Hi folks, does anyone on here have any opinions or knowledge of the Eco camel shower heads. ( the original ones)?
Have a 2002 swift challenger but shower is pretty pants. Seen these heads advertised in mags and at shows but does anyone have any experience of them? Not sure if it will make a great difference to our flow. Are they more efficient in newer caravans?
Any thoughts most welcome.
Cheers👍

Got one in our new Challenger and it is excellent, much better than the shower we had in our Elddis.

But, it`s a newer van, different shower, different water heating system, different water pump. So is it the shower head, or any or all of the changes? Your guess is as good as mine.

We have one, they won't improve water flow though only a faster pump can do that. They do make the water jets stronger through adding air.

Worth checking what pump you have. We changed ours to a high flow version for about £40 and that's made a huge difference. We have a whale pump and system.

Our Bailey has one,they are very good.We also use one on our home shower as it does seem to aerate the water making it a pleasant shower.Supposed to save water too.

We have the Eco Camel Orbit shower head in our new Elddis an really like it in the fact that it saves on water and is still powerful enough.

Our Bailey Pursuit has one as standard and is brilliant. Our shower at home is very poor so I tried the eco camel and it's still poor :-(

We have one in the van and another at home. The one in the van made huge difference - a much better shower experience! At home it is more or a water saver. Son has one fitted to what was a very poor electric shower - it is now much better flow.

Had one at home, I didn't like it, it was noisy, didn't seem to jet the suds off too well and then packed up after a few weeks. Went back to the old shower head.

Thanks everyone for getting back to me. Might try it ( they said I can return it if I don't get on with it). Upgrading van next year to a much newer one so hopefully be better on that one. Don't really want to change pump on current one at min.
Much appreciated anyway👍
