I purchased this with the extension arm. None of the connections fit eachother. Should the showerhead have come with a swivel head?

The swivel head should be built into the shower head as shown in the second photo. If it doesn't match up then you may need to have a replacement sent since it could be defective.

I didn't have a problem with the connections fitting. It doesn't swivel much but will go up and down.

I had a handy man do the installation for me. If you try it on your own, you will just need to unscrew the old shower head and screw on the new one. The little piece that came along with the shower head-it will go inside of the head. Sorry, but this is all the information i have right now. If you examine your old SH,and look at the new SH, you will find that it will be like putting a puzzle together. Let me add, even if there is just a pipe extending from your wall; the item can still be made to fit. You will just need another tube/pipe.

Mine will swivel however with its large shower pattern I have never had the need to adjust it., This is far and away the best shower head we have ever had.

Yes, it does. The shower spouts are at two different angles though, so you will need some hose or something to adjust the second head to face forward.

Be advised that if you have an older shower with a ball joint at the end there is no way to make this shower head fit without an adapter. I just received this shower head and now I'm on a needle-in-a-haystack multi brand search for the correct kind of adapter.

It depends. The weight of the shower head may require some wall work for proper bracing. Also id your current shower head isn't connected right at the wall, but rather inside of it, you might need a connection piece. Any parts needed are cheap, but if you need wall work that's a different story.

This arm can be tilted up so that it will able to be shortened that way but the shower head will also be higher. if You lower it then the arm will reach out but the shower head will be lower because of arm is lower. It works for me.

Looks like it is designed to hang from ceiling or an existing arm. I don't know about adjustable shower arm

You can tilt it backwards or forwards, and swivel it a little left/right when you make your height adjustment. If you lean it too far forward, the shower head could probably fall out of the holder clip.

I bought a different shower head and a swivel extension piece, which added a few inches. I'm sure you can find a straight extension at your local hardware store to achieve the desired length. Don't forget to use plenty of Teflon tape on the threads.

The shower head swivels on a conventional ball-joint type mounting connection. It can be adjusted in any direction desired.

I agree with the other respondents. A shower arm extension is not necessary for this shower head, but if you must have one, then make sure that it's not too long and that it is made of a solid metal (material) to support the weight of the Thunder Head Shower Head. It's weight comes from the large saucer head, but the additional weight comes from the built in extendable parts, making it easy to extend the shower head. This is the reason that I agree with the other suggestions, that no extension arm is necessary.

It comes with a swivel fitting like a regular shower head so you can use a straight or adjustable arm, and no flow setting but the better your pressure the better it works

My husband removed our old shower head and put this one on. I did not see him do it, but I do know we did not have to buy anything additional. Hope this helps! We really like it, by the way.

Got to a hardware store and get an extension for the water pipe that connects to the shower head. I got one that is adjustable and it works out great.

My package came with a small, metal ring threaded on the inside and outside that fit a standard shower head on the outside and the shower riser on the inside. The ring also appears to be directional in that it only worked (didn't leak) when screwed onto the shower riser in one of the two orientations.

Showerhead does come with straight arm. No settings. Has good swivel range. Water pressure is like rain a effect.
