Unprompted review
Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Replaced the engine, to resolve a leaky shower.

My shower unit was leaking from the main body. I decided to replace just the 'engine', so that I could keep the plubing, electrics and cover, in place.
It was easy to find parts on their website. The delivery was good and in time. I was quite surprised that a relatively old unit was still available.
The cost was very high. I could have purchased a different model for less.

Perfect experience

Part ordered with no problem. Delivered pretty quickly, in perfect packaging, no damage at all.
It was easy to fit and now the shower is back to normal.
Very impressed.
