WENKO water-saving rain head, Ø 22.5 cm, under 8 l/min at 3 bar review
The only rain head in this hub that publishes its flow WITH the pressure — under 8 litres a minute at 3 bar — and the only one whose saving can therefore be checked.
The bottom line The head to buy on evidence rather than adjectives. Its 40 % headline still has no baseline; its 8 l/min at 3 bar does the work instead.
What you are getting
A round ABS rain head of Ø 22.5 cm in black, with a fitted water-saving insert, a brass ball joint, a universal ½ in connection and stated suitability for a ceiling arm.
The figure that makes this page worth reading
Under 8 litres per minute at 3 bar.
Almost every water-saving claim in this catalogue is a percentage with nothing behind it. This one publishes the litres and the pressure they were measured at, which is what a specification actually is.
And the headline that still is not one
“Up to 40 % saving.” Against what? No baseline head, no baseline flow. The 8 l/min figure below it does the real work; the percentage adds nothing.
The energy argument, stated correctly
Less hot water drawn means less energy to heat it. That is the honest version of a water-saving claim: the saving on the bill is mostly the heating, not the water.
The material trade
ABS, with a brass ball joint. Lighter and cheaper than the stainless heads in this hub, with metal where the pivot has to hold. What is not stated is whether the nozzles are silicone, which decides how they behave in hard water.
Availability
On sale from 31 € to 48 € on the German, Italian and Spanish Amazon stores at the time of checking.
Also on sale on the British Amazon store, in the local currency: the range above is measured on the euro stores only.
The French Amazon listing is priced above 1.6× the cheapest store, which is normally a reshipping offer rather than a local price; it is left out of the range above.
Listed but with no offer on the American Amazon store — the reference exists there and nobody is currently selling it.

What we like, and what we don't
Strengths
Publishes a flow rate AND the pressure it applies at — the only head on this page to do so
A brass ball joint on an ABS body, and stated suitability for ceiling mounting
The energy argument is stated properly: less hot water drawn means less energy used
Compromises
The "up to 40 %" headline has no stated baseline, even though the 8 l/min figure behind it does
ABS rather than the stainless steel of the cheaper heads in this hub
The nozzles are not described as silicone, so the hard-water maintenance is unclear

Questions people actually ask
Is 8 l/min enough for a decent shower?
It is around the level most modern water-saving heads work at, and it is the figure to compare against your existing head — which, if it is old and unrestricted, may be moving twice that. The saving is real; whether it feels enough depends on the head's design as much as the number.
Why does the pressure matter in that figure?
Because flow rises with pressure. "8 l/min" alone is not a specification. "Under 8 l/min at 3 bar" is one, and it is the only such statement on this page.
