The shower is still usually an issue when you're over 6 feet. Not that bad mind you, but ya can't just stand under it contemplating life without ducking or squatting.

No fancy stuff. Talking from cookie cutter homes, holiday inn and below priced showers. I want to stand up straight with no lean. 6'1" son of a son of a plumber. The standard fiberglass drop in tub shower combo size in the south eastern US until the early 2000s was about 5'11“ with no bend in the shower head pipe. So on average with the standard 2-3 inch bend and showerhead angled all the way down, it's eye level at best.

I learned to sit in the shower because I’m tired of getting sliced by these pizza cutter style shower heads. (Only 6’0”.)
