Shower cabins - B&Q

roytom

I want to install a shower cabin - but they can be pricey and I want to see what I'm getting before I buy.

Wickes do them, at a price ... Then I found them in the B&Q bathroom catalogue - page # 158 "Cooke & Lewis Shower Cabins". So far, so good.

But there is no way of seeing these B&Q Shower cabins as they are not on display in any of their stores. The other snags are that the customer service setup could not find these on their system and there is no guarantee period mentioned in the catalogue.... and its not showing up on their web site!

Has anyone bought one of these? Any comments?

Is this the sealed cabin with drench head, body jets, radio etc.....
Plenty of other places have them apart from B&Q. They are all chinese made and a similar spec as far as I can see.The B&Q near to me had one on display before it closed at the end of last month. Most Wickes stores will have one on display and it is looks to be very similar.
They are only really worth having with a high pressure hot water system or a huge tank on a low pressure one. If you have a low pressure sytem and a small tank you will very quickly run out of hot water in one of these if you pump it, which you would have to to make them worthwile.

Thnaks, but this B&Q one is very simple - no extra jets - just a plain bar mixer and hose to shower head that is detachable.

Has anyone seem the one in the B&Q catalogue ?
