Tools and Hardware Reviews of Waterpik NML-603(S) Linea 6-Mode Showerhead with OptiFLOW, Chrome
Customer Review: Best showerhead around, bar none!
Summary: 5 Stars
First, let me state that this is my third Waterpik Flexible Showerhead in the past 16 years. I replaced the first after 7 years after the massaging feature failed, the same for the second but held onto it longer. Why? Because it worked but after all those years hard water crud buildup stared to clog the head pores. However,both gave excellent performance during their lifespans. I notice the new Waterpik's do not include the word massage because they flat out do not offer much of a pulsating water massage. Too bad, this was a nice feature to have.
Secondly, the naysayers who claim the unit is flimsy and breaks during install must either be reviewers from other manufacturers or flat out gorillas not knowing their strength. It screws on easily and hand tightening is all that is needed. Come on, they're all made from the same mold so how can one be flimsy threaded while the next not? One thing one must do is remove the water restrictor valve inside the hose or, yes, your flow will be restricted to a useless dribble. Removing this nonsense part is easily done by looking at the pipe end of the hose and using your fingertips to unscrew it. No tool required just a few seconds of using your fingertips.
I am very happy with the new Waterpik, the hose position adjusts easily, the spray is full, powerful, yet gentle. If you are like me I wash my hair with the head at different position than when when showering. This is where the flex hose is fantastic. I also towel and exit at the front. Swinging the head out of the way keeps those final drops of water off your towel dry body. And, having the flex hose makes for cleaning a simple job too.
Finally, the new Waterpik has rubber nozzles. This, I assume, will make cleaning any plugged nozzles easy using a push pin or needle.
Customer Review: My favorite showerhead by far

This is the best showerhead I have ever used, including those from spas and hotels. Its greatest attribute is its flexible neck. Tall people like myself can actually shower standing up straight without stooping down under a traditional showerhead since you can adjust the height of the water coming out. You simply move the showerhead where you want it and it stays! During a typical shower I move it several times to aim at different heights. You get the flexibility of an adjustable spray without having to hold one of those hand held showerheads with one hand while trying to rinse your hair with only one free hand OR buying one of those ugly pipes to make your showerhead higher (more $$$). The flexible neck also makes cleaning the shower breeze. After you wash the walls and floor, you can move the flexible neck to any position to rinse off the shower cleaner. As with most showerheads, you can remove the OptiFlow ring to increase your water pressure. Just be sure to follow installation instructions (holding the head stationary while you thread the neck into your pipe, this is clearly stated in the installation instructions). This item used to be available widely at Home Depot or Lowe's in Southern California but now I can just find it online. Our house guests who have used this showerhead are also impressed with the massage modes.Customer Review: Waterpik NML-603 Showerhead

I have had this about 1 month and so far everything is great. One of the best "quality of life" moves I have made in recent years! For years I have put up with low water pressure in my shower but this Waterpik is "hotel quality" pressure! I mean it is carwash strong, I even have to turn down the water. My advice is to leave the water regulator in the device and try that first to see if the water pressure is okay for you, ( I took mine out and probably will put it back in in the future.) The directions are kind of so-so, it doesn't expand very much on what to do, especially on how to get the regulator out of the showerhead. The biggest problem I had was getting the old head off the water line! Before you buy a new showerhead, pop off the old one and see if it is full of crud and deposits on the inside, that's what was the main cause of the low water pressure for me even though the water nozzles were free flowing. I am happy with this product, adjusting the flexible tube is kind of funky, but I actually look forward to taking showers now! (I know, that's a pretty sad statement on my life huh?!)Customer Review: Will be getting another one!

We purchased a flexible Waterpik many many years ago that we absolutely loved. It held up great through a ton of pulling and pushing due to the different heights of the members in my family of 5, but, as all good things, it had about enough and would no longer stay up very well. So we searched until we could find its exact replacement. I read through many of the reviews on this product and was apprenhesive due to the number of people that claimed it did not hold its position as well as their original one. I know that the quality of manufactured products has deteriorated significantly through the years, but I have been extremely pleased with this new model. It holds its position perfectly (so may I suggest that if yours doesn't, it is a defective one and should be returned for a replacement) and the settings are fabulous. We do not have much pressure at our house, but this model magnifies the pressure excellently for a true massage when needed while providing low pressure settings for those with more sensitive needs. We are planning on purchasing another one to store for the future.Customer Review: Satisfied!!

I had read several reviews of this product after I had ordered 3 of them (two for my shower and one for another) so I didn't know what to expect. The reviews I had read were either love it or very disappointed. I have had three different models of the Waterpik shower head over the years. Although they do wear out and the flow does decrease with the build up of deposits in the head over time, I keep buying them because I like them. I HAPPY to report that my experience is EXCELLENT!! My only negative comment would be that like most products today it seems to be of lighter and perhaps cheaper quality than previous models. But as I stated this seems to be a trend with most products today. Everyone trying to find a way to cut costs. Bottom line.....the Waterpik NML-603(S) Linea 6-Mode Showerhead with OptiFLOW (Chrome)has the best power spray ever and I like the chrome (plastic) finish instead of the previous white. Enjoy your head!!!
