Ok, I just moved in to a new place and the shower head in my shower sucks donkey balls. I'm looking for something that throws a lot of water. What do you guys use?

Kohler Devonshire single function shower head.  It's a broad spray pattern and it puts out a decent amount of water.  Supposedly a destructor can be removed but I've not found a desire to do so.  Liked it enough I bought one for each shower.

The one you have would probably work fine if you take it apart and drill out the restrictor. Pretty much any new shower head will have the same issue.

I chose a Speakman Anystream, when the wife and I built in around 2000. It was like what I had in dorm at college. Removed the flow restrictor filter. Wish I'd bought more of them. 30-40 a piece at that time. Found it at Home Depot or Lowes. Don't remember.

Why do you need more water for a shower? Get in shower, get wet, scrub body with soapy wash cloth, and rinse. Where does more water help?

Probably with either the "get wet" or "rinse" part.

It takes a couple of seconds to get wet. It takes a few more to rinse. Why waste water during he entire process when you don't need it?

Just go to Lowes or Home Depot and look for the cheapest plastic shower head, usually at the bottom of the large display and it will be a non "water saver" model.,,Done deal.

soak it in Vinegar(or CLR) for an hour or so, and reattach to shower and turn on, then it comes right out with the water.

I heard that the newer installations have flow restrictions in the valves at the faucet now, so hacking your shower head is no longer as effective in bringing you the Canadian shower experience.

Best shower EVER was the second stall from the right in my college dorm.  Water came out so hard that my skin would be red for 10 minutes after I got out of the shower!

What is a "these guys" ? Someone who doesn't understand the point of needing more water from a shower head?

I don't care what you do with your truck. It doesn't affect me in any way.
I've got Moras and Busses. Knives are fun.
My next truck will likely be new because for me there really isn't any added cost. Do what works for you.
No idea who the fuck buys pots and pans at goodwill. That is a new one for me.

Apparently I am not your typical person who doesn't understand why more water in a shower is better. Maybe you can actually take the time to explain why it is desirable instead of lumping me in with this odd group of people that your are so familiar with.

This right here.  Just use a drill bit or dremel and open the hole up a little by little.  If you have good water pressure this will work.



Don't just bore the hole out because if you overdo it you could end up with a turbo shower head that blows the hair off your head.



 



if you don't have good water pressure nothing will help.  So try this first.
