This is my shower. It has 12 heads and consumes ten thousand gallons of deionized water per minute. It costs four hundred thousand dollars to use this shower... for twelve seconds.

30 gallons per minute flow rate, house plumbing has to be upgraded to an 1 ½" mainline to support it lmfao
Pioneers are not daunted by mere tech specs
Of course. For nothing is impossible if you have enough money to throw at the problem.
Honey, we can't run the washing machine or wash our hands for a new minutes. The Jones' are showering again.
And immediately illegal in the state of California lol
Need a huge tank in the attic, I'm sure the structure can support tons of extra weight!
When I have a baby and it poops itself, it will be placed in the pressure wash room for sanitisation
In our house that’s the dishwasher.
Not the washing machine?
Nah, you only try that once - too many bruises.
Not to mention smashed plates.
Honestly, at least for us just taking the baby with us into the shower was much easier and more relaxing than bathing it.
I would be so afraid of dropping the soapy baby
Until we knew how to hold it well we'd only enter the showers together and one would hold the child while the other one would wash it.
Sure, but how many showers are you talking a day?
My daughter loved it when we held her with her scalp just under the shower. She would keep pushing backwards in my arms until I got it just right
Imagine being short and getting waterboarded every time you wanna shower. Good times
that explains why my kids won't shower! thank you!
For those who want a bathing experience that feels like a decontamination after an industrial accident.
Only if the bottom is a turntable so I can spin.
Lots of water/energy wastage, if they do not have an efficient water recycling system tho
I wonder though, if this could get you clean in 30-60 seconds how much water usage would it be compared to a regular shower. Bonus efficiency if it can spray soap instead of applying it manually.
I wonder if it's like a dish washer or clothes washer and just has a certain amount of water it uses per shower and it recycles that water back onto you the whole time

I've got to try one of these for my anniversary. They have them at some fancy spas. I think i got to be in there like 5 minutes, which doesn't seem like much but holy shit is the water pressure unreal, and everywhere all at once. It's very stimulating and it'd be awesome to have one at home but no one's home plumbing and hot water tank is up to the task.
Yeah. You'd need some type of system that held and heated water separately and then pressurized it so more. It would only last as long as the tank did.
Also the top front spouts seem a little intense. I've not seen blades of water before.

Ooooh I'd love to see a diagram of the plumbing.... maybe two, idea and actual haha
RIP lather
For the person who always complains that there isn't enough pressure or coverage in their shower.......
too tall, cleanest torso ever. too short, we hardly knew thee, sorry about the water boarding (as mentioned earlier by @PatFussy).
Human pressure washing chamber. I bet that shower head starts spinning too haha
Seems annoying if you're trying not to get your hair wet. Or imagine if you had to use a shower chair lmao.
The superior shower configuration is just the humble detachable handheld showerhead. Put the water right where you need it.

I tried a shower once with those jets coming from the sides. Tickled like crazy and I had to turn them off.
But I like my skin...
California is coming to arrest you!
