Showerheads are easy to remove and replace. Even if it's not perfectly sealed, it's not a catastrophe; at most you have is a drip while showering -- and that just drips right into your shower and down the drain.
I don't think I even used any seal with my new showerhead. I just screwed it on.
Living in a nanny state, eh? Maybe ship it to a friend in a wet place like Seattle, and have them ship it on to you?
Our house came with a Moen shower head that was weak at first. I unscrewed it from the pipe, pulled out a disk that seemed to act as a filter/choke on the water flow, and then it worked great.
I'll bet you can find a bunch of videos on this subject on youtube if you look around.
My husband modifies something inside the shower head so the water flows freely.
I don't know if I live in a water saver state, but seems like you can't buy ANYTHING that has enough water flow anymore. I miss toilets that actually gave you enough water to flush. I hate the new high efficiency washers. They use less water and don't let you have HOT water. I always washed clothes in hot water to kill bacteria but they changed it so when it's set on hot the water is only warm. I have to manually shut off the cold water to get hot water to wash clothes. And I wish we had kept our old Maytag dishwasher. It got dishes sparkling clean. Our new use-less-water dishwasher doesn't work as well and leaves spots on everything.
And those appliances worked right and lasted for 15 or 20 years. Not anymore.

Disagree. My $40 Water-Pik delivers all the water I could ask for (with long hair).
I've had crappy water-saver showerheads and handhelds. Don't buy cheap and don't buy builder/no-name crap. And, for some of you, learn to live with less than a 10gpm waterfall.
Never was in the Navy but someone once called this thing a navy shower head LINK It's great!
This one says Delta and sells for $10 but looks the same as the $5 no name model I've bought.
The real savings feature is the valve to turn off the flow while lathering and runnnig water only to rinse.
And yeah it does a fine job for pressure (even if the house has low pressure)
I'd post the but drag and drop isn't grabbing.
I live in water conservation state and ordered high pressure shower head from Amazon that does pretty good job. It has a built-in removable 2.5 GPM flow restrictor, but the pressure is good without removing it. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07P6MY9NX
Here is another one in my guest bath: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B015MMA1Q8
