High Sierra Classic Fixed Shower Head review

The High Sierra Classic is the cheapest verified head here and the strongest option for hard water. High Sierra's store lists the chrome Classic without a trickle valve at $44.95, down from $56.19. Instead of dozens of small jets it uses a single patented nozzle that collides water into large droplets, and the company guarantees it will never clog from hard water, sand or rust. The head is solid lead-free metal, built in the USA from domestic and imported parts, and sold in 1.25, 1.5, 1.8, 2.0 and 2.5 gpm versions, so it fits every state cap High Sierra lists. It is WaterSense and WaterMark certified, and the threads connect without Teflon tape. Trade-offs: there is only one spray pattern, standard models carry a 2 year warranty, and the push-button trickle valve adds $10. We compared documented features and published prices and did not run pressure tests.
