Shower head test: What should I look out for?
While a shower head is undoubtedly a utilitarian item, it significantly influences the daily shower experience and overall comfort. Whether you prefer a gentle rain spray, a powerful massage function, or a water-saving standard spray, the right shower head can be perfectly tailored to individual needs and requirements – both in your own bathroom and in public restrooms or other facilities. A wide range of criteria can play a role in shower head reviews: aesthetics (design), quality (material and workmanship), and innovation (special features). This guide will tell you what to look for when choosing a shower head and which models represent a good long-term investment.
Shower head test – the most important criteria at a glance
For a shower head to impress in a test, very specific factors are taken into account. Crucially, water consumption is measured in liters per minute or water per minute. Modern water-saving shower heads automatically reduce consumption, thus saving both water and energy without compromising comfort. Another criterion: customers value a shower head offering multiple spray patterns – many of our models have up to three different spray patterns that can be easily changed, often at the touch of a button. It's also important to consider whether the shower head is equipped with an anti-limescale function, making it easy to remove deposits and keeping the shower head hygienic. And a shower head test also shows that those who prioritize quality, durability, and comfort will receive a product that not only performs well in everyday use but can also save money in the long run and enhance every shower experience. Here you will find our range of shower heads .

At Armatron, you'll find shower heads and shower sprays distinguished by their robust, durable, and easy-to-clean surfaces – such as brushed V4A stainless steel or elegant PVD copper finish.

This keeps your shower head hygienic and shiny – even after years of intensive use.
