I needed the strip but decided to change everything in my shower. This new shower head and handheld shower Is really nice looking. the water flow is excellent. The diverter works perfectly.
I'm shorter than 5' so the slide rail is a plus. Not to mention the complete unit installed look quite handsome in my shower. It's like a mini face lift.
I was a little skeptical buying a "waterpik" showerhead. My son is my plumber he said for the price, try it. Now that we have installed, he was quite impressed. I love the height slider bar (shorty) and different settings. My husband loves everything about it
