 The best low flow shower head out there September 12, 2008
Rottvan (Richmond, California)
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
I purchased one shower head two months ago to test its performance. Too my surprise, I cannot notice the difference between my old 2.5 gpm shower head and the new 1.5 gpm. My frist experience with low flow shower head was in the 90's. Those were just mist with restricted water flow. Water was never hot enough. For the Ecoflow, I specially like the water flow control that allows you to save more water depending on you need. It works so great I have purchased another one already.
I have also researched other models as well, like the Labybug. It auto shuts off water once it reaches certain temp. That does save as much water as having the abilty to control water flow while maintaining the same temperture.
In summary, if you want to save water and not compromising on the shower experience, this is the one.
The best low flow showerhead I've found yet! March 4, 2009

I was a little concerned when I ordered this showerhead because of a few bad reviews, but once it arrived and I gave it a try, any concerns I had were gone. I still have a hard time believing that it's a low flow showerhead. The water stream is great, it's easily got twice the pressure of the other three low flow showerheads I've had in the past. This one's a keeper!
Love it! October 15, 2008

I think there must be several slightly different products out there, all called the same thing. But the difference in construction translates to significant result-differences. I have a model bought from Home Depot that is all metal -- not plastic. And it works great. No sagging, properly aligned, etc.
I find the water pressure to be great but it so happens that without the restricting shower head, residing as we do at the base of a hill we have *huge* water pressure just ordinarily. So by the time water pressure gets cut down by this device everything is still most satisfying for us.
I enjoy the 5 water-style settings and also a feature that allows you to cut the water flow almost altogether while lathering. This works very well for us for additional water savings. It's actually more comfortable to lather up your hair this way than step out of the shower altogether as this way you get a trickl of warm water on the rest of your body; it's nice!
There are 5 water-style settings: mist, oulse, regular sprinkle, gentler pulse, broad-ring of water sprinkling. No name for these on the insert, so this is just from memory. I find these spray patterns are significantly different (to my surprise) and do offer a difference that's valuable.
We have been using the device for two weeks; it's possible the novelty will wear off but so far I'm enjoying the variety of sprays a lot.
We also own the version with a hose that disconnects, good for children. I believe the unit can be bought fixed to the wall. The additional convenience of the removable handheld shower head seems worthwhile to me.
Be careful which unit you purchase; it does seem that there is no distinguishing numbering system to differentiate wall-mounted, hand-held, plastic, etc...
Works well, plastic but what isn't for this price July 25, 2009

I grabbed this when it dipped in price and feel it was worth it. Flow rate is good for a 1.5gpm rating and for a handheld low flow there aren't a whole lot of other choices and most cost more. I have the Delta low flow non-handheld and like it, and this one offers a more trational spray as well as the Delta style micro-spray. (wife needs the hand held on her shower so I was glad to finally find one eco friendly)
Consumer reports gave it a decent ratings as well, but added the caveat that as this (and all the low flows they reviewed) is low flow it rated lower then the 2.5 gpm on feel. It shouldn't take a rocket scientist to figure this out either that if you are moving from a 2.5 gpm to a 1.5 gpm it will likely be initially noticeable, but hopefully it will be as noticeable on your utility bill as well. Consumer reports also said it put out slightly more then 1.5 gpm but not much more.
As some of the other reviewers have said this is a model made of plastic. But really for [..] bucks what isn't these days? My five star rating considers it against others in this price point.
Edit: Have used this for a bit now and when combined with a switch to microfiber bath towels (lowers drying times on a gas dryer) I have noticed a difference in our monthly gas usage of about 3 to 5 cf per month. Wife said she noticed the difference in flow originally but didn't think it was that big of a deal.
Pays for itself in water savings... October 17, 2008

3 out of 4 found this review helpful
I live in an area where water rates are high... With a family of four, our new house with excellent water pressure came with a water bill that was four times that of our previous house, which was in a different water district. I found my water bills to be over $100 a month higher than my previous residence. I can't cut all my water usage, but the showers were an area where if I could save a gallon a minute, it would add up quickly. My washer is a high efficiency unit, so that cannot be improved upon...
I searched for water saving options, and wanted to stay with a shower head that would allow for handheld use. I have 4 full bathrooms, and initially purchased this unit at Home Depot, which cost me $53 dollars with tax. I expect to say at least $10 a month with the one unit alone, more than likely $20 a month, but at any rate, it will pay for itself in a matter of months. Amazon, with free shipping saves you $10, by offering this at $43, a quicker return on investment.
This shower head is made of plastic materials, which most are, and I see no issues with the construction. Installation is made much easier with this showerhead, which comes with its own tool for installation. After removing the old showerhead, this one should only take a matter of a few minutes, if not less time. With fewer parts needing to be joined together, the possibility of leaks is less. I look to see more installations like this one in the future.
4 people showering daily more than likely amounts to 25 - 35% of my water bill... If I save $10 a month, I'm ahead in less than a year... And we only have one environment to protect...
