I'm looking for a recommendation for a normal flow shower head...none of this low flow bullshit.
Not even going to call it high capacity flow, or assault flow... |
| There's a little o-ring or some other limiting device inside of some shower heads that you remove. Look for cleverly worded labeling on the package that says that they can be adjusted for areas with low water pressure. That's code for "you can take the limiting device out." |

Grab that little piece of plastic and twist / pull / rip that shit out of there. Enjoy your new enjoyable shower. |

Have bought from High-Pressure Shower Heads before with good results.
Currently using the "Large Ultimate" with the flow restrictor removed and I actually have to turn down the pressure a little because it hits pretty hard. Thinking about trying their "Rain" shower head. Adam |

Unfortunately, there are bad low-flow toilets out there. But there are good ones too. Check out the American Standard Champion 4 and the Kohler Cimarron. Toto makes some good ones too, but I'm not familiar with the models. |

We just bought this one for our new master shower. It's still under construction, so we haven't been able to try it yet. http://www.amazon.com/Moen-S6320-Two-Function-Rainshower-Showerhead/dp/B004ZP97BO/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1357590018&sr=8-5&keywords=moen+shower+head |

My worn out pre-ban required double flushing. I begrudgingly replaced it with a new one that works perfectly. |

Im far from the hippy dippy, its just that low flow is all that is available now and we wanted to redo our bathrooms. Our Kohler models (cimmaron IIRC) which were straight off the shelf at Lowes and about $160 will damn near take you for the ride if your still sitting down
Also quite happy with our new Kohler tub faucets and showerheads, Better than the "regular flow" models they replaced. Keep in mind its a rain head 
The one thing that I will concede that kind sucks are the vanity fixtures. The water is extremley aerated and full of "fluff". Not much volume at all. |

You're having problems because you don't have a Toto toilet. I'll put my 1.2gpf Toto up against any other toilet, or any ass. Prior to it, we had about two clogs per week. Now, we haven't had a clog in months. TOTO FTMFW. |
