Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

It was truly awesome at first, high volume and pressure after removing the restrictor. The colors were cool and knowing when my shower was ready made my days more pleasant. Wife loved it too. Then it happened. About 3 months in it started at first with just some random squawks to give you a little fright first thing in the morning while your eyes are closed and you're vulnerable. Within a few more weeks it became longer squawks and squeals with intermittent periods of peace offering little windows of relief to your ears. I tried to fix it, messed with threads, cleaned it in CLR, replaced the o-ring. I failed. By the time it was 6 months old it screeched non-stop without reprise, only the short even louder and higher pitched barks interrupting the constant, otherwise monotonously grueling, screaming right next to your head. Having been past viewers of the tv show about anatomy somewhere between black and white, we named our showerhead - McScreamy. McScreamy could not stay, he woke up my wife in the morning and drown out her tunes in the evening. We took baths to avoid him. Eventually we bought his replacement, we don't love it like we did McScreamy at first, but it's ok, and it is less likely to cause hearing loss. We sent McScreamy to live upstairs, where my nearly teen boys had seemed to be taking longer and longer showers of late. They seem to be getting in and out a lot faster these days and since I can hear McScreamy downstairs, across the house, or even outside, I always know when they get in and out so I can ensure they aren't wasting water. Maybe this was all my punishment for removing that restrictor :(
