Pros
Water empties as soon as you turn it off - doesn't drip for the next hour. Great flow control, from almost off to "knock you down". Low profile look.
Cons
Have not come up with any so far.

We purchased this model showerhead in the mid-70's, and enjoyed many years of faultless service until about a year ago when a leak developed due to corrosion. Over those years the price had nearly doubled - so we tried some lower priced models from the local hardware store.. NO CONTEST! So, we bit the bullet / paid the price / and now are enjoying the familiar soothing waterfall in our shower. The adjustment mechanism is precise, and the variety of spray and pressure control 'just feels right'...

Pros
This was the third Sloan Shower head that I have purchased from Sporty's. This one gives a tighter forceful shower and I prefer it over the soft rain effect in newer shower heads. The first two have lasted for 15 years without need of service. This is an excellent product.

Sporty's has always been a pleasure to deal with. I find myself always looking in your catalog first before ordering home accessories from anyone else. Thank you.

Pros
We have a water well with a pressure tank for water supply so not very good water pressure. This is the 4th shower head I've purchased from Shortys in the past 12 years and I have tried others but this shower head is by far the best one I've ever used under these conditions and I would highly recommend it to anyone! You will not be disappointed with it under any supply conditions and it works even better under low pressure conditions!
Cons
I have only purchased the chrome model and with our water well water, which has "moderate dissolved chemicals" ie. moderate sodium and calcium levels, this chrome shower head is not the best at preventing corrosion of the metal parts. Whether the other metal heads would be better, I don't know but their costs are too prohibitive for me to take that chance so I just plan on replacing the head every 4 to 5 years.
General Comments
A wonderful product that should last the average household decades under treated water conditions and a shower head that will last longer than the average under not so ideal water conditions.

Living in California, we have to conserve as much water as possible. This shower head meets this need. The spray power is not compromised although the head is smaller than the one we had been using. Very pleased with the quality of your product.
