Tools and Hardware Reviews of Waterpik TRS 529S/20009490 Elements 5-Mode Showerhead, Brushed Nickel
Customer Review: Excellent!
Summary: 5 Stars
We were on vacation on Miami Beach and got to try this showerhead in the common area for the pool - much better than most since the Government mandated lower flow rates. Most won't even let you wash the soap off without having to scrub it off.
Thinking if a five-way head was good, six would be better, I tried the Waterpik SM 623 Original 6-Mode Massage Showerhead first ... same company, pretty much same settings - the massage worked well, but the two other settings that spray, one didn't have enough pressure, the other was so narrow you could not get ALL of you wet at one time - sent it back, ordered this one.
The massage is worthless on this one, and as others commented, so is misting. However - the reason we bought it, you can actually take a decent shower under it. Lots of pressure once you remove the screen (as suggested by the instructions). I also removed the 0-ring in the little recess behind that screen - used a dental pick, but you probably could use a paperclip bent with pliers to do it too.
With the one regular shower setting, there is plenty of pressure - in fact, you need to turn down the water a bit or the force actually stings a little! Now, instead of 1/2 to one hour showers trying to get the soap off, you can go back to 5 minutes ... doesn't matter a bit that only the one setting works, it's what we bought it for!
Highly recommended - provided you remove the screen and O-ring. Note also, it doesn't come with Teflon tape - so even though the instructions say you don't need it, I did use it, and must also suggest you get you a roll (dollar or two at WallyWorld) and use it when installing.
We will be purchasing a couple more later - one for the other bath, and a spare.
Customer Review: Serves the purpose
Summary: 4 Stars
The showerhead serves my purpose. I have changed four heads in 6 months due to hard-water problem. This one lasted for 3 months and still going on. There is nothing fancy about it but it does what it is supposed to do. Misting spray is something new and if you never been to tropical areas and experienced rain-droplets pouring for three longs days due to low-pressure, you might try this. You may or may not like it but it will be different. Other functions are the same as any cheap showerhead would produce.Customer Review: High pressure shower head
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this and a matching high pressure hand held attachment. After removing a few pieces in the shower head it really works well, with nice high pressure.Customer Review: Shower Head

Good preasure in full spray, nothing else. Feels plastic and I bet it won't last. I am going back to Siroflex. Best showerhead made.
