hansgrohe Ecostat 1001 CL - bath thermostat exposed, bath tap with safety stop at 40 °C, thermostat for bath tubs, mixer tap for 2 functions, chrome, 13201000

Great make, great products. Big name costs more, but generally you can rely on getting a quality product. This is such an item. Very pleased and a fair price as well :-)

Looks great and easy to install. Quality product

Our bar shower had been playing up for some time, the temperature was either luke warm or cold and it dripped continuously, so were were on the lookout for a replacement.After contacting a couple of plumbers and obtaining quotes in excess of £300 to replace ours we thought about looking at alternatives. After checking out the more known brands we stumbled upon this one due to its customer rating.It arrived very quickly and although the instructions were rather IKEA like, we watched a YouTube video and cracked on.It was installed within 5 minutes. I used a cooking thermometer to check the temperature and we were pleased that no adjustments were required.It has an eco function which limits water supply but I find this adequate for all your showering needs.My only niggle was that Amazon reduced the price by £30 the day after we had it delivered.Overall: super easy to install, looks clean and does what you want it to do!

Love this tap! Replaced a cheaper mixer tap that had stopped working. No more cold water shocks over the head when switching from bath to shower, no dripping in between settings, easy temperature control with gradual & comfortable change from cold to hot. Sleek, stylish, simple design. Mine is deck mounted and fits well with the pillar unions I had. I also replaced my shower hose - chain-like, stretchy and very difficult to clean - with the hansgrohe shower hose, which I can also highly recommend! Extremely pleased.

A really high end fitting heavy duty

The temperature control is very sensitive, so you can get the exact temperature you want. The temperature can go from stone cold to very hot. I have found that this has allowed me to reduce the temperature at the hot water tank, which I couldn't do with my previous shower mixer.The flow control has a low pressure setting that allows you to use less water. This can be overridden very easily (by pressing a button as you increase the flow) when you want more energy from your shower.Worth every penny.

Bought this to replace a 10 year old Aqualisa Midas bar mixer that had become seized up ( I never knew that periodically removing and cleaning the thermostatic valves was a thing, but apparently it is). Already had the pipe work in place on the wall so it was as easy turning the water off, unbolting the old unit and then bolting this one on in place.Well, almost as easy. Problem I encountered was that the pipes coming out of the wall were plastic, and the screen filter/washers that come with this shower valve are clearly meant for metal to metal, as they barely compress at all. The box does also come with a pair of those offset pipe fittings, which I didn’t use because I had the pipe work there already. It’s probable that the included washers would work fine with those, but they were no good on my plastic pipe work.Thus the first time I turned the water on, I had leaks from both connector nuts. So, I robbed the screen filter/washer things from my old unit - which were rubber - and used those instead. Tightened up, and … no leaks, so far so good.So if you’re looking to get this, suggest you also pick up a couple of 1/2 inch rubber screen filter washer thingies too, just in case.Also if of any help, mine is connected to a Worcester Greenstar 28i junior combi boiler - seems to work just as well as my Aqualisa shower did.

Needed to replace our aging bath/shower mixer tap as the temperature control had become very stiff and difficult to move. We have some Hansgrohe bathroom accessories that we're very pleased with, and have used Hansgrohe taps when staying in hotels and thought them to be good, so decided to try one for ourselves.Fitting was straightforward enough, the tap looks good and all works well, EXCEPT that it didn't shut off properly. The drip rate was very, very slow but this was a brand new tap from a quality manufacturer, so shouldn't drip at all. I contacted Hansgrohe three times using the email address provided on their website and failed to get any response whatsoever. I ended up having to phone them and, to give credit where it's due, they sent out a new off/on valve straight away with no quibbles. This was easy to fit and fixed the problem. No more drips.We are very happy with the tap but less so with Hansgrohe customer services. Bonnie was great on the phone but why give out an email address if you have no intention of responding to it? Very poor from that aspect.
