Which shower?

[Sunshine12]

Trying to decide between:

Mira Platinum (https://www.plumbworld.co.uk/mira-p...nly-high-pressure-combi-boiler-101376-1256562)

Or Grohe Smart Control (https://cdn.cloud.grohe.com/Literat...06.458409942.1616246959-1949666470.1616246959)

Pressurised system, 300L tank. 2.5-3 bar pressure. Want as powerful shower as possible. Average shower lasts 4-5 mins. Not wanting flow restrictors! Ideally 300-400mm large head.

Which is the best option for this situation? Thanks

Never used the Grohe but I had a Mira Platinum dual outlet in my last house and it was excellent - with both heads turned on it overwhelmed the capacity of the high-flow waste outlet

Thanks muggles - good to know it can achieve the Flow rate. Would you have it again? Any other pros & cons to it?

Main con is that it's expensive! Personally not a fan of wireless control, I'd rather have it wired for reliability, but that's a minor issue really. It lost connection a couple of times in the 5 years I was in that house, necessitating going into the loft to reset it, but 2 occurrences in 5 years I suppose isn't too bad

Thanks.

does anyone know if either of these would be suitable with a 400mm shower head?
Pressurised system with 2.5 bar. Thanks

If the head is correctly selected it'll be fine. Look at the manufacturer's tech specs to match it correctly to the shower - not all heads are created equally
