Low-flow shower heads suck

I may be a bit grumpy this morning because a leaky faucet kept me up all night but I think many will agree with me that low-flow shower heads suck. There is nothing worse than trying to shower the morning after a sleepless night only to suffer the torture of a low-flow shower head. I understand that there are environmental reasons, i.e., preserving our planet’s limited water supply, but we shouldn’t have to suffer every morning. The same applies for low-flow faucets and toilettes which cause more headaches than solve the problem at hand.

The way I see it, taking a shower with the low-flow shower head takes me longer than using a regular shower head. It takes longer because it is next to impossible to get the soap washed away when there is hardly any water hitting my body. It is possible that I am just the victim of a low quality showerhead and that taking the time to research and purchase a high quality one will solve my problems. True, but I am renting a place temporarily for a few weeks and there is not much I can do at the moment to improve this situation.
