Moxie: The Showerhead that Sings


MoxieShowerheadOne of the best and most memorable gifts I can remember receiving as a teen was my first shower radio. I absolutely loved to sing; in the car, my bedroom, the shower… I even performed shows in the front yard for my siblings, cousins and neighbors. That is, until I was old enough to learn about video cameras and sweet, glorious, shameful reality - I was terrible. Everyone had seen it all along and now I too was aware. Since at the time I was still too young to drive, I quickly exiled my songbird sessions solely to the solace of the shower, the only place I could feel truly comfortable being utterly terrible. Even as an adult I still love to sing in the shower, and Kohler’s Moxie Showerhead now provides the perfect setting for just such a secret show.

MoxieShowerhead1Huge kudos are due to the folks at plumbing-fixture design company Kohler for coming up with what is, in my opinion, the greatest bathroom invention since indoor plumbing. The Moxie showerhead + wireless speaker brings a virtual concert into your shower experience with a showerhead that streams music from your smartphone, tablet, or otherwise Bluetooth-enabled device. Not only does the Moxie attach to your showerhead, it actually looks like a showerhead and has a wireless speaker that detaches for easy recharging. The speaker itself is secured to the head’s center with a magnet, making it easy to pop off after use, and also making it completely portable for streaming around the rest of your house. Kohler estimates that the 1.5W speaker can deliver up to seven hours of playback per battery charge.

The sprayface features 60 angled nozzles that deliver the “full, enveloping spray you’ve come to expect from a Kohler showerhead”. And if all that still isn’t enough for you, you can go one step further and opt for the Moxie rainhead + wireless speaker, which delivers the same Bluetooth speaker capability but with a warm, rain-like spray delivered by 80 angled nozzles designed to create a spa-like shower experience.
