shower head, it needs to be made out of better materials...shame on you Delta. I was always told how great Delta was, maybe they're coasting on a reputation. The hose for the hand held was outstanding, a real quality hose. It's metal outer and had some stretch to it. It also had a little heft to it and bent really easy.The main reason that I didn't like it and sent it back was because it leaked terribly and did not have good pressure. In the attached picture, I have an arrow pointing to the area the leaked. It was more of a spray than a leak. it was even spraying over the shower curtain. The water was coming out of that joint in about 4 places. I tried to tighten it and it made a minor difference but there was still a lot coming out and I was really cranking on it, was afraid that it might break.I attribute the low pressure to the leak as well. Maybe without the leak, the pressure would have been okay. When it was on the setting that was the large outer ring only, it worked well but I didn't care for that mode only. There was a big empty space in the center without water. The mist mode work also. All of the other modes were weak.Amazon's return process was lightening fast. They emailed me a paid return label, I boxed it back up and sent my daughter to the UPS store. Amazon sent me an email within about five minutes of my daughter dropping it off at the UPS place indicating that they had just refunded my money!

I regretted spending money on this shower head before the water restrictor was removed. The water pressure was low like a sprinkle and not worth the asking price. After water restrictor was removed it was a night and day difference. Enormous amount of water flow and pressure. The magnetic handle/shower head combo is very nicely designed and integrated. Overall, extremely satisfied after water restrictor was removed, it actually does have the massage effect. Special thanks for the top reviewer that called out the removal of the restrictor.To some of the other reviewers that complained the paint was pealing off....well, the "chrome" version is usually thin layer of shinny chrome plated on top of plastic. Solid chrome would probably be too heavy for shower head/wand. Maybe the stainless steel version is 100% solid and not plated, but anything plated will eventually chip/peel overtime.Another reviewer mentioned water restrictor in the hand wand - I only had to remove the main one and the water pressure was already extremely strong. The water pressure from the wand matched the pressure from the shower head so I'm not sure what he removed was a water restrictor or something else. Maybe he had a different model, either way I was happy when the main one was removed and didn't want to use a drillbit and risk damaging the wand.Overall installation process for me was almost as simple as screwing on and off a light bulb. Just needed to add plumber tape to the thread, screw it on, tighten it with a clamp and it was done in 5mins. Hope this helps.

I got this for my master bathroom where my wife and I never agreed on what type of showerhead to get. I prefer the wider ones, while my wife prefers the handheld ones where you can detach it from the wall. This is the best of both worlds... one unit where we are both happy.Installation was quick and easy. The unit is very solid, and impressively built. The button and switches are sturdy with a positive 'snap' to them. The showerhead is held in place by a strong magnet which works very well.As for the water pressure, I've installed countless showerheads over the last couple of decades... I can't remember the last time I saw a showerhead without a restrictor designed to reduce the flow of water. Years ago they use to explain how to remove them in the installation instructions, but not anymore. This showerhead includes one as well and is easy to remove (see attached photo)...1) Remove the swivel adapter (AKA ball fitting) from the back of the wide sprayer by unscrewing it.2) Inside the swivel adapter, you will find a rubber washer with a metal screen filter... remove it by prying it out, but be careful not to damage it.3) Behind the rubber washer/filter is the lavender-colored flow restrictor. Push it out from behind (wider end of the swivel adapter). It may take a good push, but it is only held in place by friction.4) Replace the rubber washer/filter and reinstall the swivel adapter.This procedure is completely reversible. Also be aware that removing the restrictor will increase water usage as well as power usage since your water heater will have to work more.Overall, one of the best showerheads I've ever used, and easily the most convenient.

I bought this specifically because we wanted a handheld option, and I really wanted to be able to pause the water when shaving my legs to avoid wasting water. It worked pretty well for awhile, although it became harder and harder to change the settings over time. After less than 18 months, the small "metal" piece on the bottom that changes the water settings broke off. Turns out it was plastic. The quality was lower than I would have expected/preferred. I reached out to their customer service, so let's see what happens.Update: Delta customer service replaced this immediately upon receiving my complaint.

I upgraded to this shower head a few weeks ago and am really impressed. There are a lot of options for how to change the water flow and the hand held being mounted with magnets works really well. Only issue was that with the restrictor in it the pressure was just far too low, however once it was removed the pressure was great!So here are some tips.It does not come with teflon tape, so buy yourself a small roll (1/2 inch is fine) and use it wrap all connections to ensure you will not have any leaks.If you like showers with higher pressure, you will want to remove the restrictor plate before installing the shower head. Fortunately It is very easy to remove. First step is to remove the rubber o-ring that has a mesh in it. I just used a pair of small needle nose pliers and pulled out the seal. Be careful not to damage it. Second you will need to remove the plastic water flow restrictor. I found the easiest way to remove it was just to use a wine bottle opener. Twist it into the plastic and when you have a grip on it pull the restrictor out. That is it! Now put the rubber o-ring back in place and you are ready to install your new shower head. I have attached some photos showing how to remove the restrictor plate.

Spent the money to upgrade my old Delta in2ition showerhead to a more modern look and function in this black one and the old one I had was so much. The water flow being 1.75GPM is awful to try and shower off shampoo or soap. Even having a plumber install and fix the leaking issues still means the connection joints to the shower arm and the hose readily leak. The magnet is not very steady and I can see this failing in the long term.

I really like this shower head. However,I had to take the water saver out because I didn’t have great water pressure. Once I took that out shower is way better.

What great shower head! Love the pressure and the feel. The only kicker is the colour is a bit dark. The Delta "champagne bronze" family is varied. We went with this shower head instead of the Delta 58569 model due to it's proximity in colour to the rest of our champagne bronze fixtures and feels way sturdier than the model previously mentioned - for taking off/putting back on. It's mostly magnetic!

I purchased it from warehouse deals with a description that it was an open box but in actuality the shower head doesn’t work. Be aware they are actually selling defective items. Very disappointed.
