Tools and Hardware Reviews of Waterpik TRS-559 Elements 5-Mode Handheld Shower, Brushed Nickel
Customer Review: Need to remove both regulator and the debris filter to get full blast of shower
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased 2 of this showerhead based on average review of 4 stars.
When they arrived, they looked very nice and the showerhead itself looks to be very expensive metal, but the cord felt cheap (rubber). After I installed them, I got less water volume than water comes out of my lavatory faucet. I read many other's review by removing the regulator to increase water volume.
I unscrewed it, found the regulator, and removed it. (I thought it was the regulator, but actually I've removed the debris filter first) The water increased but not to my like. So I went back to the unit where I removed the filter and found the actual regulator and removed it as well. Bingo, the water volume is just right at the level I felt like taking the shower.
Risk for removing the filter: the debris from your water line will not filter and might end up on your showerhead openings which eventually will clog the openings and reduce the water volume in the long run. You have to either clean the openings or buy another one.
Overall this unit worth every penny spent: the quality, the style, the look, and easy to install, and of course the PRICE is right.
Customer Review: Nice for the money
Summary: 4 Stars
This works well. The cord is long enough and the water pressure is adequate. I really only care for one of the settings personally, but that is entirely up to the individual. Very nice for bathing the dog or cleaning the furnace filter.Customer Review: Nice long cord, very elegant looking
Summary: 5 Stars
I ordered this in the Brushed Nickel version and although the massaging feature is weak, I really do like most of the settings. I have a very large stand alone shower stall so it's nice to take this off the wall and spray down the entire shower with this very long cord. I think the massaging feature would work better if I was to remove the flow meter that comes pre-installed to reduce water waste. The instructions are detailed on how to do so, so if you like a true shower massage, this may work for you by increasing the amount of water flow.Customer Review: No PAUSE feature
Summary: 1 Stars
Description lists PAUSE, but there is no PAUSE.
its not listed on the package I received, either.
I ordered this because I wanted a PAUSE feature.
Would have returned it, but the old one was broke
and needed something in the shower.
Customer Review: Not as good as old model.
Summary: 2 Stars
The spray force is too low even with the low flow device removed and the hose is a foot shorter than my old Waterpik which lasted ten years till the hose broke.Not a happy camper with the newer model.
