Smart Design: Moen’s Magnetix Showerhead Mount

One micro-annoyance I experience daily is placing the shower wand back in its bracket. The height of my showerhead mount makes it an ergonomically awkward operation, and the top-heavy wand can tilt and slip out of the collar if you didn’t register it right (it’s easy to misjudge when there’s soap in your eyes). You can see in the photo at left that the fit is poor. Every once in a while I’ll bump into the hose, knocking the wand out of the bracket. 

This, below, looks like a much better design:

It makes so much more sense to mount the showerhead at its heaviest point. I also think this would be good for shorter folks or kids, as you needn’t reach your hand above the point of connection to slide it into a collar, but can instead just click it on from beneath.

The design is by Moen, and it’s called the Magnetix line.
