Your trusted Australian bathroom specialists since 2020
BestShower.com.au was born from a simple frustration that many Australian homeowners share: the overwhelming confusion of choosing a shower head online. With countless options available, misleading product descriptions, and reviews that often seemed generic or unhelpful, we knew there had to be a better way to help Australians make informed decisions about their bathroom upgrades.
Our founding team consists of bathroom renovation enthusiasts, plumbing industry professionals, and everyday Australians who have experienced firsthand the difference a quality shower head can make. We've installed hundreds of shower heads across various Australian homes, tested water pressure in everything from heritage Queenslanders to modern high-rise apartments, and dealt with the unique challenges of Australian plumbing standards and our notoriously hard water in many regions.
What started as a personal project to document our shower head experiences has grown into Australia's go-to resource for bathroom fixture advice. We understand the importance of WELS ratings for water efficiency, the compatibility requirements of standard Australian plumbing connections, and the real-world performance differences between budget and premium shower heads.
We believe that everyone deserves a great shower experience without needing to become a plumbing expert. Our mission is to cut through the marketing jargon and provide honest, practical advice that helps Australians choose the right shower head for their specific needs, water pressure conditions, and budget. We don't just list products; we explain the technology, discuss the pros and cons, and help you understand what actually matters when making your purchase.
Every piece of content on BestShower.com.au is created with the Australian homeowner in mind. We consider factors like our varying water pressure across different states, the prevalence of hard water in certain regions, and the specific fitting standards used in Australian bathrooms. When we discuss installation, we're talking about Australian taps and pipes, not generic international standards.
We take a hands-on approach to our content. Our team has personally handled and tested many of the shower heads we recommend, evaluating spray patterns, build quality, and ease of installation. For products we haven't tested directly, we conduct extensive research, analysing genuine customer feedback, manufacturer specifications, and expert opinions from the Australian plumbing industry.
Transparency is central to everything we do. We clearly disclose our affiliate relationships and never let commercial considerations influence our recommendations. When a budget shower head outperforms a premium option, we'll tell you. When a popular product has known issues, we won't hide that information. Our reputation depends on the trust of Australian homeowners, and we take that responsibility seriously.
