Once I got it working properly I really enjoyed the various settings. The massage really is powerful and feels great. You do have to be careful to contain the splash though because it is so powerful. It's a shame that the swivel joint is plain gray plastic as opposed to the great looking chrome head and it would be nice if the hose were a little more supple. As a massaging shower head though, it works very well. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
