I do the same Steve, which reminds me, I probably should do that again sooner than later.

Our water sucks when it comes to deposits, what can I say.

Enough pressure to bruise your hands perhaps?

To be honest, it's almost enough to cut my old man skin that I've suddenly developed.
It does feel good to blast my back when it's hurting though.
I hate those new shower heads that offer a 'rain drop' type of flow. Water dribbles on you like a light rain. What a waste.

Many shower heads these days have little rubber outlets and I find most in hotels have never been cleaned. If I have time, I'll take the first few minutes of a hotel shower rubbing the little rubber outlets until they're clear of sediment. Of course I like to peel paint so it's somewhat enjoyable for me

Some of your guys treat your hotel showers very seriously!

We have an old school showerhead with no restrictor at all. A friend from CA visited and said he almost drowned in there.
