No life guard on duty. Shower at own risk.

Awesome shower head. Works great with our tankless water heater, but traditional water heaters may struggle to keep warm water flowing. This thing dumps water like crazy, has to be minimum of 9-12gal per minute.  The one star deduction is for the fact that the head hold a crazy amount of water and ends up dripping into the next morning, even when tilted down to drain.

The installation instructions are lacking.  When doing the research and planning for our total bathroom renovation, I had to contact them to find out where to plan for the supply lines; it's not explicitly stated anywhere (put the supply lines in the right-hand side, facing the unit, same side as the control panel).  Apparently they expected you to have the unit in hand first so you'd know.
The e-mail response answered my technical questions, but flatly could not explain their horrific BBB rating.  We took a risk and bought the unit anyway.
There are NO provisions for securing this unit to the wall; I find this astounding and an astonishing lack of a fundamental safety feature.  Fortunately the top piece has a flange that we could at least run screws through, but the unit is not designed to be secured to anything.
The walls are FLIMSY, even once installed.  We ended up using spray foam to stiffen up behind the walls, which took a lot of cans.  Highly recommend you spray the backside of the walls BEFORE you install.
The chrome finish is obviously plastic-y in person.
The hand-shower handle is very flimsy and actually came apart on us; we had to glue it so it would stay together.
The drain is a positive; there is a built-in removable screen.  It clogs up quickly, which is actually a good thing - when the water stops running out, you know the screen is clogged and it's easy to clean quickly (better here than in your drain).  We used the provided expandable drain line and ended up having to add an extra vent line to help improve drain flow.  Rigid standard plumbing is definitely recommended, but the expandable line worked for our installation.
There are large bumps on the floor, for a nice anti-slip texture.
Once we got used to the control panel (which one is the hand shower again?), we liked the separate controls from each other and the overall temperature knob.  The pictures are small and quickly fogged over in a shower, so you just memorize which one is which (eventually).  Warning, water in the lines will be cold whenever you first turn on a feature.
There is a rain shower, which is tiltable; a hand-shower which can be adjust for position and height; a powerful foot massager (too powerful for my ticklish self); and 8 body-jets, also positionable.  The body jets look like they have loads of nozzles, but actually only have 5 per (all the rubber nubs are deceiving); but it's still a nice functioning feature.
Storage is minimal, but that is clear and inherent to the design.  We added a small wire suction-cup basket and a couple suction-cup hooks to fill our needs in addition the built-in shelf.
Do NOT drop anything on the hand-shelves (mini-ledges next to the butt-shelf below the back-waterjets).  We dropped something from the upper shelf and it cracked the corner of the shelf below.  This is fiber-glass, and isn't tolerant.
The unit as a whole looks fantastic, and all of the features were fully functional.  It is a great feature to our bathroom, but I would point you to keep looking for a higher-quality unit and pay a little more.

So far...after one shower...I LOVE this. Easy for this female senior citizen to install all by myself. I used to have to run around in the shower to find the spray and get wet! I wish I had thought about replacing it years ago. Could not be happier

How do I communicate with vendor/manufacturer?  This does not balance pressure; it's either full on or off.  $500 + and I don't have this working correctly.  What can I do now.  We have a drought, so I don't want to waste water nor have a shower that's bombarding me with full pressure.  To replace the plumbers will have to re-solder 4 pipes!  I'll have to pay more.

Squeegee my shower door until I die. This baby gets the trick done in only 4 sweeps. I get done with a shower and then it's only 4 naked squats until I'm able to walk up out of there care free and into the tasks of the day. So glad i found it.

No shower hose or way to Mount the shower head and it stop working the day we installed it. Most of the reviews were from people that were paid to give the reviews. Very unhappy as this was b day gift for my son.

You use this in the shower.

Naked.

...and the other person won't have a clue.

Enjoy your new power.

This thing is my jam.

It also plays music.

Come the Apocalypse, first thing on my list is this damn mirror. I don't know how to shave/trim/tweeze w/o a mirror under running water (shower.) Seriously I can NOT function w/o this. I actually take it with me on trips.

As others have stated, this is a very comfortable life jacket. But be advised, this is a class lll PFD which per coast guard requirements is only suited for calm, inland water ways where rescue is quickly available. This PFD may not be suitable for your experience level while white water kayaking or rafting. The PFD rating of this device should have been included in the product description. Only after receiving the product and reading the accompanying booklet (required by the coast guard) did I realize its rating. Quoting the coast guard manual: "Wearer may have to tilt head back to avoid going face-down. Will not hold the face of an unconscious wearer clear of the water. In rough water, a wearer's face may often be covered by waves. Not for extended survival in rough water."  Also note that this vest has no head flap to protect your head if you end up going down river backwards or hold your head above water should you get knocked out. Please read comments to this review and decide for yourself if this vest is right for you.

