Aqualisa QZE10501 Quartz Electric shower with adjustable head, Chrome, 10.5kW [Energy Class A]

Bought to replace the same model (so I knew the fittings and water pipe would line up) which had gone to the shower equivalent of rainbow bridge. Easy to fit, powerful enough for our household yet quiet when running, and controllable temperature. Decent shower.

I’ve bought this to replace an identical unit installed over 12 years ago. It’s leaking and rather than mess around replacing worn parts, I’ve decided to replace with another unit which is exactly the same.I need a plumber to install because the pipe and electrical works required are, in my view, best undertaken by a professional. I bought the same unit to minimise the work required; should be remove the old one, refit the new one in the same place. As a shower unit, I’m pleased with performance. It provides instant hot warm or cold shower water at a decent pressure. It’s easy to clean, the graphite Co,our gives a contemporary look and it’s cost effective. I’ve used the old shower daily, at least onc3 for over 12 years without any problems so I’m confident this replacement will offer value for money.

This is now my 4th one of these in 6 years. They are a super shower, good flow, easy to use.To be fair, it’s used at least 3 times every day, sometimes as much as 5 times a day. However I would still expect them to last longer than the 18months we get

I bought this shower as an exact replacement for a previous shower because it looks great and performs brilliantly. There have been a few reviews concerning the reliability of this item, and I must say that we had some problems shortly before our old one stopped working completely. Having done a little research, there are two points that I have found that may solve reliability issues. First: if, after use, the shower head is left in a low position (such as in the shower basin or bath) for long enough for the water to drain from the hose, there is a risk that water will also drain from the shower's internal heating unit. Therefore, before returning the shower head to its normal position above the shower unit, turn the temperature control to the fully cold position then turn the shower on for a few seconds to refill the hose and the heating element. This prevents a situation during subsequent use akin to turning on a kettle that has no water inside. Second: I noticed during installation that there is a warning label on the internal unit stating that the shower would not work properly unless the supplied oulet hose and shower head were employed. This suggests that if you replace these items after a few years then you ought to buy these from Aqualisa and not use some alternatives from other retailers.

Needed a new shower as existing one stopped working, I new that it would be easier to buy the same again as everything would fit which it did. This was quiet expensive and if I had one complaint it would be that this was the fourth shower I've bought from this manufacturer all the same and each of the previous ones have failed with the same sympton which is that when you switch it , it comes on momentarily then switches off , which leads me to believe there must be a weakness in the circuitry somewhere.

Bought this to replace the same model that had failed that was in the house when we moved in.Because it was a like for like replacement everything was straight forward with plumbing and wiring.Problem arose when I came to start the shower, could hear a buzzing but no water was coming out, I had charged the shower so I knew water was in it and going to it.Removed the cover and tried it again and it worked; after some checks it turned out that the front cover was fouling the solenoid that drives the water valve open and closed. I had to remove some excess plastic that appeared to be from a leak in the moulding tool that made the cover so ither people will be ha ing the same problem. Once this was removed the shower worked just like the one it replaced.I guess I could have sent it back but with these sorts of jobs once you've spent the time installing it you don't then want to take it all out again.If and when I need to replace this one I won't be doing a like for like swap.

Bought this as a replacement for the same model that has served us well for many years, but that finally went to shower heaven a couple of weeks ago. As it was an exact replacement it was really easy to fit, old one off, new one connected. Supplied riser bar and shower head holder not quite as good quality as the old ones but still reasonable quality.
