Aqua Elegante High Pressure Shower Head - 2.5 GPM - Polished Chrome

Having just received this item as a replacement I installed it with consummate ease within less than I minute, I really did appreciate the free issue of plumbers tape which I also used, a nice gesture. My system benefits from a direct water feed and therefore have really good pressure and having tested the fit I am well satisfied with this nice bit of kit which does the job perfectly and really good value for money. However I noticed that many other comments on this item referred to the need to remove the water control mechanism and was looking forward to see how, if at all, it made any difference to my shower experience but contrary there were no instructions how to do this, despite the many comments they were easy to understand. Can anyone help?

Looks very neat but you will need to remove the flow restrictions for low water pressure just remove the mesh and remove the white plastic disc with pin nosed piers and replace the mesh filter

Easy to fit and it works effectively. Narrower head than I expected but provide a good concentrated stream of water in the shower.

With the restrictor, the flow was a bit.. meh. As soon as the restrictor was removed, it was a lovely flow of water. I'm all for large rain heads, bit with lower water pressure in the upstairs bathroom, the 9 and 6 inch shower heads weren't cutting it at all. This smaller 3 inch head is fantastic, I'm so pleased! Easy and quick to fit with the included PTFE tape, highly recommended!

Only a slight improvement with an indirect plumbing system.

Our old shower head was looking tired and so we replaced it with this product. The system is gravity fed and so we removed the flow restrictor as suggested in the instructions. A little bit fiddly but nothing too difficult. The unit threaded onto the old pipe using the PTFE tape provided and we have had no problems with leaks. It was easy to do this just by twisting it on the pipe threads by hand which is good because you don’t want to scratch the shiny chromed surface with a wrench. Once fitted the ball joint means that you can move the head easily and it is a big improvement on our old one. All very shiny and gleaming and works well..

I tried a 4 inch five position head first and it was a disaster, low flow and just a waste of time, I knew what was needed but finding one that fit the bill was/is hard but thankfully having seen the reviews on this and the design, it fitted the bill of what was needed. Take out the flow restricter as we have a whole house 3 bar pump that took about a minuet and then screw it on, result- perfection....... You can move it out of the way so you can soap yourself and lather your hair before it all gets washed off and then move it back and pop under it, the spray is just right and it comes out with power unlike the so called rainfall heads, all in all it is a great shower head and well worth the £20 to get a decent shower head. What it would be like under low pressure I do not know but with a pump it is great.

The shower head is fine. We have limited water pressure so a smaller head has helped a little. Good quality product

For those looking for a decent, inexpensive shower head with a single spray, this is one I would definitely recommend. Installed without issues, no leaks, decent pressure, and provides a good shower. Most importantly for me, it has a wide swivel range so it works well in various baths/showers, even smaller enclosed stand-up showers. It was exactly as advertised.

Poweful

This shower head improved my shower experience by genuinely improving the flow. Nice strong jets of water.

Poca presion,

Good product,
