 Works as advertised! October 7, 2008
I have a old style hot-cold variable pressure bath/shower setup and this showerhead works perfectly.
The amplifying effect works realy well even at lower pressure.
With the lever in the up (1.85 gpm) position with the water turned on half-way the amplifying effect feels like a good hard rain with about a 15-20 degree spray pattern (a great basic shower with a gentle scalp massage).
With the water turned up full, lever in the up (1.85 gpm) position it feels like a very hard rain with about a 25 degree spray pattern (a wind-blown-rain spray and a pretty intense scalp massage).
With water on full and lever in the down 2.5 gpm position it's like torrential downpour with about a 25 degree spray pattern (a large water droplet skull and full body massage).
 One of the best shower heads I've experienced October 3, 2008
This shower head is definitely worth the money. You can see the difference between the high and low setting but you don't really feel it that much, so leaving it on the low water saving setting does a great job still.
The Rime of the Ancient Shower Head (Abridged) September 28, 2008
24 out of 28 found this review helpful
Day after day, day after day,
We bathed without emotion
As boring as a dripping tap
Just draining to the ocean
Not hot nor cold, could be controlled
Our shower was the worst
It either kept the water in
Or loosed it in a burst
"Twas time, it was, to make a change
"cos this old one is cursed
[The purchase is made, the Delta Amplifying Shower Head is installed]
We put thread tape around the threads
And tightened easily
And from the first the torrent burst
And filled us all with glee
Water, water, everywhere
Much easier than you'd think
Water, water everywhere
Drops big enough to drink
Ah! Well-a-day! What happy looks
Had I from old and young
Our ancient cross, our Albatross
Into the trash was flung
Farewell, farewell, but this I tell
To thee my dear house guest
If you should stay with me today
Our shower is the best.
Pros:
1.Aesthetically pleasing
2.Lifetime Warranty
3.Easy to install - only thread tape needed (not included)
4.Uses less water without sacrificing pressure
5.Has two settings - the water-saving 1.85 gpm and the high volume 2.5 gpm
6.Water pressure feels more powerful
7.Spray holes don't need cleaning
8.Affordable, and great value for money
Cons:
1.People don't want to come out of the shower - ever! (Can cause chronic lateness)
2.Now I have to go buy these for every shower in the house

A fine alternative to the "rain shower" low flow heads September 23, 2008
I purchased two different <2 gpm showerheads in the last month in a quest to save a little money by cutting down my family's hot water usage. Speaking just to this one, the Delta, the first thing I did was cut the top off a 1-gallon water jug and used a stop watch to confirm the flow. It took about 35 seconds to fill up the jug on the low flow setting which works out to about 1.7gpm - real close to the published rating. On high flow, it took around 21 seconds, which calculates to 2.85gpm.
IMHO the low flow setting is sufficient for me, including rinsing the shampoo out of my hair. I have replaced a 4.0 and 3.0 gpm showerhead in my home now and I would say the quality of shower experience is about the same with the latest generation of "amplifying" showerheads as I felt I got from the old high flow heads. My only complaint is that the cheap showerheads never include teflon tape, you have to use your own (if you have it) or buy a roll for a couple bucks at the hardware store to ensure a leak-free connection.
Works very well, looks good September 22, 2008
We replaced our shower head after it had become all stopped up with water deposits.
This shower head looks good and performs well.
At first I was wondering if the little lever that controls the shower head was working, but it does. There are basically two positions, one for low flow and the other for medium flow.
The low flow feels "economical" as the water is just enough to take a shower (however you'll be happy your saving money on hot water).
The medium flow has reasonable power which is for people who like a strong shower or if you've had a muddy day outside and you really want to get cleaned up in a hurry.
A few minor observations is that the shower head can give off some strange noises that sounds like a dog moaning - I expect this to go away as sediment coats the inside of the shower head.
Another observation is that when you screw this shower head on your shower, there is no "knurled" surface to hold onto, so you really have to do it by hand. However, I only lightly screwed the shower head in, using new teflon tape on the threads and it didn't leak at all.
If you get really close to the shower you can feel all the little pulses of each shower head. Whatever amplifying this thing is doing is for real. The shower head really makes the most of the flow.
So, I would recommend this shower head without reservation. We will probably save money on hot water, and enjoy the great performance of this shower head.
