I'd appreciate opinions on this shower

I am getting prices for having my bathroom done at the moment and was going for a wet room but have decided on a low profile tray and walk in shower

I quite like the look of this and as it comes with the shower fitted seems quite a good value way of doing it, but before any layout I'd like some other opinions.
There is nothing either good or bad but thinking makes it so.

    It will certainly be a cheaper alternative to a wet room.

    However, don't think that tray will simply plonk on the floor, you will need a decent structure under it to avoid future problems.

    You also need to check that the waste position is viable and doesn't clash with joists (if relevant) and can be fitted with the correct falls.

    Hi

    I read the spec.

    MANUAL hot and cold control.
    Will your hot water system cope with the demand ?

    You get what you pay for.;)

    It's a combi hot water system, would that work?

    Hi

    I don't know.

    Unless you can find out the h/w requirement of the shower nobody will be able to tell you.
    The only question you can answer is what is your combi flow rate.
