Tools and Hardware Reviews of Waterpik CF-201 Cascadia Dual Mode 8-Inch Showerhead, WhiteCustomer Review: Nice Rain Won't Last Summary: 3 Stars
I owned this for about a year and a half before the plastic mount cracked at the base and would no longer support the shower head. Here's a summary of my thoughts after ownership:
Pros:
- Very easy installation. Compared to other shower heads I've installed, this was one of the easiest considering its bulky design.
- Rain effect is relaxing, but not too impressive.
Cons:
- Flexible arm does not hold the heavy shower head in position after about 6 months of normal use. Repeated adjusting may damage the plastic mounting.
- Rain effect does not rinse soap off very well while showering. The second setting helps with this, but produces more of an uncomfortable sharp needle effect.
Overall: Shop around for a better model this one has some quality issues.
Customer Review: Definately Worth It! Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this about 2 years ago because of its rain feature. Last night the hose finally gave way and I came online to buy a replacement. Though I never had a problem with mind, reading the negative reviews about its flimsiness made me nervous about buying another one online. I decided I'd look for it in store. Then I read on Amazon that it comes with a 5 year warranty. Though I can't remember where I put my receipt - its been 2 years, I decided to call Waterpik. The gal on the phone took my information and said I should get my replacement in 7-10 days!! The call took less than 6 minutes. She didn't want proof of purchase, etc and told me to just trash the broken one! I spent a little under $30 when I bought it, and now I get a new one for free!!
Customer Review: Breaks easily Summary: 1 Stars
I have purchased three of these and all three failed about the same time. It works great at first, and the toggle switch is easy to use. I really enjoyed the experience of having the water fall down on me like rain, and the adjustable arm is maneuverable enough to raise the shower head fairly high. Unfortunately the housing is cheap plastic and breaks easily. I didn't even move the showerhead after the first couple weeks and left it in the same position all the time, but on all three showerheads, the plastic housing broke at the point where the white meets the adjustable arm, and leaked. On two of the models, the adjustable arm failed and would fall down and no longer hold up. There are better and stronger showerheads out there.
Customer Review: It's made a big difference! Summary: 4 Stars
I live in an apartment and have a TERRIBLE water heater! I could barely take a 5 minute shower w/o having to jump out before I froze to death. Even though I tried turning the heater up, It still didn't make much a difference. My fiance and I registered for this shower head, and got it as a wedding gift. We love it! It saves so much water that we can now both actually get showers, and be able to enjoy them. I would definitely recommend this one. It hasn't drooped at all either. The only thing I would maybe change about it would be the pressure. We went from having very hard pressure to just moderate. I wouldn't trade it for anything though!
Customer Review: It might be drenching if you were a leprechaun Summary: 1 Stars
But if you're a normal-sized person, this is nothing like the "Sunflower" (can-type) drenching spa showers. My home has great water pressure and terrific water flow, and using this showerhead is like standing under a VERY gentle summer rain (definitely non-drenching)---it doesn't even deliver the same water flow as my normal showerhead. Go for a slightly more expensive option, like the Pegasus 8" sunflower. I gave it a fair try (it's been in for months now), but this showerhead is not worth even its modest price; although my husband is kicking up a fuss about his installation labor, I am taking mine out and installing a different showerhead.
