Which bathroom brands to go for

tortoiseshellcat

Hi we are getting our bathroom refitted and now getting totally stressed by the amount of choice on offer. We thought we had everything chosen and had gone for an R2 sink and cupboard underneath and an R2 toilet. Now I've read bad reviews on those products so am having a rethink.
Has anyone used Pura before? If so is there a difference in quality between Pura, Imex, Deuco or Floval?
We can't afford V and B but don't want to get really cheap stuff that won't last so kind of thinking mid to above mid range.
Also we've chosen an Aqualisa visage shower, has anyone had one of these before?
Any suggestions would be very much appreciated
Thanks

I've gone for Ideal Standard, mid-range. I've had this brand before, and they lasted the best part of 30 years in my last house while still looking good. Cheaper brands have cheaper glazes which become difficult to keep clean after a few years.

Easter weekend is traditionally a good time to get bargains on items for the home, so shop around for which ever brand you choose.

Thank you that's really helpful, especially the part about the cheap glaze, that makes sense.
