Have found another brand that was very difficult to turn from regular showerhead to hand held. Any comments?

I know that brand. I had trouble with that too. This is a better quality brand and better functionality.

I love this showerhead. Switching is very easy, as others have said. A great purchase.

I have this Ana Bath shower head, and I find it to be very easy to operate--better than other brands I have used when visiting friends. I love this shower apparatus!

Very, very easy to switch between the shower head and the hand-held head. Also, very easy to change to different spray patterns on the heads - a simple flick of a finger is all that's needed.

Oh this one is MUCH better, I love having the option to use either OR both, the valve on the side lets you select the shower head, the handheld, or BOTH AT ONCE! And you can set each one to different sprays independently as well when using them together. I'm disabled & use a shower stool and I very much recommend this one for ease of use and quality!

Hi Kenzo, shower heads installed directly to your shower pipe are always going to be stronger than hand helds. It won't be a significant amount to the shower head but you'll be running water through a long hose before it gets to the trigger so it will not be as strong as the fixed shower head. Hope that helps. :)

Lack of on/off on the showerhead is an issue if you are in a water-scarce place, like when camping in the desert. I should have paid closer attention to this point and have returned the device unused. I'll use a compressed-air water sprayer and sink sprayer-head.

What you want to get is the Delta 75152 shower head!!! I have low water pressure and this is the only one I found that gives you a strong water pressure.

From your description, it sounds like you have a diverter attached to your shower arm (the curved bar that comes out of your wall) and that one is going to your shower head and the other going to a hand shower with a shower hose, which is the most common setup when you want shower head and hand shower combined. Does it have a knob or lever that lets you switch between the two? See if it looks anything like these: http://www.amazon.com/U4922-PK-Universal-Showering-Components-Handshower/dp/B0064TXLHA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1397325994&sr=8-1&keywords=shower+diverter http://www.amazon.com/Danze-D481350BN-2-Inch-Diverter-Brushed/dp/B002BSHSE0/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1397326036&sr=8-4&keywords=shower+diverter If so, then it should be fine. These shower heads fit the standard threaded 1/2 inch shower arms.

Both have the same features, but 4920 also allows you to mount a hand held showerhead in addition to a regular showerhead .Instead of having to mount the hand held on the shower wall

I have two different versions of this model and I'm very happy with them. If you just flush it might not release a full force of water. If you hold the hand down, however, it seems to provide much more force of water. Try holding it down. You could also call American Standard and talk to them for some advice.

I installed mine several months ago. It is the ultimate in shower fixture engineering. To switch between hand held and shower head is a single smooth twist of the left handle. Once you get your preferred water temperature set you only have to use the left handle to turn off and on. Best thing I have invested in.

I'm not familiar with the Niagara brand showerhead, but I can tell you that the Zoe handheld shower bracket is working great for me. I've had it about a year and it is rock solid. I bought it because I was fed up with replacing the plastic ones all the time. The Zoe is super solid and wont break on you!

Dear Teresa,I wish I could help you, but we own an Inn and also have a couple of personal properties. I cannot remember which shower head this is.Best,Denise

Diane, do you mean the pipe sticks out of the wall at a 90 degree angle? If so, then any shower head should work. They all swivel. Your decision will be what type of spray you prefer. Shower heads with the massage features are nice, but generally use more water. I live in California, and we are in the midst of a serious drought. I like this shower head, because the flow doesn't feel as restricted as it does on other models. I hope this helps.

I have a delta hand held unit and it fits great and you can have it spray while in the slot. Makes for a nice dual shower head setup that way.

Yes the hand shower can be replaced with a hand shower from a different brand. The hand shower has a 1/2" connector same as most of the hand shower on the market.

I have a hand held shower too, but there is a pipe that comes from the wall. I unscrewed the hand held shower head from the pipe in the wall and just screwed in the Rainshowe'r filter and then screwed in the hand held shower to the filter.. it was very easy.. and I am a woman and did this myself..

No you cannot, unless you want to unscrew the shower head each time to put on your hand held unit

The Home Basics 5 Function Twin Shower Heads are in my husband's shower so I asked him your question. He says he does change the options by turning the faces. He says it's not the simplest thing in the world to get them to turn but he kept working on it until they did. If you can't get the faces to move than you might consider returning the fixture to Amazon as it may be defective. Good luck. Hope you can get it to work .

I have one in each of my bathrooms. Works well for me. I wanted to have the option of detachable but the feel of a regular shower head. The cord length is not the most aesthetic look and it can get in the way of shower caddy so I found a caddy that is split at the top and this works. Good luck.
