- The Sears hand-held massage showerhead was top-rated in Consumer Reports a
- year or so ago, and I bought it. I've been pleased with it. The only
- drawback is that it is "low-flow", like most (all?) new showerheads are,
- which means that not much water comes out (a horse could pee harder). But,
- there is a little washer you can remove to open the pathway and increase
- the flow. I took that washer out. I also took a drill and reamed out the
- couplings at either end of the hose, since they were more than thick enough
- for strength: I assumed correctly that they were thick in order to restrict
- the flow. Now the thing delivers a decent jet of water.
-
- The massage setting provides acceptable vibrations, and the general shower
- setting presents a nice group of little jets. It's well-designed.
