I've never found these more appealing than a good single adjustable angle wall mounted spout with decent pressure. For the life of me I don't know why anyone would want a single ceiling mounted "rain" head. I think those are the worst.

    Yes like being drowned. And I don't want to get my hair wet every time I shower! Stayed w my brother, he had an overhead shower like that and I thought my hair would mildew, it was always wet.

    I talked a DIYer out of installing a rain head on a stall shower--one of those that are about 3 feet square. I told him to imagine taking a shower where you couldn't get out from under the water. You'd need to turn it off to lather and then turn it on to rinse. It was for a guest bathroom. He thought it was trendy and cool.

    As someone who rocked a rain head ... yeah totally. I also still had a 'normal' shower head on an adjustable flow valve. lol

    ... though the pure rain head wouldn't have been too terrible. My hair is like 90% of what takes direct flow to clean. Asscracks etc aren't 'that' bad to wash via finding the right posture and waiting a few moments for enough water to find its target.

    ... I am fully willing to admit my opinion may change drastically in 30 years when even a leaned over posture becomes a PITA.
