Hello RebeccaC and thank you for the feedback you posted on the Home Depot website. We are sorry to hear that the Moen Attract with Magnetix 6-Spray 3.75 in. Single Wall Mount Handheld Adjustable Shower Head in Matte Black did not meet your expectations. The hose included with the 26000BL should soften over time with use. If the hose is touching the wall, we recommend adjusting the showerhead so it's higher up or installing a longer shower arm, such as the Moen 161951BL, S122BL, or 123815BL. Our product specialists are available for pre-purchase, installation and warranty assistance. They can be reached at 1-800-289-6636 and are currently available Monday through Friday from 8:00 am – 7:00 pm Eastern Time.
