Can any shower head/hose can fit into this holder or only what ever comes with it will fit? is it rust proof

I have had it since a year and it looks beautiful and works very well. I have used a normal shower head and hose of different brands.

As far as I know, yes it can hold other shower heads. The only thing to watch for is how it sits in the holder.

It seems to be somewhat of a universal holder. I have my old American Standard shower head an it fits as well as the original holder. This does not come with a shower head or hose. I woul guess it would accomodate most brands of hand held shower heads.Unlike the American Standard slide bar, which had plastic mounts and holder, this unit is all chrome plated brass. This is a very high quality shower bar. I highly recommend.

It seems to be a generic fitting that will fit many shower heads. I had another head and wanted a better hose. It works great. It is SS and should not rust

I found the Moen T2701 fits well, along with any compatible Moen valve one other note: I found the rod of this shower head assembly, along with the hose coming out at the bottom, too tall to mount vertically above the valve since I built a new shower - no problem, I positioned the valve next to the rod, centered to the water direction valve at the bottom of the rod, where the hose attaches there is supposedly also a shorter version available, presumably better for retrofit

No, it doesn't and don't waste your money as the holder is made of cheap plastic and the weight of the shower wand causes it to slip off the holder constantly. Mine crashed into the shower wall last month and shattered into a zillion pieces. Culligan will not help, nor amazon. Do not buy unless you want a lot of headaches.

HI Linda, The shower hose is a heavy duty commercial like plastic hosing. It's thick and has not kinked up once for us since we have been using it. It's nice that its not metal as it prevents rusting. = )Irish Carter

We bought for our bathroom where we all shower. It's steamy and we've had for a year with out rust. I'd never put in the shower or spray it with water every day. LOL.

If you already have a shower pipe sticking out from the wall you should not need anything else. I would say try it with and without the flow restrictor in place to see what works best before permanently mounting. You would use the existing hot/cold valve(s) to control temperature. This unit just allows you to chose between the fixed or hand-held shower head or a combination of both.

Yes. I have waited for along time for a expandable shower caddy and thought that this was the perfect one. Big disappointment since it rusted within a month. How can something that goes in the shower can rust so quickly?? I tried to return it, but it was too late (over a month). :(

This hose holder is made of steel. It has a powder-coated copper finish with green patina.

You can use it with any shower head. All plumbing is standardized, so you should have no problem putting it up. Just make sure to use pipe tape on the threads to stop leaks.

I have mine in a standard 1/2 inch thread shower head. If your hand held shower screws on the top where a standard head goes, it will work fine. Very good product. Recommended.

The holder seems to be made of some perhaps galvanized metal, not plastic-coated. It is exposed to moisture all the time because I use it for draining flatware after washing. There are no signs of rust.

I bought mine especially for my bathroom, completes it nicely. Only had it for 9 months...but it hasn't rusted at all

The faucet head is metal. Standard size for mounting hole. Can be mounted either side or in front.

Kingston Brass KS266SN Victoria 3-Inch to 9-Inch Wall Mount Tub and Shower Faucet, Satin Nickel is the one we purchased and plumber had no problem attaching it to our antique clawfoot tub. It might not be the one you are looking at. We have had ours over 3 years and it still looks like new - we love it.

Hi, will this fit onto a standard shower hose, like one that comes with a bath tub taps/shower hose combo? For instance, if I had a shower head (like a normal hand holdable one) and I unscrew that, will this piece fit onto the end of the hose? My hose is female, standard shower heads are male. If not, does a converter exist? Do you have the measurements of the fixing (are they standard SI)? I'm not worried about the positioning of the head thereafter as i have a ball joint bracket on the wall for the current hand held shower head, which means the head can be fitted to flow in any direction.

The switch and handheld shower holder seem to be plastic. On mine it blew water everywhere and I had to buy a replacement at Lowes.
