Shower Head Recommendations

I'm looking for a shower head that has some oomf...something short of a pressure washer.
I had a Waterpik I got from Costco. I was able to take aerator out of it and it was awesome...stinging spray. Hard water killed it. I can't find the same model. I tried another Waterpik, took the aerator out, but it must have had two...nothing more than tap water flow. My wife bought a Kohler. Terrible with no way of getting to aerator.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have been using the same Delta-brand Navy shower head for 20 years. Think it was $8 but always makes great pressue, just soak it in CLR every few years and it keeps going.

they are making the aerator/restrictors impossible to remove now. I got new kitchen faucets and you can unscrew the aerator but the restrictor is pressed in. Annoying
something simple like suggested above is probably your best bet. When I get a chance I’m going to order another set of aerators for my fixtures and go medieval on them and see if I can break the plastic piece free

Just bought a WaterPik with hand held sprayer. It’s exactly what I have been looking for. Used to have an old shower head that would knock you down. This was years ago. Couldn’t find one. Bought the WaterPik and had to remove filter/pressure reducer with needle nose pliers. Turned it on and it’s like a fire hose.

Check out Hansgrohe. The Croma 100 Classic Showerhead is available in 2.5 GPM configuration with several different metal finishes.

Bought this in January and I've been happy with it. The restrictor is easily removed. It was pricey though. HammerHead Shower

Bought this on your rec. Very happy with it. Did not remove the regulator and pressure is still great.

I bought a cheap Delta handheld from Home Depot recently. The restrictor was easy to remove in it.
As others have said, find one where the restrictor is removed easily. Most have a little black rubber one that can be removed. Once removed, you'll have plenty of flow.

Just bought new showerheads and noticed this as well. Nothing a simple drill bit couldn't fix. Just drilled a 1/8" hole through the aerator/restrictor and we've got a perfect amount of flow/pressure now.
