Next Bathrooms....Can anybody recommend?

Hi,

We need a new bathroom suite for our house that we are refurbing and have just seen in the new Next Catalogue the Iris suite for a basic £599 which includes everything but a shower and front panel, these would be about £200 on top (a mixer shower would make this cheaper though)

Can anybody recommend the Next bathrooms from a quality and durability perspective or should we steer well clear and pay approximately another £250 for a suite from a Plumbers merchants (PTS)?

Thanks

    The basic suite is £349 on the website. What are you adding to it? Is it the showerbath suite?

    I buy Next bathroom cabinets etc in the Sale and they're perfect for my needs at the price (half price!) I'm sure the bath suites will be of good condition - I've never had anything from Next go wrong on me and their returns have always been no quibble.

    Thanks for the reply Doozergirl.

    Yes it's the the shower bath suite with the burgess thermostatic mixer shower.

    Our concern was that it might be flimsy and would twist when you used the bath and without wishing to be crude the toilet bowl would catch your 'deposits'......have had problems in the past with a DIY chain bath suite:o not something that we really want!
