Does anyone out there have any experience with these types of "super shower fixtures"? I'm curious about a few things. How difficult is the install? Our contractor will be doing it, but I prefer to avoid things that take a crazy amount of install work. Is regular residential water pressure enough to drive the body nozzles and the shower head at the same time? It's a new house, so I'm not sure about the pressure there, but I'm guessing it to be between 90 and 100 psi.

I'm skeptical of these things, but the wife thinks they are cool. Anyone? Thanks.

The pressures you quoted are high pressure, but that will be plenty for the application you are wanting to install.

Those shower units look complicated but they really aren't. They are quite simple and they do make for a comfortable shower, just it seems like a jacuzzi tub would be more effective in comfort without fighting gravity.
