 great shower fun! Oct 03, 2008
By Megan M. Kane
I have been using this shower head for four months. As the previous reviewer mentioned, the water pressure is lower than most shower heads, even after I removed the flow regulator. There is still enough pressure to comfortably rinse my hair. Also, about 2 1/2 months into use all of the lights dimmed considerably - but a few weeks later, they intensified again, and have remained bright. Perhaps there was some variability with the water pressure in my house.
The shower light really is powered by the water flow, so I haven't had to worry about replacing batteries. The blue light is bright enough to shower with the lights off, and the red light is dimmer (but still looks cool). I have noticed that the light stays blue even with fairly warm water - it will not turn red until the shower is HOT. Interestingly, when the water temperature is borderline, both red and blue LEDs are lit, creating a neat purple effect.
Highly recommended for blue led lovers!

Very cool but limited life shower head Sep 15, 2009
By D. Besaw
Just installed this nearly a week ago and it works great. There is more than enough water pressure in my apartment to drive the internal turbine and make it work. I also removed the pressure regulator prior to installation and recommend that others do the same as it is a rubber insert with three very tiny holes to regulate the water usage to 2.5 US gallons of water per minute at approximately 80 PSI. You will definitely want to leave in the filter screen though.
Yes, the output is considerably less than typical shower heads but to me it feels great and doesn't spray water all over the place like the previous shower head did.
As for the LED's, I love the colors. I've noticed that the blue is brighter than the red but that's no big deal and both are bright enough to where I could shower in the dark if needed, for example an extended power outage.
I would highly recommend this shower head. It does exactly what its intended to do and since it has an internal turbine, no batteries are required. Just make sure you have sufficient water pressure and shop around for the best price.
If it breaks in short order, then I'll adjust my rating accordingly.
EDIT: 8/28/10
Just under a year (first installed on 9/10/09) and it is just about ready to bite the dust. That's not good. It seems like 11-12 months is the magic number as far as the life expectancy of this item is concerned. I'm really glad I didn't pay the retail price about $49.99 or I would have been really mad. Fortunately I got a second one at a REALLY good discount, paid only $7.98 so I'll install that one soon and try again.

Makes everyday boring into fun time! Sep 19, 2008
By D. Devito
I am enjoying the temperature color change feature, can get into the shower much sooner (waste less water) when I see the color changing.
The water pressure is slightly lower now, so if you like a hard pounding shower, this may ruin it for you. When you shut the water pressure off, its makes some gurgley sounds as the water drains out of the oversized head. Something you get used too. I am getting plenty clean and its really fun to take aa shower, that's the bottom line.

LED Shower Head Feb 04, 2009
By Jeffrey D. Mueller
"Bookin It"
Product is fun and pretty bright when turned on. It does exactly what is shown in many of the videos on youtube and elsewhere. However one recommendations to buyers, Open up the shower head and use clear packaging tape to cover the outer ring of holes where water sprays out. reason being is that the water does not shoot out far enough with normal pressure. All else is good! However it does have a plastic and somewhat cheap feeling to it, but it is fun to take dark showers with a mate.

 Dissapointed Jan 04, 2009
By Eric H. Laskey

I bought this shower head on the discount table at a home furnishings store. I installed it first with the pressure regulator installed. The water barely dribbled out, and the light stuttered. For the second installation I took the regulator out. The water reached about a foot away from the shower wall this time. I had to turn the water all the way to the hot side to get it to change from blue to red. My water pressure must not be high enough. Went back to my old boring shower head.
I used a rubber mat between my wrench and the attachment fitting but the chrome still pealed off a little.
