The real question is how much worse of an experience that shower is. "energy efficient" tree saving hand blowdryers in bathrooms end up not ACTUALLY drying your hands!
Getting technology right isn't easy. Existing water saving shower solutions are indeed worse.
This shower has more pressure than a regular shower and the water is more clean than a regular shower. The water also is better temperature controlled than a regular shower. You even get a smart phone app for your shower but that's likely not the most important thing.
The only usability issue that you have to change the filters from time to time.
I think we need a discussion thread for the californian drought going on. I would like to compile information in the main post and would like help compiling it. If we really are proud to be effective altruists then this is an area we should really figure out.
Any one have any good ideas on how we can help?
