But what about the pressure??

[@9inchnail]

We thought about pressure and are really happy about our 4.7 rating

[@surajacharya6790]

pressure is about 4.7 ratings

[@austingeorge6659]

They probably had no data. Also, it's bad to say on TV that you half the pressure.

[@EricK-bw2mj]

Bye bye

[@Justin-uc8sc]

Half the pressure at least. If not less in the furthest head from the water line.

[@Darkknight0777]

The way he dodged the question, makes them seem dubious.

[@pepsico815]

It's clear they knew they'd be asked about it, then plan on deflecting to a 4.7 star rating. So sketchy

[@kendrickyay]

they did, twice. It's a nice concept but if the pressure is weak on both ends then it isn't that nice of a product.

[@tandemshower]

It's just a bad question. There's no good way to answer without sounding biased. By allowing our thousands of reviews to speak on our behalf, we tried to provide a more objective response. We just launched on Amazon and have 4.8 stars there already too. Plus, just look at the water pressure in the stage set - it's clearly awesome ;)

[@iizou1738]

​@@tandemshower it's not a bad question though? she's putting herself in the shoes of the costumer, and you admitted on the show it's valid concern that you and many potential customers both had. just sounded so weirdly evasive lmao. she asked a very direct question and you gave the answer to a different one. saying "it does reduce the pressure, but not so much that our customers aren't happy with the product. 4.8 stars + this is our return rate etc" literally would've been fine because it feels more honest than skipping over what she asked entirely

[@tandemshower]

@@iizou1738 Lol you may not know this but pitches are longer than 8 minutes. We're up there for like 40 minutes. Obviously all of those points are raised. The pitch then gets edited down to amplify the drama to achieve whatever their marketing goals are. Anyway, appreciate all the feedback. Looking forward to when you go up and pitch ;)

Kevin is right in this one. When somebody else makes an offer, Mark will swoop in and say this is a bad deal. When Mark offers a deal, take it or leave it non negotiable.

Mark was clearly trying to distract them at the end from making a bad deal before leaving lol

[@KLBL-dp8mc]

I thought the exact same thing! Especially after he literally told them they’re insane for offering a deal at 13% less than what Kevin offered them 😂

[@vegapreferred9344]

@@KLBL-dp8mcisn’t offering less % better?

[@KLBL-dp8mc]

@@vegapreferred9344 yeah but even at the less % they offered to Kevin, Mark’s point was it was STILL too much. $600k for 20% would be a $3M valuation. Mark thought they were worth much more and shouldn’t settle, probably wanted them to offer like $600k for 10% or something!

[@Logicsupersedes]

​​@@KLBL-dp8mcit's not that he thought they were worth much more than that. Had that been the case, he'd have taken the offer himself. The point he was making was, if they actually believed in those sales. (1.5 this year, and 5 next) the investor would be getting about 650,000 at a 50% net (and they actually said it was over 50%.) they wouldn't be offering that much of their company. It makes literally no sense. They're basically just giving it away.

[@PharmacyAve]

Mark literally snaked them

[@MartinYakuza]

First time I've seen Kevin going out because the enterpreneurs were indecisive. Normally he is surprisingly patient and "civil", always letting the enterpreneurs think and to hear the offers of other sharks (unlike any other shark honestly).

[@AhmedAhmed-bc5lq]

They showed no respect for the 2 offers that’s why

[@rainierterucha8907]

​@@AhmedAhmed-bc5lq Mark actually saved them. They can scale so why give Kevin higher %

[@ArsenalBowler]

I think this is probably one of those cases where the editing made the negotiations seem a lot quicker than it actually was. Remember that these pitches are usually 1-2 hours long and edited down to 8-12 minutes when we view them

The pressure or volume is most certainly going to be an issue. Probably 4.7 rating because it actually got the two of them in there together. At that point water pressure was not considered.

Of course the sharks can’t relate to this product, they’re filthy rich!

[@evanscott9473]

The poor water pressure isn't because of this product. It's because a shower line is 1/2". That runs off of a 3/4" line. When the water is diverted from its original route to a second route, it loses pressure. Has nothing to do with the product itself.
