    I’ve never found these more appealing than a good single adjustable angle wall mounted spout with decent pressure. For the life of me I don’t know why anyone would want a single ceiling mounted “rain” head. I think those are the worst.

      I talked a DIYer out of installing a rain head on a stall shower–one of those that are about 3 feet square. I told him to imagine taking a shower where you couldn’t get out from under the water. You’d need to turn it off to lather and then turn it on to rinse. It was for a guest bathroom. He thought it was trendy and cool.

      Ugh yeah trendy hotels are into these rain water things and it’s just annoying. I’d be more into this pressure washer though.

      Yes like being drowned. And I don’t want to get my hair wet every time I shower! Stayed w my brother, he had an overhead shower like that and I thought my hair would mildew, it was always wet.

      The wall mounted spout for daily washing, the rain head for washing your hair and for a warming, relaxing shower when you get home cold.

      As someone who rocked a rain head … yeah totally. I also still had a ‘normal’ shower head on an adjustable flow valve. lol

      … though the pure rain head wouldn’t have been too terrible. My hair is like 90% of what takes direct flow to clean. Asscracks etc aren’t ‘that’ bad to wash via finding the right posture and waiting a few moments for enough water to find its target.

      … I am fully willing to admit my opinion may change drastically in 30 years when even a leaned over posture becomes a PITA.
