You'll find it near impossible to get a conclusive answer to your question.

I too am looking into buying boilers and pondering over whether it is really worth the extra money for brand names. Biasi, as I'm sure you've found, is probably one of the cheapest on the market.

I've had different plumbers saying "you get what you pay for" (i.e. dont expect much from them!) so better of buying Vaillant or Bosch to another who said he installed scores of biasi's over the years (including 6 at a small hotel, working 24/7 with no probs).

In short, try your luck with the cheaper model if its what you can afford and make sure its installed by a reputable corgi plumber, maintained regularily and in my opinion, only bad luck will make it a poor investment.

Exactly, you pay for what you get....

Choose either a Ideal Icos, Vailant Ecomax Pro or Worc CDI.......

Good Luck...

Hi - new to this...but I had a Biasi installed about 5 years ago and not had ANY trouble whatsoever. Hope I've not jinxed myself!!

But I do agree in most cases you get what you pay for, but hey no boiler is cheap!
