I wanted to take a moment to review this item since so many of the others were left by those who received discounts or free products. I did not, and so want others to have non-promotional feedback to help them make a decision. I live in a home with well water and poor water pressure. I installed this shower head in only a matter of minutes, and I am happy to say that I finally have a decent shower in my home. The pressure is sufficient enough to reach the back of the tub, which is much better than the previous shower head that didn't even make it to the center of the tub. I would say that those with great water pressure may find the stream too hard if they have sensitive skin, but it definitely transformed my well water pressure to a much better spray. The reason I'm only giving four stars is because the pressure isn't perfect - I've lived in other homes with much more pressure. Additionally, it is made of plastic and has a somewhat flimsy feel - I will definitely update when I have used it more than once. For those who are looking for a handheld shower head that will improve the pressure from wells or old pipes, I would definitely recommend this product.
**Update**
While this shower head still provides good pressure, the pulsating setting (the second of the three) stopped working within two weeks. This doesn't seem to affect the spray setting or the massage setting, but the rotating/pulsing setting was great while it lasted. I didn't deduct a star because it still provides the other two settings and the increase in pressure. Just wanted others to know about the problem if they are considering it for the less intense massage/shower setting.
Just installed this today, seems to work great. Installation was quite simple. I have to admit though, there was one piece leftover not referred to in the directions. It looked like a strange chicken foot thingamajig (picured below). It was pretty funny when we took it out of the clear package and discovered it was just a pen. It's a pen people, don't be like me and search the instruction manual for it.
I am leaving this review for the consumers like me who are looking for an honest and trustworthy recommendation. So, consumer, if you want the TRUTH from another blue-collar customer who deals with low water pressure, read what I have to say.
I live in a townhouse with absolutely horrible, low water pressure. With my last "hose style" shower head it would take 20-30 minutes to get a solid shower in and I always still felt grimey afterwards. It honestly became a chore just to stay clean. For the price, I figured that this Yoo.Mee would at least be worth a shot. Some of the one-star reviews made me apprehensive but I went for it anyway.
When the box came in the mail it looked a bit cheap so I was nervous. Don't let this fool you. For someone suffering from the misfortune of crappy water pressure, THIS SHOWER HEAD IS LIFE CHANGING! Not only has it cut my shower time into 1/4 of what it was before, the strong stream is relaxing and soothing. When I get of the shower I feel squeaky clean, relaxed, and rejuvenated. I have thick, long hair and to wash it would commonly take 40+ minutes. Before this product, I always had leftover conditioner and buildup in her hair, even after spraying away at it for extended periods of time. I am now in-and-out in 10 minutes and my hair feels cleaner and healthier. No joke.
Another thing we love is the nice, long hose length and the fact that the unit is so lightweight. It makes it easy to move around and just improves the shower experience overall by a landslide.
If you are hesitating for any reason, DON'T! You do not have to deal with low water pressure any longer now that you have stumbled upon this GOLDEN, MAGICAL, WONDROUS product! I promise you. I did not realize how utterly important water pressure is in the shower experience until I finally made the switch and mark my words- I will never, EVER go back.
To the one star reviews complaining about it not improving your water pressure, my guess is that you installed it incorrectly or you never really had low water pressure in the first place.
HAPPY SHOWERING!
UPDATE: 5/6/19 This shower head is still going strong for us. Years later. That says something about the quality of this product. There is a little black ring that popped off but it hasn't effected anything so I'm not even sure what the purpose of said ring was :)
The pressure is great. It's not QUITE blasting the skin off my body, but it's FAR stronger than the other two shower heads I've tried in this same shower and stronger than any shower head I can ever remember using.
There are 3 shower head settings at roughly 4 o'clock, 6 o'clock, and 8 o'clock and there will be a well-defined groove (or click) when you hit each setting. If you find them to be too strong, simply move the dial BETWEEN the exact settings just a little bit (even 1 mm may suffice). This will lessen the pressure of any single mode.
By the way, the hose is a nice braided component, so it doesn't bend and curve into your shower space, it just hangs straight down. I didn't notice this mentioned elsewhere.
[EDIT: According to a commenter, the nuts are now identical. If that's true you can ignore the stuff about nut sizing.]
