Does it have a shut-off valve like the other low-flow heads? (I cant see a toggle, but perhaps it is push/pull?)

It looks like you can now buy the High Sierra Showerheads model with the "trickle valve" here on Amazon, as well as on the company's website:A handy single page that displays all of the High Sierra Showerheads products sold on Amazon, including trickle valve-equipped and handheld models:http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=bl_sr_hi?ie=UTF8&field-brandtextbin;=High+Sierra+Showerheads&node;=228013

Great shower head, but no shut-off built into the head. I have 3 of them and all installed on Delta 3-way diverters which allow me to switch between low-flow, hand-held, or both. The shut-off in the hand-held can be used to 'pause' the water during a shower.

There is no shut off valve. you can buy one separately.It screwson before the showerhead.

It SHOULD, but it doesn't. I bought two of these heads and two small separate Danco Shower Head Shut-Off Values that were not expensive. The shower heads are great and the shut-off valves do the job fine.

This particular one does not have a shut off valve, there are other models on the high sierra website that do have the shutoff valve though.

The push button on the handheld changes the spray levels on the interior shower head. It is not a shut off button.

No, it is only a diverter valve. It goes to one port or the other port, there is no closed or off position.It is a very well made diverter, heavy construction and will last for many years.

Ours is in the body of the faucet only. The pull out head does not activate the on/off function. This is a fantastic faucet in the kitchen; our only concern now is a "drippey" head? We have soaked it a couple of times in a "cleansing solution" but head still "drips" along with flow when "touched on" Foster 3/13/14

Pretty much is on & off. Flow is pretty slow anyway, what is the point of going slower. What I did, was just drop the head in the bucket of water if for any reason I wanted to stop. for example, running to grab something I had forgot. But the on off button was easy access too

It does not. Typically you will see people putting a ball valve on the out put side to allow you to control the flow rate. You should be able to find example pictures on the Internet hope that helps

Yes it does, that is the what the 2.5 gpm rating is specifying (as not to exceed 2.5gpm). The button is not intended for regulation, it is intended for shutting "off" the flow (less a trickle, for indicating that the water valve itself is still on) for ease of use by those with disabilities. That is why we by them for our facility, high use, durable, and inexpensive to replace. (Facility Director)

1. Yes! There is a toggle button. 2. Vertical but the nozzle is wide so it's a good stream

Its a slide, you can slide it to several different sprays. The switch does not shut the water completely off. It cuts it down quite a bit. The reason is, if it shuts it clear off you would have to readjust the water temperature again. I really like the spray head but the hosethat goes with it very stiff and I chose not to use it. I had one that I had from before and it was a better hose.

It does shut off when you stop spraying. Disregard the other comment that indicates that it stays on. It pretty much maintains a fairly consistent PSI that you can set. When you stop spraying, and start, there is a mildly larger burst of PSI than the usual steady flow. Nothing that I would consider a problem though. This thing is worth every penny. I highly recommend it!

Yes. It is a quarter turn valve that can be positioned closed, fully open, or anywhere in between to control the water flow. It will stay where you put it until you move it, no springs or anything to bring it back closed automatically.

Yes it will shut the flow off completely. Sadly my unit only lasted 6 months before it failed beyond reasonable repair. Very sad for an American made product.

No and yes. There is no switch, but you can twist it until the flow is so restricted that water won't come out the nozzle end--except for the constant leak that mine has. I use a shut off valve prior to the nozzle. Don't buy this--it sucks.

There is no shut off valve, rather you have to turn the pressure dial all the way off in order to stop the flow. one other bit of advice, don"t put the pressure too hard as it can damage fillings, etc. I love this product, but you must be careful when using it.

Not sure. I turnrd on snd off three times to assess pressure and the valve broke off in my hand. I wasn't forcing it either.

Within the head is a sliding valve that you move with thumb and forefinger. It can be used to regulate the flow or totally shut the flow off.

Yes it does, just installed it and works perfectly. As another reviewer said, just remove the small nozzle piece. I was able to pull it off without much effort or tools. Flow is perfect as described in other answer.
