Two is better than one, don't you think? I mean, that old saying really has held true through the years and even more so as we look for ways to simplify our daily lives. Sometimes swapping out single functioning products for products that do double duty can leave you only feeling like you get half of what you were hoping for, but not with the Delta In2ition® Two-in-One Shower. With Delta’s In2ition® Two-in-One Shower, you’ll get the refreshing shower experience you want, and the versatility you need.

The Delta In2ition® Two-in-One Shower combines a shower head and a handshower, giving you the ability to perform numerous tasks beyond just showering.

I've had my In2ition shower head for about five years now and couldn't imagine ever returning to a traditional shower head. While there is a detachable handshower feature on the Delta In2ition, I mostly use it at the same time as the shower head, where you can get the warmth and flexibility of two shower heads at once, creating the most perfect shower experience.

The MagnaTite® Docking uses a powerful integrated magnet that holds the shower head in place for easy docking every time. There's no rogue spray or moving streams of water, just perfect docking every time, making for easy use together or apart. A gentle tug allows you to remove the hand sprayer.

If I want to use the handshower only {mostly for dog washing!}, there's an easy diverter lever that's conveniently positioned on the side of the shower head. If you’ve ever washed a big dirty dog, you’ll know how helpful this feature is! I can direct the spray and reach all those hard-to-reach areas. It makes bath time for the dog so much easier for both of us and I no longer end up totally soaked!

There are so many options! You can easily switch between the shower head only, handshower only, or shower head AND handshower together feature. All you need to do is use that diverter lever to select where you want the spray coming from.

Conserving water is important to me, so I appreciate that there is a trickle flow setting for shaving and lathering. You can press pause on your shower so that you can do whatever shower tasks that need your attention, and then easily restart it again with the temperature right where you left off. This spray setting not only allows you to conserve water, but you can also worry less about depleting the hot water supply and focus more on enjoying your shower experience. Trust me, your family will thank you!

Did I mention it is easy to clean? With the Touch-Clean® spray holes, you can quickly and easily wipe away any calcium and lime buildup with the touch of a finger. There's no need to soak or use chemical cleaners.

You can get a beautiful and functional shower head that does double duty!

Don't believe me? Check out the options.

While you may not use the handheld shower feature daily, it is nice to have the versatility when you do need it. 

Want to know some of my favorite things that I use the 2-in-1 shower head for? 

If you have a dog, bath time is so much easier with a 2-in-1 shower head. You can direct the water where it needs to go and the dog gets washed not the other way around. I can easily water all of my house plants. I simply gather them up and put them in the shower basin and then they drip dry before I wipe the base of the plant and put them back into their spot in the house. I can use the 2-in-1 shower to help provide a massage spray for sore muscles, which to be honest, is happening more and more lately! You can direct the pressure and the spray to help ease those aches and pains. And finally, I use it to deep clean my shower. Is it weird to anyone else that you have to clean your shower? 14-year-old me thinks it’s weird, but that soap scum builds up and having a shower head you can remove makes deep cleaning easy!

No one wants to take a cold shower willingly, so the key to any great shower is warmth. The engineers designed a shower head that sculpts water into a unique high-velocity wave pattern that gives you three times the coverage of a standard shower head. This gives you the feeling of a warmer, more drenching shower without using more water. Genius right?!

Sometimes, the most relaxing part of your day will be your shower. One of the easiest ways to upgrade your shower routine and give you that relaxing experience at home is by updating your shower head. Here are some other ways I sneak in some upgrades to my routine to get out of the ho-hum of everyday.

Essential Oils

You can add a few drops of your favorite essential oil to the shower basin or into your favorite unscented bath and body products.

Hang Eucalyptus

Your local specialty grocery store often carries live eucalyptus in their floral section. Hang some in your shower around your showerhead and enjoy the aroma. You can enjoy it fresh for weeks.

Light a Candle

Changing the lighting in your bathroom can automatically create a more relaxing space. Light a candle and enjoy!

Add Some Music

I love my waterproof speaker! It’s funny how music changes my mood. There are lots of Bluetooth options so you can pair up your favorite music for a relaxing break.

The long answer...

With a huge assortment and variety of finishes and styles, and with a range of innovations that will meet all your needs, you really can't go wrong with a combination shower head. Not only are they water-efficient, but they are also versatile. Delta's shower heads and handshowers offer options with massage or a rain shower head style for a more spa-like escape. You also get the versatility of a hand-held shower head you can use for everything from cleaning pets to watering plants and everything in between. You'll hardly know how you lived without it!

With Delta, you can always find your preferred style, finish and technology easily so that you can create the perfect shower experience at home.

The short answer...

If you have kids or pets, why wouldn't you get a combination shower head? The answer is yes!

If you want a shower head that is multifunctional and easy to clean, then the answer is also a resounding yes!

The Delta In2ition® Two-in-One Shower Head is easy to install. When you are dealing with water in your home, I often err on the side of caution and would generally recommend you hire a professional, but installation is easy and can often be done in just a few minutes. There's no need to go behind the wall for installation, you simply screw the Delta shower head onto your existing standard shower arm. You'll get an automatic upgrade in minutes! You can thank me later.
