Speakman, Polished Chrome S-2005-HB
I have noticed The Speakman always out there in almost every luxurious hotel bathroom, and I have always wondered about what makes it so special that every hotel chain loves to have it in their palace.
Finally, got the answer after a lot of observation and research about Speakman Polished Chrome S-2005-HB Hotel Anystream.
The market is full of many well-reputed showerhead brands but Speakman is a name that stands out everytime and needs no introduction due to its awesome product line of extremely good quality. One such we have for review today, is an economical one.
This is a blend of multiple features that makes your bathing experience a memorable one. Contains 8 massage sprays in the center and 50 full-coverage sprays, resulting in 58 forceful sprays that provide a wonderful and soothing bathing experience.
It’s one of Speakman’s best-known and most popular showerheads.
Let’s have some deep insights about it and see if this is something worth a shout!
The sleek modern look is actually quite appealing, and with multiple corrosion-resistant finishes offered (Brushed Nickel, Polished Chrome, Brushed Chrome, Polished Brass), the freedom to decorate your bathing palace is just overwhelming. It’s not built out of any kind of metal and we surely can’t expect that at this price tag but it certainly does not affect its performance in any way.
Talking about its functionality, a small rotating knob along with the face allows you to change the water settings from one to another.
Wait a minute, did I not tell you about different water settings yet?
Let me share. You may call it a two-spray setting or a three-spray as well.
Wait, what do you mean by that? It can only be either two settings or three, right?
Well, kind of. The two main settings are Intense and Massage, then there is a combination of two, that I do not really call the third setting but the company claims it that way. Anyways not a big deal, the good part is that no matter which setting you are using, the water flows smoothly at a steady pace.
Let’s move ahead and shed some light on its water pressure and GPMs. In normal circumstances the water pressure is outstanding and you will merely feel the need to remove the flow restrictor. Still, if there are any low water flow issues in your area then I highly recommend removing it which can be done simply by a pair of nose pliers.
The best suggestion I can give you about whether you should remove the flow restrictor or not is, first enjoy the experience with the restrictor, if not satisfied, go ahead and remove it.
Just like its many other masterpieces, Speakman has also added three GPM ratings here as well, (1.75 GPM, 2 GPM, and 2.5 GPM), you just have to make sure that the one you are buying comes with the right ratings.
Installation:
Another chill pill Installation here, not much of the technical know-how needed, just remove the old one, wrap up the threads with some teflon (that comes in the package) and thread the showerhead, simple!.
Aslo do checkout for the regular cleaning as well for the mineral deposits with a mild soap and warm water.
Pros:
1) Solid Water Pressure
2) Beautiful Design
3) Multiple finishes offered
4) Inexpensive
Cons:
1) Excess water flow without restrictor
2) Plastic Built
3) Visible Mineral Build up
Time for the Concluding Remarks!
No wonder why Speakman is the talk of the town when it comes to shower heads, a truly deserving applause it is and with Speakman-2005-HB-PB Hotel Anystream the legacy continues. The best part is that even with the low water pressure, it works superbly.
From stunning looks to amazing water pressure, ease of access to durability, it has got all the marks checked to make it a great choice for an amazing shower experience most importantly without breaking the bank.
