HammerHead Showers® Solid Metal Handheld Shower Head Holder - Matte Black - Adjustable Shower Wand Holder with Universal Wall Hook Bracket and Brass Pivot Ball - Hand Held Shower Head Holder

Bought the Metal Handheld Shower Head Holder in Chrome finish. Wow, this is excellent quality and will no doubt last. If you are tired of those flimsy plastic chrome coated shower parts and need to replace with something better, then you have found the right company and part. Solid, heavy-duty metal. It swivels, it shines, its durable, easy to install. Bought the holder several months back and finally got around to installing it. I dreaded taking the shower assembly apart, but I was more annoyed by the leak in the old existing plastic one and found it in a box set to the side, so I went ahead and finally installed it. The box contained the holder, Teflon tape and basic instruction page with warranty info. The holder was nicely wrapped in a soft clothlike bag to protect from scratches. Use rubber strap wrench to uninstall old plastic part. Detach hose and handheld shower from old part. Put Teflon tape on all external metal threads. Nice included Teflon tape so did not have to hunt some down. Screw the one end onto the shower arm filter on wall side, screw the metal ended hose to other end of holder with handheld shower head attached. Ensure you have the hose the right way as sometimes one coupler end is longer to fit in the holder. All back together. Check the hose fits into the holder. Hand snug together then tighten with soft strap wrench. Do not use metal wrenches or you will more than likely scratch up the finish. Turn on water and test, no leaks. Looks good and will definitely outlast the plastic.

First I bought a chrome plated plastic replacement from blue box. It leaked - badly. Then I tried one from orange box. Better, but still leaked. Then I found HammerHead. Bought their chrome plated, all metal, built to last beyond my lifetime replacement. Installed it exactly the same way as I did the other two. No leaks!!! Solidly built! Much, much better fit and a huge quality improvement! I’ll never use another company - why waste time on inferior products?!

I recently ordered two of these, to replace cheap plastic ones (one of which broke, another which was starting to show wear). They cost about three times what a decent chrome plated plastic version does, but I decided I just wanted to get really good metal ones, and be done with it. These appeared to be the best match for what I had, only made of solid brass, with a nice chrome plating. They arrived quickly, and were everything that was represented in the product page. They are heavy (definitely solid brass as advertised), and the chrome finish is excellent. They each came in their own box, complete with teflon tape, and extra rubber washers for each. They installed easily, and all the threads lined up correctly. Had to re-install one which dripped from the joint, but that was my installation, not the product (I didn't use enough of the included tape - I'm not a plumber - but there was plenty of tape for a second try, and now it's perfect). They look so much nicer than the plastic ones, and I expect them to be the last shower head holders I ever have to buy for these bathrooms. The handheld shower also fits much more firmly and securely into these than it did into the plastic ones (probably because these do not bend and deform easily like the plastic ones do). If I ever needed these again (and based upon the quality of these I expect that I will not because they will last forever) I would not hesitate to buy these again. Just pay the extra $15-18 bucks for these solid brass fixtures (verses getting the cheap plastic version), do it right, and never have to do it again!

This metal shower head connection was easy to install and won't crack like my previous fake "metal" one which was a plastic material. This one is definely metal, the only way to go!

I basically never write reviews on Amazon but was so thrilled with this thing. Please ignore that the finishes don't match. Unfortunately my hardware is nickel and the existing showerhead I had was chrome. So I have a Hansgrohe Clubmaster hand shower and the swivel mount it came with cracked and failed because it was plastic. I called Hansgrohe and they sent me a new one but said that it would not be adjustable (newer design). That was disappointing but was fine for a while until I moved into a place where the shower arm came in much lower. I'd have to squat just to get my head under the water. I was looking into shower arm extensions, S shaped ones, all that stuff to solve this issue. But I said you know what I'm overdue to replace this hand shower holder and thankfully found this item. Not only did it give me back most the height I needed it also somehow allowed for way more water pressure to come through my showerhead. I guess I hadn't noticed that the new part in the other product had also included some restriction in it. I had already removed the restrictor in my hand shower head itself. I will say I totally buy into the ethos here of metal feeling like better quality, less disposable and throw away BS. The only reservation I have is that the shower head requires nothing more than a light touch to adjust the pitch. Hopefully that just means this is well designed, but I do worry when it's not quite so new if it will start to droop a bit on its own. Time will tell as I've only used it the once so far. That said if you think you need one of these just get it. I know sometimes it's easy to be cynical or jaded about a lot of imported internet direct stuff on Amazon where they have a bunch of fake reviews and you're worried about getting some piece of trash that ends up a chore to return. This was not that, and I applaud them for seeing an opportunity in the market and getting these made. Hopefully it stays durable for the long haul, but even still the price on this is super competitive with some of the plastic crap out there for sale.

I broke the plastic shower head holder that came with the shower head I bought at a big box store, by yanking a little too hard on the flexible hose. What a ridiculous design! So I went to another big box store and bought another plastic holder, made by a different vendor (or with a different brand.) It fit fine and got the shower back in working order, but I decided that a brass fitting was a better solution to the problem. So I found this nice part, brass with a brushed nickel finish, and ordered it. It is an impressive and nicely made plumbing fitting, installed easily and looks great. I only have one complaint: the bit that holds the shower head is just a hair too small, so that the shower head doesn't slide all the way in. It is workable, the shower head stays in place, but it seems a bit insecure. It wouldn't take much to change the dimensions to make my shower head slide all the way in, but I guess when you are trying for a universal fit, it's hard to get it just right. Even with that, I am staying with the brass, but I have docked a star because of the less than perfect fit.

Very well made. Heavy duty

Solid works well sturdy no problem yet over 6 months

Parfait et de très bonne qualité, tel que décrit. Seul soucis : Mon pommeau de douche est un peu grand et ne s'insère pas complètement. Le fabricant pourrait-il préciser le diamètre compatible ? Merci

Good product, very well made. All parts are solid metal as advertised. The producer made an extra effort even in packaging and sent extra gaskets with the product. It doesn't seems like a big deal, it is a shower holder, but the producer sent it in a little case, tells you a lot about company. Installation takes 5 min at most, fits perfectly. The prize is the same that you will pay for a cheap plastic. Very good, well made quality part. Thank you!

Wow this is a substantial item! The heft instantly screams "all metal!", no cheap plastic here. Great finish too, this item should outlive me!

Just replaced my leaky plastic showerhead holder with this all-metal one from Hammerhead. I actually really like my old showerhead and the hose even if it is some cheapo one, so I only swapped out the holder/balljoint thingy. Technically it's just the white plastic gasket inside the balljoint that failed and caused a spray/leak, but I can't imagine I could find that specific part. Decided to spend the 30$ on the BIFL piece. So far, so good. I imagine it'll be good for a long time.

Nice chrome metal not plastic. It even came with some Teflon tape works well with our shower wand
