Walmart & Made in China Strike Again
My old hand held shower head had sprung so many leaks I could wash the walls while I washed myself. So like any good, little consumer I trotted on over to Walmart for a new one. The old one was a Teledyne Waterpik brand and had lasted for at least 12 years so I purchased another of the same brand. I never use the fancy pulsating or other settings just a plain old shower to rinse off the soap is all I need. The new one has just 2 settings; pulsating and shower and at $19.00 it was the right price. I installed it but couldn't tighten it enough to stop the leakage so DH tightened it for me. My first shower was disappointing to say the least. There was next to no water pressure. The water simply trickled out the holes and ran down my arm. I asked DH to take a look at it but had to take a second shower before he got around to it. He fiddled with it but it made no difference so I'm returning it to Walmart in the morning. I have the receipt but the packaging has been tossed. I hope they give me my money back this time. In case you haven't guessed, it was made in China.
