A morning shower is one of the most important rituals of your day. It’s a magic portal that takes you from the land of sleep to the living world. If you’ve ever lived in a place with water that dribbles out of a clogged or broken showerhead, you know how important good water pressure, water direction, and water amount matter. Leave the dribbles behind with our list of the best smart showerheads. The products on this list take the simple act of showering to a whole new level. We’re talking LED lights, multiple jet functions, digital displays, and much more.
The Best Smart Shower Head
1SparkPod Smart Shower Head

The SparkPod Shower Head is a bit of an outcast on this list. As you scroll through the other products, you’ll notice that this one is a bit short of features when compared. The reason? It’s just a simple shower head designed to make your shower more powerful. We decided to include this product first because a lot of people blame poor plumbing and old buildings for their showers not being powerful enough. However, sometimes you just need a new high-quality showerhead. For less than $30, it’s worth a try. If your shower isn’t providing the kind of water power you want, this is the showerhead we’d recommend.
This showerhead does have a few features that make it a great choice if you’re looking for a simple fix. First, you don’t need a professional plumber or any tools to get it working. Simply unscrew your old showerhead and tighten this one back in place. It comes with Teflon-tape and an additional water filter, so you can fit it to any standard shower arm within five minutes. Even if you’re not DIY-inclined, the instructions make it super simple.
Made from ABS plastic
Tools-free installation
Teflon-tape and water filter included
Touch-clean silicone nozzles

2DreamSpa Ultra-Luxury 9 Inch Smart Shower Head
If you’re looking for a budget-friendly combo shower head, this option from DreamSpa is one of the best. It’s similar to the SparkPod Shower Head, just a little more difficult to install. The main difference is the fact that this is a combo, so it has the benefit of a handheld shower, as well. Fortunately, they’ve included a suction cup holder, so you can attach this straight to your shower wall. The Dream Spa 9” Rainfall Shower Head will fit onto any standard overhead shower arm, but you will probably need to buy some Teflon tape to make the installation a success.
One of the main features of this shower combo is the push-button flow control. This revolutionary design allows you to change the flow of the shower while holding the showerhead. The small button on the side of the handheld shower arm gives you the choice between three different shower modes. We also love the fact that both the handheld shower head and the overhead shower have a ton of water jets. This provides a water flow that covers your whole body, so you don’t have to keep rotating.

3MeSun 12 Inch High-Pressure Smart Shower Head
This high-pressure showerhead from MeSun is our Best Value product for a reason. If you’re looking for the cheapest way to upgrade your shower, this is it. It’s a 12-inch shower arm with a waterfall-style overhead shower. It fits onto any standard shower fitting and you don’t need tools to do it. Just take off the old showerhead and tighten this one on. It’s that simple.
The most impressive thing about the MeSun – 12 Inch High-Pressure Showerhead is the water pressure. Contrary to popular belief, you don’t have to settle for the water pressure in your current shower. Many think that burden rests solely on the water pressure in your building, but you can actually make a huge difference with a change of showerhead. This showerhead uses the combination of its ultra-thin and air-in technology that optimizes any water pressure. Basically, whatever water pressure you’re working with, this showerhead will make the most of it. You shouldn’t have to settle for a shower that dribbles and spits.

4ELLO&ALLO LED Smart Shower Head
Here’s another shower panel that will make you feel like you’re at a world-class spa. Similar in design to the Blue Ocean panel, this panel has a more futuristic appeal. There are two reasons for this — it has LED lights in the massage jets and the overhead shower is built into the panel.
Since the ELLO&ALLO LED Shower Panel Tower System has both an overhead shower and a handheld shower, you’re not compromising on functionality. Both of these have different settings and they provide pretty impressive water pressure. One of the big benefits of this shower panel is that you can use two of the functions at once. It will have an effect on the pressure, but it means you can get a full-body shower.

5ELLO&ALLO Stainless Steel Shower Panel Tower System
ELLO&ALLO makes a wide range of different shower panels. While they all have a similar design, each showerhead has its own unique set of features. If you like these shower panels, we’d really recommend looking at the whole range and choosing the features that suit you best.
This shower panel has many of the same features as the above product. The shower panel is a little thinner, making it more suitable for smaller showers. The ELLO&ALLO Stainless Steel Shower Panel Tower System sports an overhead system that sticks out from the panel and shoots out either rainfall or a waterfall shower. This system is covered in LED lights as well, giving it an ultra-modern look.

