hansgrohe Croma 100 Hand shower Multi water-saving 9 l/min, chrome, 28538000

I have a Mira shower and the shower head it came with stopped working properly so I came across this one, it’s just perfect, has an even spray of water and 4 different spray options, absolutely love it! I got mine from Amazon warehouse for a cheaper price which was such a bargain and nothing wrong with it at all, the only adjustment I had to make was the washer inside the shower head was too small for my fitting, so I just used the one I already had and it works a treat!

My previous one, of the same make, was over 10 years old I think. Something had broken inside, relating to the flow adjustment. The writing on the handle had worn away, so I didn't know the make, so thanks to Google Lens, I was able to identify it, and order another. I can't complain about it, considering how long it has been in use. Especially when my two son's were teenagers, sometimes having two showers a day! When I ordered, in July, it said it wouldn't be arriving until January 25, but as my old one was still working, I decided to wait. Luckily, I was notified it was ready for collection today, (1st August), from my Amazon pick up point, and I've just fitted it, and it works perfectly, as I expected from past experience. Don't hesitate to buy this. You won't be disappointed. Looks good too! No leaks. Considering how long it lasts, and the good service it gives, it is excellent value for money. Happy customer 😊

When I bought this I did think it was a tad pricey but I'd already fitted a Hansgrohe bath mixer which, I had not realised did not come with the shower head. My bad for not reading the description properly.And I repeated my mistake here again. I figured for the price which, is way higher than generic heads the hose would come with it.Nope.All that money only buys the actual head itself. It's not great value to be honest.However, putting that aside, the fact is that this is a very good quality item and it certainly works well. It's good in the hand and the water flow in all modes is well controlled. That money has made a difference for sure.Bottom line is that I should have accepted that buying German designed quality was not going to be quite as cheap as the initial prices suggested. I would still have bought the same equipment because, it's genuinely very good. However, read the descriptions because Hansgrohe sell exactly what they say. The bath mixer with shower head attachment requires you to purchase the mixer, the shower head, the hose and the wall mount separately unless you see a package deal.Fundamentally, you are paying a good amount but you are getting high quality.

I bought and installed this shower head six months ago. The original shower head, which was Italian made, served for EIGHTEEN years. It started leaking from the sides of the moving face disc. After a long search I became convinced that the same product was not available any more, so I bought a very similar (almost identical) one made in China, at a very affordable price. In less than two weeks some of its water outlets became clogged or semi-clogged, as a result of which water started dripping from some outlets and spraying in all directions from others. And despite the manufacturer's claim, it was almost impossible to clean the water outlets and restore normal shower effect. That's when I decided to buy this Hansgrohe Croma 100 Vario hand shower head. I couldn't be more satisfied with it. The water outlets are cleaned as easily as described by the manufacturer. I am almost certain I will use it for another eighteen years!

Excellent shower head, the perfect replacement for my worn out one.

So I cannot vouch for the water saving as I have only had the shower head for a week or so.Quality of the head is good and is easy to clean but unfortunately when I turn the shower off the head does leak out for about 30 seconds which is annoying.I have not used the other settings as the main setting of full shower is totally fine.

The 4 settings work well and the larger head works well for us

At the end of the day this is simply a shower head: a sealed shape that lets water out in a controlled way. It's not rocket science. This particular model has some heft and doesn't leak, save where intended. Unlike the description, it does not seem to have 4 modes: it adjusts seamlessly, without 4 steps or clicks, from rainfall to a more focused, sharper blast. It lacks the full range you might expect: the rain mode is a little stronger than ideal, and the focused blast is less aggressive than others. But what you lose on adjustment (very little) is made up for by the solid build, so, for me, this is a 4+ review. If it had a wider margin of adjustment, 5 stars.
