Yes, from what I saw earlier, their web page doesn't even show the models that we get from Camping World that has the shutoff on it. Not good. I almost bought the one on Amazon and then noticed that it doesn't have the same function, even though both are "Body Spa", so beware.

I have an Oxygenics without a shut off. For that, I use this right above my water handles:
But, I surely didn't spend $15 which is what Amazon is showing for it. (Looking at my Amazon order history, I spent $9.64 on it.)

This is the proper way the shower assy should be oriented. The shutoff valve was purchased at (ACE hardware). The holder on the wall is a stock F/R holder,we travel many 1000 of miles without it (Falling Out) of this holder. You can use the stock white flex hose or the SS one,no mods needed. Youroo!!

I looked at two different models at the dealership parts store. One did NOT have the shutoff, but I had to look closely to determine that I needed the other one. Also, the existing shower head holder would not work for me because it would allow the oxygenics head to touch the edge of the skylight. I could imagine the road vibrations causing the head to crack the skylight.
So installed the provided new holder right where the old one was, and the angle of it lets the shower head clear the skylight by a couple of inches. This holder is also adjustable via a ball socket.
And the pressure is great. On my first outing with it, I had 60 psi provided by the campground system and thought it was going to blow me out of the shower. I think it's going to be great for campgrounds with lower pressure.

You can tighten the ball by tightening the collar by it. Mine wanted to droop and would bow down and fall out going down the road until I tightened mine by hand. Love the pressure I get with not a lot of water pressure coming in the RV.

Other than that it works as described by others here and worth the investment.

The shut-off valve always pees a little to prevent scalding when you turn it back on. It does this by design. Since the cold supply always has slightly less restriction than the hot, it will dominate.

I call them "his" and "hers" shower head holders.

The real problem with the factory shower is that the hole on top of the faucets where the hose connects is very small diameter to save water.I was thinking of drilling the hole larger

Jack, you are right. I drilled mine a little bit larger and it made a huge difference.

That is exactly what I was thinking about doing. Did you use the same shower head model as the one in your RV? I wasn't sure it would do well with the increased household water pressure, might take the skin right off me
Thanks.

You won't regret installing one in your home. You will find that you will only need to barely turn the water on the get a refreshing shower stream and therefore saving money on your water bill.

Right. I've never had a camper that didn't do this.
