Steam shower help please.

Hi guys,

Im desperately after a steam shower, can anyone recommend one please?

We have a really small bathroom,if I have a 800x800 it will be too small, I have seen this one

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/GT8727-Insignia-Steam-Showers-Cabin-Enclosure-Cubicle-New-2012-Design-NOT-A-COPY-/280798239203

but from the corner to the centre point it is measuring 1130mm. Which will make it a struggle to walk past the shower to the sink. Im really stuck. Can someone please help?

Thanks

    It's not like a normal quadrant shower as the curve is built out, not cut away to fit a small space, hence it's so wide. Honestly though, with all those gubbins, it needs to be big. Even a 900 will feel small inside.

    Seriously though, are you sure? They're really cheap looking things. Nothing that is genuinely built to last that did all of those things would be that cheap. There's so many elements to water seal that just aren't meant to be near water - wood and electrics. there need to be screw joints to connect the seat to the stool - with water falling staight onto them they will rust at the cuts and fail. There's a reason that these things aren't produced by the big reputable bathroom brands.

    Even if they last, they would just be a nightmare to keep clean with all the nooks and crannies, they look like legionella waiting to happen. I have enough trouble just trying to get behind the sliding door on our quadrant.

    I'd rethink.
