Good power. Sharp look
Easy to install and looks very modern. Good power and cheap to run.
Was fitted within 15 min and very Stright forward. What a beautiful shower with a generous pressure while still keeping the shower going with plenty of hot water. Easy to wipe down and looks great too.
It’s that good that I use them for rented properties as they last between 4-8 years with heavy use so good value long term
I bought this Triton shower because I had already installed one in another bathroom, great performance from a electric shower, you won’t be disappointed

More Than Hot Enough
Having had my 9.5kw model die on me after 2.5yrs heavy use I opted for the 8.5kw for two reasons, price being cheaper and the 9.5kw got way hotter than I ever needed.
The 8.5 gets more than hot enough when not at at max temp.
It fits, wires and plumbs in exactly the same as the 9.5kw so swapping out like for like is a simple diy job……just dont forget to buy a new compression joint olive.

Sleek looking and effective
After starting a bathroom reno, our old shower started leaking. This is a great looking replacement. Not as hot as I had expected, maybe our water system? Great for use as a summer shower as we have a separate shower in an ensuite..

Perfec
This is a really nice quality product. Works perfectly and the water flow rate and temperature is just fine.
There are also no wild temperature fluatuations when in use to make you scream in shock.
It looks very stylish and the panel buttons and dial are very easy to operate. Its a product i would recommend

Lovely shower unit at a reasonable price
Very pleased with my shower and it was a big saving on the original price
Stylish and easy to use
Bought this shower like-for-like to replace the previous one which lasted for 5 years. Looks good and does what it says.
Great showe
Replaced due to failure of TX80 model as it is the same installation footprint.
A very modern and neat design
To date it has worked extremely well and seems to give better flow/temperature regulatio

Triton Showers RECOL209GSBLK Collection II Contemporary Electric Shower, Black Gloss, 9.5 KW:
REVIEWED 30th Nov 2019: Shower so far been using for 2 months.
Pluses – Nice to look at work ok as a shower should:
Negatives – The Knob is hard to turn with dry or wet hand harder when hand is wet
when in the shower, therefore hard to adjust temperature. – When you want to use the
heavy flow the shower gets to hot sometimes even when on its lowest, so you have to
use the lower flow.. One fitted you just make use of what you’ve got best you can:

Perfect stylish showe
Our auntie and uncle had this shower and recommended it and we have used theirs, so we got the same it’s really good and powerful
Great brand, great shower.
This was a straight replacement for the shower we had before which was the same brand. The old shower was well used and good value for money, so far the new one hasn’t disappointed.

Very small and chic. One of ours wasn’t heating any more on the high setting than the low and water was very low. As it was out of warranty, Triton said bin and get another. I checked all the wiring and spotted a plug/lead had come off the PCB. I pushed it back on and hey presto, all good. It was doubtless pulled off accidentally during installation, so I guess a product fault, in that Triton could have routed the cables into safe places rather than hanging loose.
But no harm done, just an hour wasted of my time, which is free of course…(ahem!)

4.0 out of 5 stars Good shower needs a better shower head
Brought like for like to replace and was easy to refit. Shower head isn’t as powerful so I replaced with a different one.

Favourite showe
Love this shower, this is my second one as the first one I’ve had about 3 years and water stopped flowing – silent showe
For an electric shower, surprisingly good.
Very simple to use, nice simple power settings (cool is fantastic in the summer) and a standard 3 year warranty and the looks of it really stand out. Very pleased
Fantastic design love i
It’s slim black casing looks great and it’s easy to use Perfec
Smart showe
Nice looking shower, does as it says, happy with purchase
Excellent.
So far so good, love the shower head and happy with the temperature of the shower. I would buy this again.
A quality shower and very reasonable price!!
A quality shower that does exactly what it says on the tin! Excellent service, delivery on time on a Sunday!! Highly recommended product. Buy with confidence!!
Easy to use, looks stylish, my plumber misdiagnosed an installation issue. Triton Engineer requested, it’s a free service which includes labour and parts for a year. He arrived and completed the installation….. there was nothing wrong with the shower!
Excellent product and fabulous customer service.
Great showe
Bought this shower to replace my 10.5kw & there is very little difference.
Simple to use & works really well.
Being able to move the fittings to the side required made it really easy to fit.
Problems with the unit when first installed that were solved by a ‘reboot and restore’.
On first installation I had woeful pressure and the water temperature was either scalding hot or freezing cold. The phased shut-down wouldn’t work properly either. I had to shut the unit down by killing it via the isolator switch.
This was solved by going right back to the ‘set-up’ instructions in the manual. I took the cover off and started the set-up again from first ‘boot’. I think that the connector between the heater and the controller wasn’t properly seated, but I can’t say for sure. Worth persevering though.
After restoring the set-up and refitting the cover, the unit worked exactly as described in the manual. Better pressure, constant temperature and a phased shut-down. I’ve been using it for about one month now and I like it.
What I like:
It’s very good at holding the set temperature. My pressure can be variable (my interbellum semi, not the shower) and the unit holds the water temperature when this varies.
The ability to have a five point variance in the flow pattern. I like the ‘shot-blast’ setting. Others like something a little softer.
Phased shut-down. This helps keep the head mold-free.
Nice long lead on the head. Can cover the whole shower tray.
Pre-fitted with a soap dish on the rail. Nice touch.
Looks very cool against my white gloss metro tiles. 🙂
Nice unit size. Not too large.
Simple, one-button default operation.
My gripes:
“Hot” and “Cold” labels and arrows aren’t easy to read for those of us whose eyes aren’t what they were. (Small font and silver-on-silver). Could you make these black in the future?
Bottom Line:
If you persevere with the set-up (read the manual carefully and double check the controller / unit interface ‘plug’) it’s a darned good shower and good value for money. It gives you a warm shower and works well with lower pressure systems.
I’m going to dock a star for the set-up though. Get that sorted (i.e. make it foolproof) and this would be an outstanding unit.
