Fitted this last week. and it works wonderfully well.Very speedy delivery before expected time.
Works well with my Combi boiler. I’m a DIYer. Make sure you follow the instructions they issue, proceed slowly !! and all will go well.
Mostly good, some parts bit light, doesn’t feel quite as solid as replacement. Shame no soap tray with it.
Great mixer tap which works really well and perfect for my needs. Fitted myself in 20 minutes.
Fitted shower myself after watching video on Youtube where the plumber recommended it.No leaks and very happy so far.You get what you pay for and for 83.00 if it lasts two years we will be happy,especially as we live in hard water area that ruins everything.Hopefully will last longer.
Really good value and much better than most offered in shops. Easy to clean and easy to fi
This unit was ordered as a replacement for a different Bristan unit which was leaking. It was fitted in less than 20 minutes and fitted exactly without problem. It has been functioning correctly since. The only possible problem with this unit is that a very small adjustment of the temperature control above the 38 degree setting can very quickly increase the temperature of the shower. Care should be taken with any such adjustment before showering small children.
Fitted within 5mins. Didn’t need to use back wall plates as the casings went straight over my old triton ones. Exisiting olives left on. The bar itself is really cold to touch during use. No heat at all on it. Dials work fine, very sensitive to increase temperature so turn slowly to increase temperature.
Fitting was very easy. It would have been easier if I’d read the instructions and noticed the two new washers in the pack. Once I’d removed the unit and fitted the washers there was no leak at all.
The valve works well but I’ve had to get used to the controls being reversed to my previous unit. Once it’s set the temperature is great for time of the whole shower. I live alone so there’s no need to adjust that again. I’ve had to adjust it to just over the safety stop for my level of comfort. Others might be more comfortable with a lower level.
One thing that I’ve had to get used to is the cool touch feature of the valve. For those who keep the shower on all the time during the shower it won’t be a problem. I, however, turn the shower off to lather my torso after washing my hair and face. When I turn it on again, I have to be aware that the first water out of the shower head is a little colder than I would like, so I jump out of the way!
We installed this shower mixer after installation of an unvented hot water cylinder.
No problems with installation and usage. Water output easy adjusted and stay on rigth temperature.
We are very pleased.
Excellent unit took under an hour to remove the old one and put the new one on, fittings where the same, the pressure is slightly less than the old one, that’s so less water is used, I am pleased with the unit. Michael.
After attempting to fix the valve in my old leaking Bristan shower bar (and somehow getting it very wrong and having a shower that then wouldn’t turn off) I thought I may be better off with a whole bar replacement.
It was so easy and the job was done in under 5 minutes. I only needed to replacement washers it comes with the screw on the new bar. Done! Very happy.
Arrived on time. Bought as a replacement for old fitting and very easy to install – only took a few minutes
Was bought to replace my original as the temperature control no longer worked. It was cheaper than buying spares. Easy fit & looks good.
easy to fit with options and has good temperature control from hot to cold. I have had cheaper units which did not last, pay the extra and get a good one, this one.
After watching a youtube video about installing a mixer bar, I was pleased to find this bar came in a kit without the additional bar for the shower head so it was quite a bit cheaper than I expected.
It was easy to install with 0 plumbing experience and has worked perfectly since then.
Very nice product and I was using it to replace an ancient Grohe thermostatic shower bar. The Grohe has ‘standard’ hex nuts to attach to the outlets – this has two small flats instead – make sure you have a spanner that fits – n.b. adjustable won’t do unless hasnarrow jaws!
Other than that – it is a lovely unit. Works well and gives a nice controlled flow.
Expensive but a quality product you get what you pay fo
Only fitted the bar as the pole was too long and I would have to drill new holes. The riser didn’t fit the old pole so had to keep the original.
Brilliant I got this to replace my broken one. And it was all up and running within 5 minutes..
Awesome shower easy to fit very good looking. Excellent facilities for changing and cleaning thermostat, including instructions.
The previous one – which was much more expensive – only lasted 3 years, and had become unreliable and drippy. This one seems to work very well indeed, and didn’t take long to install once I’d worked out how to turn off the water in the street.
My last Bristan bar mixture which was an older Bristan Frenzy model and lasted me about 5 years the only reason I replaced it was due to the temperature control and on/off control on both sides becoming a little tight to rotate.
I know if I applied a little grease grease it would have solved the issue as over time they tighten up due to water falling and getting inside the rotating controllers on the side. Even on then the older Bristan model never leaked and the water temperature was perfect.
The new Bristan model I can see they have improved the controls on both side ls they are smooth to rotate. When I say you can rotate them with 2 fingers even if you have soup on water on your fingers. And the speed of water coming out is allot stronger then the older model even though the older model water flow was fine this is even better.
Highly recommend this product.
Very easy to install and I’m not a plumber, only thing to remember is to join the hot and cold to the right side otherwise problem will occur which I guess by the poor reviews is the case that it wasn’t plumbed correctly
Replacing existing identical shower head that had failed easy to replace- half hours job all fine and working.
Replaced another mixer where the cartridges had seized up. Very easy to install and set up and works really well
Good quality, good price. Easy to fit, well made product. Fitted to replace an earlier, slightly different model. Slight difference in configuration from previous unit as the on/off lever is on the left hand side as opposed to the right hand side, so I get my arm soaked until muscle memory changes its location!
Very pleased. Read the good reviews so with the great price offered I opted for this over other options. Easy to fit, works well and seems to be very sturdy
No fitment issues, was just a straight swap and it works brilliantly
The listing for this is a bit deceptive as the photos show two different products, so we didn’t actually get the one we were expecting. We couldn’t be bothered to return it though so installed it anyway as the old one we were replacing had a major leak. It was extremely quick and easy to install, even for complete novices like us. It works perfectly so far, hopefully it will last a while.
Nice unit, easy to fit, easy to operate
Really pleased
Replaced a power shower and non-standard pipework that required some plumbing and retiling. Once that was done the shower bar was simple to fit. Instructions are clear. We have high water pressure so there was some adjustment required to ensure the shower temperature was balanced, but very straight forward to achieve. Shower temperature is very consistent and stable. Great looking product.
