Title: Bathstore.
Post by: shyboy on 05 January 2011, 11:39:31

I'm looking at upgrading our bathroom and wonder if anyone has any experience of dealing with 'Bathstore', or comments about how well or otherwise they do their business.
Their products seem quite good on initial inspection, although like everywhere else they charge stupid prices for additional accessories etc.

There good for finding ideas but, I always end up buying the items on line for less.

Just finsihed fitting out the ensuite and saved a packet as a result.

Did the same with the bathroom to.

I use this outfit a bit

Ended up with a Matki shower surround and tray though which I got from elsewhere and saved 500 quid over what the cost was localy

Thanks, Mark.
I've already found a substantial price saving from the site you mention, on a whirlpool shower bath I've got my eye on, so I'll have to explore fully before making final decisions on the full refurb.
Thanks again. Most helpful.
Cheers,
Bill.

Yeh, I bought a Whirlpool bath from them a few years ago, its well made and works well plus its not overly noisey.

found them to be not only expensive but instead of finding near alternatives, i was able to source locally IDENTICAL stock much cheaper

Thanks Mark and Danny.
I agree Danny. Finding identical gear online much cheaper.

As said, they are way ott on price, expect to almost half their initial quote by shopping around and tweaking your shopping list.

In fact on some cases for half the price we managed to find top spec stuff, like a caronite bath.
