Moen 6320 Velocity Multifunction Rainshower, Chrome Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I know this moen shower head gets great reviews. I was drawn to that too. But i really wanted to get the best shower head. Last year i went to New York city and stayed at the Jane Hotel. Highly recommend by the way. Their bathrooms are unisex with closed shower stalls. Anyway, they had AN INCREDIBLE rain shower. The thing was so big it dumps a waterfall on you. I loved it so much i called the hotel later and asked where they purchase them. They said restoration hardware. The ones at restoration hardware range from $400-$600 and put out 5-6 GPM (gallons per minute). This is extremely important to know about when purchasing a raincan shower head. Federal regulations stipulate shower heads must be no more that 2.5 GPM.
Here come the part about MOEN. Model 6320 Velocity moen shower head is 2.5 gpm. The entire charm of a rain shower experience is that it DUMPS water on you. Dumping water at a rate of 5-6 GPM means INCREDIBLE FORCE!!! Moen may be the best of the 2.5 GPM, BUT MOEN DOES NOT EVEN COMPARE TO A RAINSHOWER EXPERIENCE WITH 5-6 GPM.
Pay attention to this review. I ACTUALLY BOUGHT FIVE DIFFERENT BRANDS OF 8 INCH RAINSHOWER SHOWER HEADS TO COMPARE QUALITY. I doubt the other reviewers did this. I purchased a Delta (not bad actually), three Pegasus shower heads (pegasus is the home depot brand), and the MOEN velocity. I returned all of them except for the MOEN and the PEGASUS 8 inch power shower in chrome.
Here is a comparison of the two, and the PEGASUS is LEAPS AND BOUNDS BETTER IN PERFORMANCE AND QUALITY!!!

Moen showerhead does not put out that much water. It is self pressurized so it does have force.But its not much different from a normal showerhead. Let me reiterate that the entire charm of a rainshower is the quanity of water it dumps on you. The moen is a anemic little rain. Also it only has two settings. Another problem with it is they dont design it to be disassembled for cleaning. Really good rainshowers come with a wrench to dissassemble. This needs to be done when you have hard water. The lime builds up inside and cloggs all the holes. I called and spoke with a technical advisor at moen about this. They said to soak it in vinegar.
Yeah that sounds easy. And I'm just supposed to hope that cleans out the holes on my $125 shower head.
For maybe $15 more, you can buy Pegasus 8 inch solid chrome plated brass "power shower" shower head. It has rubber nipples too, just like moen, to prevent corrosion where water comes out. But where moen only has two settings, PEGASUS HAS FIVE SETTINGS. In addition it comes with the wrench for dissassembly and cleaning. IN ADDITION THE PLASTIC 2.5 gpm REGULATER IS REMOVABLE!!! This means you can use the water saver or not. I choose not to and this baby puts out 5-6 gpms. THE FORCE IS VASTLY BETTER THAN MOEN WHEN REGULATOR IS REMOVED! If you choose to use the 2.5 gpm regulator, honestly the pressure is not good and I would go with the moen.
But with the regulator removed i guarantee the experience is 200% better than moen, no contest.
In addition I highly recommend buying the pegasus 17.5 inch Victorian s curved shower arm. It is $87. It raises the height of the shower head dramatically to improve the rainshower experience. AND It puts the shower head over the center of your shower. Dont know about you but i dont want to be standing close to shower wall under one of these. There is a $38 version of the shower arm. It is great too, but only 13 inches long.
Happy showering, my friends!
