In our Master bath we have your standard tub with the drop in shower beside it. Typical glass opening door.

I was thinking of replacing the generic shower head with a rain shower head. Any suggestions or anything I should know before I go down this road?

I have a delta and it's great. The water restrictor comes out easy on Delta's and I yanked that out before I installed it, have had it almost 3 years and love it......mines the one on the adjustable pipe so you can raise it higher etc.

I'm not sure. The head that's in there now is just a "builder grade" head. Probably just some $10-$20 random shower head.

ANYTHING will be a upgrade.

I have a Delta one. It is awesome. We can run it with the standard shower head (have 2 in the shower) and it still has decent pressure.

Kohler shower heads are the best. As the saying goes if it is made by Kohler, it is durable and good quality

Just replaced ours recently.
Got a Delta one that was also handheld but took it back > it was made cheap with metal looking plastic. Very disappointed in the Delta and it was not cheap ether.

Got an Oxygenics Rain Head one with multiple adjustments > LOVE IT.

When we had our house built 2 years ago, we had the contractor put in a rain head in the master bath (by that I mean the spigot is in the ceiling). Initially, he put in a standard shower head, which kind of defeats the purpose. I added a Delta, square, rain head and that completes the picture. It’s nice

Mrs.BurtonRW saw one at a home show a couple of years ago for $99. I found the same one online for half of that. She LOVES it. Plenty of water pressure, no clogging, no problems.

Here it is.
