Shower Tower Panel

[Quidam]

Has anyone any experience with a shower panel like the one attached?

I'm considering one as a quick fix replacement for a 10 year old concealed bath fill/shower valve that is passing, without having to bust out the tiles. I believe it was bought from ebay, but there is no manufacturer named in the instruction booklet so I doubt spare parts are easily available.

I intend updating the bathroom in a year or two so if something like the panel above lasts that long it would be ideal, but don't want to fit it if they are known to fail in a few months.

Any thoughts, recommendations or ones to definitely avoid would be appreciated.

Thanks

Some are ok, some aren't ... you pay the money ... you take the chances, such is ebay.

I've fitted a couple over the years, one failed within 3 months, dodgy flexi pipe connection, which a jubilee clip sorted, the others are still going as far as I know.

Thanks Rob,

Good to know they aren't total junk so will keep looking - if I can avoid ebay I will!
