Product Description Cascadia, 8" Diameter, White With Gray Accent, Oversized Showerhead, 8" Flexible Arm Adjusts To Infinite Positions & Height Settings, 2 Spray Settings, Gentle Rinse and Concentrated Power Spray, Easy To Use Spray Selector, Sleek, Futuristic Design.
Amazon.com Review It'll be hard to get out of the shower after experiencing the relaxing spray of the Cascadia showerhead. The head has a huge 7-3/4-inch diameter with 69 rubber nozzles so water encompasses your whole body during a shower and it actually does feel like you're standing in heavy rainfall. A button on the showerhead's neck lets you change from a soothing, full-body downpour to a concentrated, powerful spray. The 8-inch flexible arm is long enough to adjust to any position for targeting hot water on sore muscles. The Cascadia comes with a collar and a shower arm nut for attaching the arm to the showerhead and the water pipe, plus instructions on how to do it. A flow regulator keeps water at the regulated maximum--2.5 gallons per minute. This showerhead is covered by a five-year warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde

Excellent customer service, newer models are improved October 17, 2009 G. Kline (Hoboken, NJ) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
*** UPDATE *** 10/20
I contacted Waterpik customer service regarding my faulty Cascadia shower head, and they shipped me off a replacement--for free! No questions asked. The new one is improved from my old one. The switch works much better and there are definitely no leaks. The showerhead works really well. What I like best about it is the dual mode settings. Most showerheads that have more than one setting try to pack in a whole bunch of different modes. Most of them are difficult to tell apart, and all of those massaging ones need really good water pressure to do much of anything. Quite frankly, I've only experienced one massaging showerhead that I really liked--unfortunately a very expensive model and very wasteful with water.
The rain mode on this head is very good. It's not the largest, but I'd say better than average. I tested the flow and found it does deliver about 2.5 GPM (gallons per minute). The center jet is nicely powerful without feeling like needles pounding on your skin, delivering 3.5 GPM. It's great for rinsing your hair.
So, my 2 star review is a bit premature. I wish I could change it to 4 stars, as the replacement unit is great and Waterpik customer service exemplary.

I've owned my Cascadia for 5 years, having put it in storage for about 2 of them. So, 3 years of solid use. At first, I really liked it. If you have sufficient water pressure, you get a nice wide spray of water in rain mode. The center switch can change the mode from rain to center. The center jet is stronger and focused, good for getting your hair rinsed from conditioners.
HOWEVER, this product does NOT last. Like others have cited, the center switch is poorly made. There are 3 black rubber O-rings laid out on the plastic dowel, with some thin plastic shielding in between. That plastic shielding gets weak over time and ends up twisting, contorting, and eventually tearing. The result is that it lets water leak through the switch and exposes the O-rings to stress that eventually tears them, making the leak even worse.
By default, the head does have trouble staying up because of the flexible arm. This can be partially solved by tightening down the screw mechanism. It takes a while, but you can eventually make the arm stiff enough that it won't drop completely down on you. Unfortunately, it does leave only a few positions where the head will stay put.
The water action on this head is great. I would have given this product only 1 star if it weren't for that. This item sure looks good, and performs well when it is functional, but for the price it is NOT worth it. The only metal on this thing are four Philips head screws--everything else is plastic and rubber. The finish is fine, but the fit is sub par. Mine has gaps along the edges where the head stem pieces are. For this kind of quality, I'd expect the head to cost $15.
WHY can't Waterpik get its act together and make a decent product at a reasonable price? I'm on a quest for a REALLY good dual or triple mode shower head that is well designed and acceptably priced. If you know of one, please post in the comments. I'm going to try contacting Waterpik for a replacement switch in the meanwhile...
Great showerhead, has worked well for years February 21, 2009 Cute Chihuahua (Orient, OH USA) I love the Cascadia showerhead. Its over-sized showerhead covers a large area and makes you feel like you are standing under a waterfall. It has two spray options wide area spray and power rinse. The power rinse option it will spray a powerful and narrow stream of water that makes rinsing quick and easy. The wide spray option will give you an 8-inch wide downpour of water. The unit also looks nice and will go with any bathroom. I used this showerhead for years without any problem.
It's a good shower head February 8, 2009 Yo-Yo (Southwest Florida) It's not as wide as I expected. It covers about as much as other shower heads do.
Definately Worth It! January 12, 2009 Baby Dove I bought this about 2 years ago because of its rain feature. Last night the hose finally gave way and I came online to buy a replacement. Though I never had a problem with mind, reading the negative reviews about its flimsiness made me nervous about buying another one online. I decided I'd look for it in store. Then I read on Amazon that it comes with a 5 year warranty. Though I can't remember where I put my receipt - its been 2 years, I decided to call Waterpik. The gal on the phone took my information and said I should get my replacement in 7-10 days!! The call took less than 6 minutes. She didn't want proof of purchase, etc and told me to just trash the broken one! I spent a little under $30 when I bought it, and now I get a new one for free!!
Great Showerhead January 6, 2009 Bobby Boy (Fort Mill, SC) This showerhead is very relaxing, it showers your whole body with water. It is easy to move and stays put wherever you put it. I could not go back to the old type anymore.......
