Are Tool Station Radiators Good ?

Hi,
I need to replace 4 radiators as getting a new combi boiler fitted and been told they could pop under the new pressure.

I have come across some possible rads on Tool station and they seem a good price but I can't see a make or maufactures gaurantee details. I am looking to get Double Radiator Double Convector 500x600mm. Here is a link to one of the options.

I also looked on screwfix who sell Kudox and it says gives 15 Year Manufacturer's Guarantee. These any good ?

Has anyone had experience of these are can recommend other options for me to consider ?


Also how do you workout the BTU for a living room that goes the full width of the house and has a Rad at the other end and a gas fire near the middle ?

Just fitted the rad you described in a 8x7 box room and it is more than adequate for the space. The rad seems to be of good quality and was great value for money. You will need to buy valves/trv seperately (as with all rads).
Good luck.

Cheers good to know. When you got the radiator did the documantation tell you what make they are and what the Manufacturers Guarantee is ?

To be honest it did say what make it was on the packaging, but I can't remember if it came with any blurb or not. Being a plumber as one of my trades it wasn't that important. If a rad works when it's put in and doesn't leak then the warranty will run out many years befor the rad is knackered.
I buy lots of kit from Tool Station and have always found it to be good quality. The moment that changes, they will lose my business.
Hope this helps.

Cool thanks for the feedback. I have found out they are made by 4L's if anyone else is interested.
