The AquaDance Rainfall Combo showerhead features two showerheads that each have six settings. It can be used overhead or as a handheld head with an easy tool-free connection.
Most notable upside: We found the AquaDance showerhead to deliver excellent water pressure with an easy installation process. The power setting is also impressive, especially for those who have a lot of hair to rinse. Both heads have a pause function that allows you to save water while soaping up. We also enjoyed that the main showerhead can mount on an extender arm for a rainfall effect overhead.
Biggest downsides: The material looks less upscale than similar products on the market, but we found that looks can be deceiving because it still performs like a high-end showerhead, so this wasn’t an issue.
The SparkPod Shower Head has a high-pressure rainfall effect with luxury chrome material. It even includes 90 anti-clogging jets to remove hard water deposits that can form over time.
Most notable upside: We loved that the chrome-plated SparkPod adds a touch of elegance to the bathroom and looks more expensive than its price tag with its beautiful design. We found that the SparkPod will allow you to feel drenched and makes it easy to rinse off quickly while all soap is thoroughly removed.
Biggest downsides: It would be helpful if the SparkPod showerhead was more vertical and included a pie extender to help to raise it more, but this is a minor issue, and it’s still worth the purchase.
As a high-pressure shower head, the WASSA product stands out for its self-cleaning nozzles and parts have a lifetime guarantee. It delivers powerful pressure and is both lightweight and durable.
Most notable upside: We thought the WASSA High-Pressure Shower Head was a wonderful choice. Built with 45 silicone jets for an excellent shower experience. It’s tiny and weightless but delivers better water flow than most showerheads offer. It only takes a few minutes to install to experience a soothing rainfall in the shower. The water also sprays in a focused area to prevent it from spraying on other areas in the shower or bath.
Biggest downsides: It only has one setting, which may not make it an ideal purchase for everyone. For those who know what they enjoy, it’s worth buying.
