Hi all

Can anyone recommend quality bathroom fittings from experience.
I am nearing the end of an endless bathroom re-fit and we are fast
approaching towel rail and soap dish time!

I don't want SWMBO to look in the nearest shed catalogue, find a trinket
that looks real good for about a week and then falls apart, to be left with
holes in tiles where these nasties have been!

One source has suggested Bristan, but I'd like to throw this open to the
floor!

TIA

We've got an Acova towel rail and it's been excellent so far.

I went for this one because it had the highest heat output I could find
(I calculated the heat loss for the bathroom, derated for a future
condensing boiler and derated again for having towels hung on it).

When I ordered it the guy at the bathroom shop said that out of all the
towel rail manufacturers they deal with, Acova had the fewest problems.

I'll second Bristan - spent £300 plus when I refitted my
bathroom/shower room/cloakroom recently. Very happy with it.

We've been very pleased with the "Miller from Sweden" ranges available at
Allders, and probably other places. We went for them because my wife had the
slightly unusual requirement of including a "liquid soap dispenser" among
the other items (toothbrush holder, soap dish, glass shelf, "beaker" holder)
and after an extensive search this was the most complete range I could find.

We've used them in both our recent bathroom rebuilds. They look pretty good
IMO. Unfortunately I never found an online supplier, and different Allders
branches seem to keep different "ranges" from the full range, but have a
folder with pictures of all the ranges, I found.

Regards,
Simon.

Thanks fellas!
Already going down the rad route though - not a big fan of the towel rail
rads having one already in en suite!
