Digital Shower

Hi,

Was looking to get the Mira Platinum Dual Wireless Digital Shower, ceiling fed high pressure version. Purely becasue it saves me having to build a false wall and my boiler is in the loft anyway.

Has anyone got one or installed one of these? If so, is it reliable and worth the money?

https://www.mirashowers.co.uk/onlinecatalog/detail.htm?productNumber=Mira%20Platinum%20Dual%20Ceiling%20Fed%20-%20High%20Pressure&section=New%20products&resultPageKey=16111944-0&category=

Was thinking of buying from plumb nation as they appear to be cheapest. Any opinion on them too?

Thanks,
Kuly

    Can't speak for the shower but i ordered a couple of things with plumnation last tuesday. They emailed me at 4.50 on thursday to tell me that 1 item was gonna be delivered on the friday and their office closed at 5. I phoned first thing friday and they sorted it so both items are delivered tomorrow. So far so good from them but we'll see how the delivery is tomorrow.

    We fit a few of these and are good value for money, work well too

    Doble bathrooms are the cheapest!! As these are seen as a showroom item you cant buy from trade plumbing outlets

    Fitted several - not had a problem to date - plus Mira have a very good engineer service (so I'm told!) if the worst happens in the first 5 years!

    One was even installed as a shower and automatic bath filler... well impressed.

    Don't agree with Andy's comment bout not being able to buy from trade outlets tho. That's where I source all mine from.

    Cheers folks.

    Will get it then.

    Tried Doble along with numerous other items, were cheaper by a tenner than Plumb nation but Doble charge for delivery :-(

    How much discount do tades people get off of RRP? Might become a trader if its worth while.

    35% is trade discount on mira, PTS, Plumb centre all wanted over 550 for a pumped ceiling fed platinum. The mira vies can be had for around £400 as these are a trade/ retail item and not exclusive to showrooms

    35%, not bad. Do they ask too many questions or can I call pretending to be a fitter/trader?

    Cheapest I have been quoted is 494 + delivery.
