Annesv, I do NOT have ORB fixtures in the shower. But I do have them in the bathroom sink, and elsewhere in the bath.
The shower fixtures I wanted did not have ORB as an option.

Well, the lavatory faucet, being ORB, shows every bit of soap and toothpaste very white and I suppose that makes it easier to know when to clean it. But it can look pretty ragged. This bath, with only a shower not a tub, is the facility that company uses when someone drops by. So I keep a close eye on its condition. It comes off easily, but it is much more visible on the dark finish than it is on chrome or nickel.

I can imagine that a regularly used shower with ORB fixtures would require similar attention.

I, have the oil rub bronze,fixture,s, in a shower. They hold up very well .And our water, is very hard. sharaz

We have ORB in our master bath (shower, tub, two sinks) and it holds up really well. It's been just over 5 years that we've been in our home and I haven't noticed any problems of hard water stains.

Also, we have two ORB faucets in the kitchen...no problems there either.

HTH! :)
