Porter In2ition 2-in-1 Single-Handle 5-Spray Shower Faucet in Oil Rubbed Bronze (Valve Included)

New purchase 04/03/2023. Firstly, Home Depot delivered next day as promised. Thank you, Home Depot. Great customer service, as usual. Secondly, I don't want to insult Delta, I have used them for years in the kitchen and bath and they make quality products that last for years. The Delta shower and faucet I'm switching out now are due to a new shower install. The Delta Porter unit is very beautiful, nice detailing and the oil rubbed finish is exactly what I wanted, but, and this was disappointing to me...the handset and coil are PLASTIC. This shower head was a fairly expensive item compared to others I shopped. Aesthetically, I'm very pleased and I like how the handset sits inside the shower head itself, but the plastic is really tacky. Also, the plastic coil is too lightweight so it doesn't hang down in a nice drape; it's just kind of suspended in this stiff loop. I'm hoping in time it will straighten out. I'm suspecting that most shower and bathroom accessories are also manufactured with plastic, but I've had many Delta products and expected more. Just to add, I purchased the entire Delta Porter line for my bath: paper holder, shelf, towel holder, 4" faucet, and they are very beautiful, high quality, and not too much plastic. If you are looking for the oil rubbed finish that is both retro and modern, the Porter line is perfect. It works especially well for small bathrooms as the accessories are not oversized. I did not install the unit myself, but the contractor had it finished in short time and seemed to have no difficulties. He installed all accessories in under an hour. I don't think over time I will warm to the plastic, but I'm hoping the function and beauty of the unit will outweigh this disappointment.

Love this oil-rubbed bronze shower faucet. It has so many choices ranging from the obvious hot/cold to the water delivery rate, several different spray choices as well as hand held. It is beautiful and looks great in my new shower. Note: I used a professional installer so I can't comment on ease of installation.

Love our new shower! Does a great job!

We had our neighbor who is a plumber install this shower head. Love the way it looks. Easy to operate and water pressure is perfect. I’d highly recommend this item

Easy installation. Looks good works great

One more task taken care of. In the remodel saga, we ordered this Delta shower only kit in oil rubbed bronze. It came pretty quick and packaged “ok”. The contents were sort of everywhere in the box but nothing was damaged. The kit does come with pretty good instructions and the rough in valve. Since I was replacing an outdated unit, I cut both copper supply lines and the copper shower head supply line. I used brass female adapters for each and sweat the rest of the plumbing in tact. No leaks, and the unit functions perfectly. But here’s my issue: the shower head and handheld unit are both plastic, they work well, but they are plastic. The hose that connects to the handheld unit is vinyl. It was rolled up tightly in the box and it is still holding a curl and doesn’t hang “natural”. We’ve used it a few times and it’s not relaxing yet. It doesn’t harm the function, but it looks cheap. I might end up buying the higher grade replacement hose or a different shower head assembly.

I love delta products to start with, this came as a package unit a mixing valve with cartridge and all the trim pieces. They all fit together well and look great. I love that you don’t have to go and find a universal valve or try and match a cartridge to fit etc. it’s all in one! I as a contractor know what a pain it can be to find parts to fit. This valve also can be used with other delta finishes if you change your mind later on a real plus.

I replaced a 6" Delta showerhead with the Porter ORB finish with In2ition. The unit was very simple to install. The look is great as well. Even though the unit has a life time guarantee, I have concerns about the plastic material that the head is constructed of. Popping the hand-held unit in and out over time might become an issue. Our shower head arm was placed almost 6.5 ft high and I'm 5 ft 1in, reaching the lever for the spray settings on the unit is an issue for me. There were no operational instructions in the box. I just moved the lever and pushed the button on the hand-held unit to see what they did. I found the force of water with both the outer ring and hand-held is better the original 6 inch head but the best pressure is with the hand-held unit while mounted. Haven't really used the hand-held unit for much at this time. By the way, the shipping box was slightly damaged on arrival and most of the parts were just lose in the box but I didn't notice any damage to the unit as a whole.

First of all I don’t understand the interest in the oil rubbed bronze color. It is borderline black with some bronze-brown smears and a difficult color to coordinate in general. Color aside, I was shocked and disappointed that this delta shower head is plastic! It is not metal, it is plastic! The handheld shower head, while a great idea, was a little difficult and clumsy to use and disengage from the main shower head. I thought it was magnetic but it is not. Overall, the product works fine but I was just slightly let down by the material and build quality compared to the price and brand name.

I am using the Delta Porter Shower Faucet in a very small mountain remodel I am doing. I like the removable head to accomplish other cleaning tasks that arise in day to day life. I have yet to use a shower with the secondary head that supplies continuous water, that will be a nice feature. I have yet to install this unit yet as evidenced by the pictures. I would like to update my review when the remodel is complete. I feel like my expectations will be met.
