hansgrohe Raindance Select S Hand Shower 120 with 3 water-saving sprays (EcoSmart), matt black, 26531670

Brilliant, 3 settings. Best shower head I have bought that didn't cost an arm and a leg

Brilliant performance surpassing all others!

Bought this to replace a Raindance Select E 120 3 jet (the squarer looking one) which I've had for around 5 years or so. Like the 'E', this Raindance 'S' version also has three showering modes which amount to 'standard rain'... 'light rain' (which on this model, they call 'powder rain')... and the three 'twirly jets' which are the same on both. I have to say, bit disappointed with this 'S' version and much prefer the previous 'E' version. The standard rain mode on the 'E' had a heavier rainfall due to larger openings on the spray nozzles. The light rain on the 'E' (which I never used) is almost the same as the standard rain on this 'S' (hence the disappointment)... and Powder Rain is very very light as each nozzle has three tiny outlets (you can barely hear your shower running in that mode). I imagine with our fairly hard water, these Powder Rain nozzles will need clearing on a daily basis! And like all Hansgrohe shower heads with the twirly jets, they will jam up and stop rotating within a few months. I've had a number of those over the years and they all do the same and are nigh-on impossible to get going again once they lock up as they're not serviceable. I guess it's all personal preference... but if you like your shower head with a heavier spray pattern, the 'E' is the one to go for... but if you like the soft drizzle effect, this is definitely the one for you.

This shower head has single-handedly upgraded my bathroom from “functional rinse station” to “five-star spa I don’t deserve.” The water comes out in such a perfect, even spray that I half expect dolphins to leap through it in slow motion. The “Select” button is basically the remote control for water: press it and you can switch spray modes without looking like you’re wrestling a garden hose. One mode is gentle and soothing (perfect for pretending you’re in a shampoo commercial), another is powerful enough to blast away the sins of a weekend barbecue. Installation was idiot-proof, which is good, because my DIY skills usually end with me phoning a plumber in tears. Instead, this went on in minutes, and I immediately considered cancelling my gym membership just to spend more time in the shower. The only downside? Showers now last twice as long, and I may need to start budgeting for a higher water bill. Worth it though—nothing says “I’ve made it in life” quite like a shower head that makes you feel judged for ever owning the cheap plastic one.

Love the settings on this handset. Has elevated my shower experience

This is a high quality, functional shower head. It is easy to fit and gives an invigorating shower experience.

This new shower head has improved our shower experience hugely. Would really recommend it.

Works as it should

Bon rapport qualité prix

Felt just like any other normal shower head. Not too impressed by its modes. Don’t consider it value for money. Item received like it had been opened before.

Showering experience has really been good with this rain dance. Note that the water will be a lot softer and slower, not what I’m used to but it has helped me to slow down, enjoy and relax. Easy to fix in as well, I only use the rain mode and not powder rain as it is too weak for me. Great buy during prime day!