Ugh, our shower pressure is so bad now (after only a couple of weeks) that we're removing the filter. I was in the peace corps and I was lucky enough to have access to a shower there-- my shower at home is about the same right now due to the filter.

I have emailed the manufacturer to see if they will uphold their promise of a lifetime rustproof warranty.  This was purchased by me in 2012 and the inside rod is totally rusted.  Only one person showers in that bathroom, its not like a big family bathes/showers everyday.  This is so disappointing.  It was difficult  to install in our tiled bathroom, drilling holes in ceramic tile is hard.  And now it is rusted and has to be replaced.  Try matching up those holes.  Its going to be fun.

I will start by saying I was incredibly excited for this product. We have very hard water that had been causing itchy patchy rashes all over my body. It was the same with my daughter. She had begun to get terrible rashes that would turn to sores. So I bought this product. It was great when I first got it. I've had it for 8 days and it no longer works. The description says to replace the filter every 8 months but why bother when it barely lasted a week. I've taken it apart trying desperately to fix it but I can't even figure out what wrong with it. Lets start with some pros of this product.
1. It works great (when it works) the itchy patches calmed relatively soon after the first use.
2. The water pressure was nice
3. You can feel a difference in the water by feel and smell.
Thats about where this list stops for me as I only used it about a week.
Cons
1. It only worked for a week and now it doesn't. (that means I got back to the old unfiltered shower head. So looking forward to the rashes again.ugh)
2. Depending on the person the water pressure can actually be too much. I can't wash my face in the shower anymore because it feels like needles on my face. Not even going to try using it on my daughter.(i fill her baby bath tub with the shower head as the bath portion doesn't have a filter.) Its one step down from a power washer.
3. The water temperature is weird. I have to turn the hot water up to wash my body as the water cools very quickly about half a foot down from the shower head. I then have to turn the hot water back down to wash my hair or risk scalding my scalp.
4. Because of the weird water temperature it absolutely does t save energy or water. With this showerhead I run out of hot water much faster.
My family can only afford luxuries like this once every 6 months or so and I'm really disappointed that it doesn't work. I was stuck between 2 good shower heads and I chose this one. I wish I had chose the other one instead. I had really high hopes for this one and now I have to go through the tedious process of returning it. I wish I had read the negative reviews instead of just buying it because of the great reviews.
UPDATE: I have been contacted by their customer service representative and they are sending a new unit out to me. The overall interaction was really pleasant and I feel like my concerns were addressed. I anxiously await my new unit. I really liked it overall and would love to have a unit that works well.

I went off the reviews of folks who were filling tubs and taking showers with this unit, but did not realize that it is only meant to raise the water temperature by 20 degrees. If you start out with a reasonable water temperature of 60, then you're only getting 80 degrees. Not hot enough to take a shower. Perhaps the reviews that I read were for a beefier unit. But the 0.5 GPM AE-3.4 Powerstar Bosch is only sufficient if you want to wash your hands or perhaps face.  Completely useless to me now. I had to rip it out and replace with a standard tank water heater due to the fact that any larger electric tankless heater needed a 240 volt connection.

Purchased a brand new Iphone 6 and a brand new Lifeproof case for my son, installed the case immediately upon receiving his new phone. Within a few days of having my new phone & Lifeproof case, his phone now has a fogged camera lens. He took his phone with him in the bathroom to listen to music while he showered, a friend had called him and he decided to answer his phone, considering it is a water proof case one would not hesitate to answer. He placed his phone back on the counter, continued his shower and once he got out he grabbed his phone to check it and noticed there was water inside the case. The water damage did not harm his phone to the point where it no longer can make phone calls or texts but his camera lens is now fogged to the point that he cannot use the camera. This is a BRAND NEW iphone 6, and a BRAND NEW Lifeproof case that guarantees protection from water for up to 2 hours! It was not submerged, it was not dropped, it was not resting in a puddle of water. It simply was answered with a wet hand, and placed back on the counter. Now i have to go through his insurance and pay a $175.00 deductible for damage done to the phone that should have deemed avoidable considering the extent we took to protect the phone.  ***DO NOT BY THIS CASE***it does not grantee water proof for up to 2 hours. It couldn't even handle water exposure for 20 minutes, i don't want to see what 2 hours of the device being submerged would do to your phone! I will be returning it to get my money back definitely!

I had this alarm for over two years and pretty much forgot about it. At 3:30 this morning I was awoken by a beeping sound. My sump pump died and this gave me the warning I needed to swap it with a spare before flooding.

OMG! I thought that I would never need these urinals.  They are great for emergencies and there are no restroom facilities.
