Good product from known brand, comes with most items to install, well finished, more pwerfull than old one
For the price good value not expensive but does the job.
Flow rate and shower pressure not as good as my old Bristan, should have gone with the larger, more expensive uni

Have had two zing shower bars before and after a couple of years they have failed. First was fitted by the builder and lasted 5 years before failing and the second I got lasted three years before failure. This time, the bar sent has the temp control on the cold side, which I hope will mean less wear on the cartridge. The design has been improved, more stylish and the control to turn the water on and off has been made to be a lighter touch, which is good for those with less strength. Happy with this, 58 pounds, can;t really go wrong. Took me 5 mins to fit. Water off, old one off, new on one, water on and done!

I kept the existing back fittings, as it was only my valve that needed changing. I didn’t need to adjust the temperature, but the instructions are clear if I need to.
The finish is perfect and I have zero leaks or issues.
If you are wondering whether or not to buy this shower, just do it and I know you will not be disappointed
Spoilt for choice, I knew I wanted a British brand, designed and made in the UK for added piece of mind. Having never fitted a shower valve before, I needed the simple option. This looked perfect. I simply removed the two bolts, checked the seals and replaced with the new one. Job took about 5-10 minutes max.

Bought this to replace thermostat bar on existing one , just as cheap to buy whole thing than just cartridges. Although is same model they have improved the design and look. Fitting is easy and clear instructions . You would prob want to buy a new shower head, it’s a bit small one provided .

Ok for the price, the hot & cold markings and on off markings are barely visible – plumber found it easy enough to install

Excellent shower valve for the price, cool touch is a great feature. would certainly recommend.
i have had fitted several of these fitted. bristan is a good value -supported- product. i have found triton mixers go wrong quite often and the generic ones you cant get spares for. if you have a fault you just isolate the supply and bolt the old one off and bolt another on. the loose handle below can just be the screw to tighten and the variable temp can be the cartridge but it can also be the impeller or other boiler water delivery fault or even low water pressure. we keep a spare unit to change out as required. its easy to dismantle and put in descaler and replacement o rings are available. it comes with good instructions. all in all bristan are a good make , even though most taps are made in china be they bristan, pegler or whoever they are made to british or european standard and are ok. again its the generic makes that often look cheap but thats for a reason.
I was really worried about installing this shower, I had nothing to worry about very easy to install. Had all the pieces in the box lovely design. Would recommend to anyone.

Had to replace our thermostatic bar as the tap was worn and wasn’t gripping. It was 10years+ old so a good brand just bought another to replace it.
Great flow of water and thermostat allows you to select the perfect temperature. Easy installation and water back on within 20mins and I’m not really a DIYer but I refused to pay a tradesman ridiculous money to ft it!

Works great but after a few months the on and off switch came loose. So it’s now wobbly and can see the bolts.
Maybe ours was just faulty somehow.
But apart from that it’s been great.

Excellent piece of kit it feels like you’ve had a shower excelle
Very simple to replace the old one with this quality product.
Also with the Bristan guarantee.
a replacement for a faulty shower in our new property.
looks the part and very easy too operate with the toggles when you have soapy slippy hands
The kit does come with some adjusters centres so double check you old shower before buying.
This has a very sleek design, unlike my previous shower. The body also stays cold when on.
Only issue I found is the temperature adjustment is on the opposite side to my old Bristan, meaning I’ve accidentally ended up with cold water when trying to turn the shower off.
Anyway, great value for money, cheaper than buying replacement parts!

Great and quick delivery . Needed to replace my existing shower as temperature setting had jammed .
Easy to install although this cheaper version the adapters included are for installations that deviate from the usual 150mm centres. Luckily I already did the first fix with a Mariflow PL8 kit that includes straight adapters/fixing for 150mm centres lining up the thermostat neatly with the holes. It’s not obvious from the description but the more expensive fast fit version includes these.

Easy to install as a replacement shower. Feels good to the touch. Controls easy to use.
Yet to install but product name is a quality manufacturer.
Chose this slightly smaller model as my shower cubicle is only 760×760. It fitted easily and looks modern.
Cheap shower mixer bar that does the trick. It looks great for the price and with it being a well known brand it should be reliable.
While it is tidy, the flow is slightly less than my previous Bristian shower bar, but still adequate.

Did the replacement job perfectly, fitted our standard fittings so quick and easy to fit.
Quality feels good.
This unit is excellent value for money and works perfectly. The reason I only gave 4 stars is that it really needs a fitting kit that I purchased from Amazon for 6.99

Easy to fit, simply connect to the existing pipework using the fittings supplied. Water pressure is good. This shower is installed above, and about 30m horizontal from the water tank (unvented), really happy with the fit and finish, nice “Bristan” brand engraved. Highly recommended.

Looks very stylish in my new bathroom. My only issue is that the shower head is a bit small, but its a minor issue. Works really well.
Excellent choice for replacing an existing Bristan bar shower.
Swapped in with no issues at all.

We had a Bristan shower for over 15 years without any problems, then put in a Triton one when we updated the bathroom. Big mistake, it lasted 12 months and when i called for an engineer under the ‘guarantee’ they quoted a 3 weeks wait. So, i took it out and replaced it with this Bristan, easy to install without any fuss. It does the job without complaint, should have brought a Bristan in the first place !!
