Default Ariston or Vokera boiler?

Sorry to start another "Which combi" thread but my choices appear to be
limited by the width of the casing. At 400mm it seems to boil (sorry) down
to the Vokera Compact 24, Ariston Microcombi 23, or Ariston Microgenus 23.
My current boiler is a similar spec to these, and is quite adequate, so I
won't be considering a higher output. Much as I'd like a condenser, the
budget won't quite run to it and I'm slightly put off by the fact that our
biggest local trade outlet (6 permanent counter staff) doesn't stock a
single condensing boiler.
Did I read somewhere that Ariston have a 2 year guarantee? Any other reasons
to go for one or the other?
Thanks in advance.


I have worked on both boilers and would say the Vokera seems to be the
better contructed. The both come from South of the Alps.
I have not installed either unit so can't really comment further.
