How to Choose the Perfect Shower Set

When it comes to picking out a shower set, it’s important to bear in mind the context of your bathroom. Do you have lots of space, or do you need to get a little creative with a tight squeeze? What are the other fixtures like? What style are you going for? All these questions and more come into play when you’re considering what set to get. Luckily, flexible shower sets exist that make it easy to customize your shower and achieve both the look and functionality that you’re going for with relative ease!

No two bathrooms are the same, and that’s why shower set manufacturers, such as Pearl, create flexible sets that can be adjusted to fit your needs. They have both the softer, rounded Madison set and the more modern, angular Ethan set available in seven different combinations of fixtures to suit your needs.

In order to achieve a seamless look, you want your shower to match the rest of your fixtures. Take a look at your bathroom, and consider what you already have. Is your faucet square and modern, or does it have a more fluid profile? How about your door hardware, your towel bars and robes hooks, even the accents on your toilet? All of these should be considered when picking out a matching fixture. Luckily, they don’t have to be an exact match, since some variety can keep the room interesting, but you don’t want anything that’s too jarring. If your fixtures are very contemporary, you will probably want to go with something like the Ethan set; if they’re more classic and traditional, then the Madison is probably your best bet.

Once you’ve determined which style will compliment your existing accessories, it’s time to choose what combination of fixtures you need. If you’re low on space, you might consider sticking with a simple shower head, whereas if you have a spacious shower-tub combination, you might as well get a shower head, tub filler, and hand shower. A hand shower can also be great if you have a nice big tub, but no shower; it can be used to get those hard to reach spots with its flexible hose. Whatever set up you have, there is a perfect combination that will let you maximize your space and turn your shower into a little slice of heaven!

With all this in mind, you’re prepared to tackle selecting a shower set for your next renovation and come out of it with your dream bathroom! Remember, the most important thing to consider is your own personal preferences, and to choose what’s right for you!