6ELLO&ALLO Stainless Steel LED Shower Panel Tower System

This is the last shower panel system from ELLO&ALLO on our list. At a quick glance, ELLO&ALLO Stainless Steel Shower Panel Tower System looks almost identical to the other two from this company, but with a few key differences. First, the digital screen is tiny. Compared to the other two large digital screens, this one isn’t impressive. However, this may not be a deal-breaker for some. All of the ELLO&ALLO digital screens run on batteries, and since this one is smaller, it will last much longer. It still tells you the same information — water temperature and shower duration — but is more space- and power-efficient.
The other main difference is the two massage jets. Instead of four or six multiple smaller massage jets, they’ve installed two larger ones with different settings. That means you get a much more powerful massage, but it covers less of your body. If we had one complaint, it’s the placement of these two massage jets. If you’re an average-sized guy, the water jets will hit your chest and the top of your legs. It’s still pretty nice, but it would be good if you could aim the jets.

7DreamSpa LED Shower Head
Take your shower a step further and light it up with LED lighting. Similar to the lighting found in high-end spas, the LED bulbs light up the water in three different colors: red, blue, or green. Even when you’re showering in the daytime, it provides a subtle yet relaxing ambiance. You might be wondering, how are these LED lights powered? Quite often with products like this, the lights are battery-powered and need to be changed regularly. DreamSpa has opted for a more modern solution — the lighting is powered by the running shower water!
The DreamSpa LED Shower Head has multiple different modes that you can select by twisting the showerhead itself — hydro-mist, pulsating massage, economy rain, power rain, and water-saving pause mode. Between these different modes, you can treat yourself to an amazing home spa experience with your favorite body wash. You would think that this level of sophistication would be difficult to install, but it’s just as easy as the other showerhead featured here. The installation requires no tools, just unscrewing the old showerhead and replacing it with this upgrade. It’s also protected by a limited one-year warranty and is backed by the amazing customer service from DreamSpa that we mentioned earlier.

Smart Showerhead Buying Guide & FAQ
How We Chose Our Selection Of Smart Showerheads
Reviews - When we’re choosing products to feature in our Buying Guides, we always check the Amazon Customer Reviews first. Even before we’ve researched the product, this gives us a taste of what it’s like to use this product daily. It doesn’t matter how many impressive features a product has: if people don’t like it, it’s not going in one of our Buying Guides. The great thing about customer reviews on Amazon is that they’re 100% honest - customers are allowed to be anonymous and can, therefore, tell you what they really think of a product. We also check other expert reviews, if they’re available. These are less likely to be unbiased, but it’s still a great opportunity to see it from another angle.
Price - Price is an important factor in any purchasing decision. You shouldn’t buy a product just because it’s cheap, but it’s important to not get ripped off. We select three products in every Buying Guide to be our Best Choice (best overall product), Best Value (the product that provides the best value for money), and Premium Pick (the product we’d choose if we didn’t have a budget).
Features To Look For In Smart Showerheads
Display - Some of the showerheads on this list come with a display that lets you see the temperature of the water and the length of time you’ve been in the shower. This feature isn’t essential by any means, but it’s still pretty cool to have. The temperature reading is great if you’re picky about what temperature you feel is the most comfortable. You can experiment until you find your ideal temperature and never have to guess again.
Controls - All of the shower systems we’ve selected have a traditional dial to control the shower and the temperature. It’s possible to find button-operated showers but we find that they’re more difficult to use effectively. From the control panel, you can also sometimes select between different shower modes For example, the DreamSpa LED Shower has Power Rain, Pulsating Massage, Hydro-Mist, Economy Rain, and Water-Saving.
Timers - If you’re on a tight schedule, you might want to set your shower to a timer. Instead of wasting 20 minutes of your morning, you can give yourself a time-limit so you can get on with the rest of the day. This function isn’t for everybody, but it’s still pretty cool.
Installation - Some smart showerheads require professional installation, whereas some you can do yourself with a simple wrench. This is different for every product; you can usually find an idea of the installation in the customer review section on Amazon. If you don’t want to get a professional in, search for the words ‘tools-free installation’.
