I don't want luxury -- I want a "water miser" that sprays just enough water, just hard enough, to get clean. The Oxygenics models look too fancy for a real boondocker -- too many holes, too much water. The unit that came with my new trailer is ok, but it is still a water waster.

Your recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

we use a hand held shower sprayer; one that we can turn on and off.

If you are trying to conserve water because you are boondocking...

I'd still recommend the Oxygenics ...and stand in a plastic tub and save the grey water to be used for other things...like flushing the toilet, washing the front window or anything else. The Oxygenics shower head has so much more power than the whimpy hand shower nozzle that came with our rig, that I can get my hair washed/rinsed and CLEAN with a lot less water.

If you know anyone with the Oxygenics, see if you can borrow it for one or two showers.

We love ours. I use the little knob on the bottom to shut it down to no more than a dribble.

If we ever get another coach the Oxygenics either goes with us or we immediately get another one.

Our stock shower head worked well but we prefer boondocking and drycamping, so we installed the Oxygenics which provides better spraying pressure while using less water. Never thought of them as being too fancy but they do make a plain white one.

OK -- I am sensing a trend. Now -- which model of the Oxygenics would be the most water-efficient? They make a bunch of them.
