It’s not often shower head innovations catch my eye recently ~ but the latest Flipside from Kohler is definitely an interesting shift from the “Handshowers” (ok, i had no idea that was a term till i was reading the press release, but thinking about it, i dont know what i’d normally call it?) where you normally turn the ring on the showerhead to switch between different settings… and the water always comes from the same sprayface. In the case of the Flipside, there are 4 different sprayfaces, and each mode has a K name

Additionally – “The Flipside handshower is available in three design options. The elegant, flowing lines of Flipside 01 complement nearly any bathroom décor; Flipside 02’s contemporary geometric lines are for lovers of modern design; and Flipside 03 makes a statement with its black handle. Finish options include Polished Chrome for Flipside 01, 02 and 03, and Vibrant Brushed Nickel for Flipside 01 and 02.”
I’m definitely curious to see how the different decors looks ~ and whether the Flipside and it’s K modes are really the low barrier entry for home owners, or even apartment dwellers to for a “quick and affordable way to introduce the features of a custom home spa to your own home” are the press release mentions.