The directions are a little bit lacking. The hose comes with two different connectors (nuts) and one is small and one is large.
The SMALL nut goes on the large/long threads at the shower BASE (coming out of the wall).
The LARGE nut goes on the shorter threads at the shower HEAD.
I don't have any idea why the nut depth is not sized to the thread depth they are going on.
Why does this matter? The nuts and components are plastic. If you have to unscrew and re-screw them multiple times, you may damage them.
The instructions mention hand tightening in one section, but not others. I'd recommend hand-tightening everything just so you don't risk breaking any plastic--if it leaks, then get out an adjustable wrench or pliers.

Thank you... YOO MEE for including the eye cleaning mode. Notice in the picture, the tiny sliver of overly Psi’d water blasting off in its own direction. Like a rocket ship sending off a flaming rocket booster back to earth. Well, needless to say, my eye crossed directly into its path. Thankfully, the adaptor to adjust the pressure was set wide open, otherwise I don’t think the stream would have found its way between my eye and eyelid. I started seeing psychedelic shapes and colors flashing around. I nearly slipped and fell under the spell your showerhead had on me. It was intense. I felt like I dropped acid in my eye and was temporarily blinded, like when a soap sud somehow bounces off your body and into your eye, catching you off guard. All you can do at that point is wince and ride it out while watering your eye down. I had nothing. I took it by the horns and rode out the throbbing pain while maintaining my naked composure. My eyes welled up with tears and my nose started running. So to the next buyer of this elephant washer, please adjust the gray thing before gingerly walking out into an asteroid field. 4-stars. I didn’t ask for the eye cleaner.
This product is truly life changing for those with bad water pressure. I was a bit skeptical when purchasing because I have tried different shower heads in the past with no luck. This was not the case with Yoo.Me. Other reviewers are right the packaging was very simple, but the product is anything but. The only con is the fact that it produces a bit of air flow from the high pressure which makes my shower curtains stick to me, so I'll have to figure out a solution for that, otherwise it's pretty great!! I took a video of the before and after, hopefully you can see the difference!
Ok , so this is my review of the YOO.MEE high pressure handheld showerhead. As others have stated , it is really powerful , especially in full coverage mode ! Basically if I were to let it go , it would whip around like a loose fire hose . I'm not kidding this will push you away from a wall no problem. I almost feel like putting in one of the included flow restrictors because it provides such strong water pressure. But I won't. As for the included FLOW REGULATOR ( not restrictor ) unless I'm doing something wrong , it's pretty much useless. I followed the instructions but when it's connected no water comes out of the shower head. As for rotating it like it says in instructions it's solid plastic so the regulator itself doesn't move. You have to turn the shower head , to which only a trickle comes out so I don't even bother with it. So i just skip the regulator and go with just the shower head. It really does as it says , a good high pressure shower.
•Tried 2 different handhelds from the Walmart , peerless and a waterpik , both we’re almost 30$.
Both were seriously weak, the waterpik had a decent centralized high pressure massage/ jet spray.
This one from yoo.mee is almost half the cost, and is sooo much more powerful , you can see hear and feel the difference, listen to it in my amateur shower head video. Plus the hose is done right , sturdy and no weird or awkward hangin positions to battle with or untangle -
Taking waterpik back today -
Hope it lasts atleast a year , and I’ll be a returning buyer -
I don't understand the purpose of fixed shower heads unless you don't like to wash the nitty gritty. With that being said, I always have had a hand held shower head. We moved to a new place and didn't bring our old one. I wanted something that was able to WASH the conditioner out of my HAIR!, The hose would be long enough to wash my dog ANDDD was able to toggle to a softer setting to rinse my baby!
This does ALL OF THE ABOVE. Installation is super easy; please use the plumbing tape provided. Also the grey washer is the adjuster that regulates the flow of the water. You must install this. I did not install the water saver. Although the showerhead itself is quite small, it is very powerful and has 3 settings. It is holding up great and the hose as well. I do recommend lowering the pressure BEFORE you turn off your water. This is perhaps why some of the other reviewers are having broken hoses etc.
If you still don't have amazing water pressure then perhaps the pipes are to blame or your landlord.
Go ahead and buy it, it's a better value than what you will find at regular stores for double to triple the price.
