in It's gone, but was it any good?
My local Aldi (Alloa) has 9.5kw electric showers reduced to £20. The original price was £64.99. It has a two year warranty. I am not very sure about the specification as I am not technical, but will check the box if anyone has questions. I picked up one as a spare in case my own breaks down as it seemed a great price.

    Please get a qualified electrician to fit. I "think" more than 8.5kw showers need 10mm cable. Many, many homes have 6mm. Good bargain but stay safe.

    Thank you spike :). I had the current shower fitted by a qualified electrician and would always do so. My cabling is fairly modern as all the electrics were re-done for a total bathroom re -fit in 2009.

    Is it a Galaxy Mystique or something like that ?

    They only went on sale last month, on Thursday October 10th.

    My local still has a few left (6?) but they're only reduced to £54.99
