Bathrooms
can be a once in a lifetime purchase. Filling up shopping baskets with multiple
properties is a past time left only to the rich and famous, and we understand
that Joe public may purchase a bathroom suite a maximum of around 3 times in
our existence.
At Bathroom City we also understand that this
lifetime purchase can be an expensive one, and with the social pressures of
installing a suite which will impress friends and family, it can be a tricky
task to balance style and budget.
As a
little point in the right direction this blog will simply recommend a series of
our bathroom products which we believe offer great value for money, with a
great look, durability and functionality.
First
off the ultimate bathroom essential is a toilet, and on a low budget we feel it
best to stick to a ceramic white and nicely curved feature as they appear to
match the majority of bathroom products; it’s no good buying a cheaper product
of course if it doesn’t match your suite.

| JAX Jaz Close Coupled Toilet and Seat, £97 |
The JAX
Jaz Close Coupled Toilet and Seat comes complete with all the essentials in
style and function, using a chrome finished push button, white finish and
curvaceous modern style; the toilet is a bargain at just £97.
Moreover,
the Karizma Close Coupled Toilet and Seat from JAX is a slightly different
variation in style but still maintains the bold lines of the Jaz depending on
which unit suits your taste; the idea is simplicity and class in order to gain
a modern style.
Next up,
another Bathroom essential is a bath or shower, and again, JAX provide a
stunning minimal design in the form of their Hidrobox Intro 1600x700 Acrylic
Bath which is just £200. The single-ended bath combines bold lines and is
ergonomically manufactured for sublime relaxation with its moulded
interior and exterior.

| Countess Acrylic Bath with Feet [A208], £215 |
For a
slightly different look another great bath at an affordable price is the Countess
Acrylic Bath with Feet [A208] which provides a free standing solution for the
larger bathroom, giving you a luxury look and focal point in your suite for
£215: a look which is usually much pricier.
If space
is an issue when creating the bathroom you desire then maybe a shower is more
appropriate such as the 800 and 900 Quadrant shower enclosure which is a simple
solution for the smaller interior.
Both
showers offer a corner enclosure which is perfect for saving space in a larger
room or fitting snuggly into a smaller en-suite. With only a slight difference
in size, the showers provide just as much at a budget as most high end showers,
with toughened glass, clip out slide guides, single self-adjusting rollers,
full height magnetic closures and concealed fixings, not to mention the
glimmering chrome frame and reduced price of £139.
Finally,
what bathroom wouldn’t be complete without a stunning vanity unit. An
eye-catching vanity unit can give a bathroom suite character as well
functionality in the form of storage and a basin.

| 800 Quadrant Shower Enclosure, £139 |
For both
small and large units we’ve got to recommend JAX again, JAX never fail to
provide quality at a full range of prices, and their lower priced options are
great additions to any bathroom suite.
For
smaller spaces, the JAX Ecco 450 Vanity Unit with Basin (white) and JAX
Nebraska 400 Vanity Unit with Basin are ideal; the white giving you a
simplistic look designed to disappear in your bathroom with its clean look, and
the Nebraska
400 to be more of a focal point.
Also,
another excellent solution to the smaller space is a wall hung unit, as they
provide space underneath which can be used for storage or to simply open up
your bathroom.

| JAX Opera 650 Vanity Unit with Basin Sink, £185 |
The JAX
Trax 325 Walnut Wall Hung Vanity Unit with Basin and Phoenix FI001 Ilario
Single Door Cabinet provide just that, and again, promise style which can
either merge with your current furniture or stand out as an impressive piece,
which is both robust in its materials and durability but contemporary and
functional.
For
larger rooms, the JAX Ecco 850 Vanity Unit with Basin (white) is another unit finished in white to add
simple clean style and storage while the JAX Opera 650 Vanity Unit with Basin
Sink is a unit which captures the essence of natural wood furniture with a
walnut finish, chrome plated handles and double doors which provide generous
storage.
Of
course this brief guide to bargain hunting covers the bare essentials required
to create a brand new design or add style to an older suite. Our website and
showroom has a whole host of products ranging from budget options, right
through to luxury items, all of which one trend remains the same, top quality
at reasonable prices.
