does it cut down on the flow of water through the shower head?

No, unless you run it for a long time. I find it not powerful enough, but convenient as I have no counter space. Needs better instructions.

There is no noticeable reduction in water flow or water pressure even with two shower heads in operation.. Love this product.

Not significantly noticeable and I'm sensitive to the water flow in my shower. I also agree with one of the comments K Hemard wrote; it's not as powerful as the countertop types. It's more convenient if you don't have counter space, but don't expect it to be spectacular.

yes, it does allow you to control the flow of water. it is near the tip of shower head. it works great, warshing stuff, and transferring water from one container to another when you have a limited power source.

Yes. It decreases water pressure to both, but they will work at the same time.

No it is a steady constant stream. You can even use it while water comes out of the shower head.

Yes. It completely cuts off the water supply when the water temp hits 120 or so. The problem then is you have to wait sometimes for a couple of minutes for things to cool off enough to resume your shower, which can be a bit of an inconvenience if you just lathered up a good shampoo, and the water cuts out. I ended up removing this shower head for a conventional one.

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.

Yes it does. Take note that this showerhead greatly reduces water pressure.

It does produce a decent rain flow feel, and is designed to enhance the strength of the water flow through an oxygenating process. While it definitely makes a difference, it won't perform the miracle of turning a low pressure shower into a torrent. In our house it made our lowest flow shower perform acceptably with a large rain head.

No, and personally I had to remove a flow regulator in the other part of my shower pipe because after a couple years of use, it gunked up and severely restricted flow. After removing that, the water pressure is pretty high, which is preferred by everyone in my house other than me, but before it was just a trickle.

No. But you could just get a restrictor to install behind your existing shower head.

It does if you have the faucet fully open. reduce the flow to solve the problem.

When in the position that allows both the hand held and shower head to spray water...YES If position on only shower head or only hand held, I don't notice any pressure loss

If I had to swear, I would say that I probably noticed a small drop off but not enough to affect my shower. I had a plastic one before that was not 100% shut-off and it slowed the flow more. This is an excellent product and I highly recommend it.

No, the water flow will diminish. However, you can switch ends that you put the hose in each time you water and it works out pretty well.

I would say no. The Off switch doesnt actually shut the water off it just lowers the flow to a steady trickle I use it all the time useful for getting a nice soapy lather without having to shut the shower off.

The pressure is not dependent on the shower head. It's dependent on the water pressure of your home. That said, this provides thin narrow streams. In short, this is not one of those "simulated rain" shower heads. Much cheaper and simpler.

Not too much. But it stopped completely when I angled the shower head slightly to hit the curtain. That keeps it out, where it's supposed to be.
