      TIL all Americans have showers with multiple pressure settings

      I’ve only been an American for a few decades, still kinda new at it

          I usually only see those in hotels. Every place I’ve lived in allowed the adjustment of pressure and temperature. If you live in a place that doesn’t, you can also buy shower heads that can adjust the pressure btw.

      There are plenty of options in the US for adjustable pressure. Mine has pressure on the big lever, and temperature on a smaller level. It even has pressure compensation when somebody flushes a toilet, so there’s no temperature change. But the type you show there does seem to be the default selection for new construction.

      That’s not true at all. The ignorance in this thread is absolutely astonishing. It’s like you went to the US once, spent a week in Florida and now somehow think you’re an expert in American homebuilding techniques and practices. WTF?

      European here, I’ve had showers with multiple pressure and flow levels since… ever.
