    One rain head and a wand is fine for me. As long as the rain head is wide enough to get all of me while I sit on the shower floor letting it run over me while I contemplate my life for 10 minutes. The wand to actually do a good job of soap removal.

    I had one of the nice showers with rain head and two wall jets and a wand. The jets never turned off just wasted pressure that could have gone elsewhere.

    I am glad the people who bought my townhouse didn’t get an inspection because they would have found out that one of the knobs just spun and the other knob wasn’t fastened so came loose. The previous people we bought it from did a shoddy remodel that we didn’t get an inspection for so we just passed it on. It was our first home so we learned to pay for the inspection with our next place.

      I just want a wand with a nice balance between pressure and area. My current one is great, it has a setting somewhere between massage head and regular. It’s nice and penetrates my hair quickly. That said my other priority is that the head is sufficiently high up. I’m just tall enough I often have to bend over, use the wand part, or sit/kneel to wash my hair, and I hate that. Tall people deserve showers too

      LOL I got lucky with the sale of my home too. The new owners passed on the home inspection, so thankfully they didn’t notice my DIY hacks, like fixing the door trim with wood filler after I got locked out one day and had to kick the door down to get in; they also somehow didn’t notice the cracked tile in the middle of the living room. FWIW there were spare tiles leftover to swap it out, all the appliances were less than 5 years old, and there were no major structural issues with the home so they still got a decent deal.

      But anyway I use a wand on a hose as well but I still want a shower like this. 'Cause I swear that no matter much I rinse my back off, I still miss some soap and end up with an itchy back after my shower. I kinda regret installing a whole-home filtration system since it makes rinsing the all the soap off take so much longer! I’m seriously considering not installing one when I buy my new home in the next few months (and I’m taking my sweet time cause it’s a buyer’s market at the moment).
