I can also vouch for this shower head, the shower quality is great. I received two for free through my gas utility. If I didn't get the 1.5gpm version for free, I would have bought the 1.25gpm Niagara Earth head. Since I generally take short showers I'm not too concerned over the extra .25GPM but when compared to 2.5gpm, a 1gpm savings is significant. It also allows me to keep the water heater thermostat lower too(less standby losses) since it uses less hot water and the water temperature drops at a much slower rate as the water heater has a much better chance to keep up.
