AquaLusso - Opus 02 - 900 x 900mm Shower Cabin - Polar White

Not the easiest thing to put together.

I have seen so many negative comments and really can't believe them. I built mine with a little help from the wife in about 5 hours. It's seriously heavy. Quality is fantastic and looks great. The instructions are not the best, but adequate with a little DIY skill. Would definitely buy again.

I never write reviews, but after seeing some bad feedback on this shower I thought I should. Built this shower in about 5 hours, you do need 2 people to lift the 3 back panels on to the tray. They are 6mm glass and really heavy. Looks fantastic and even the wife loves it.

So seen this shower read about it and read the review decided to buy this shower which does look amazing, but WOW this not an easy build, the whole cubicle is made of glass (the rear panels frosted white) making it very heavy ( I'll come back to the weight). The clicking system has made joining panels so difficult, it sounds really easy, slot together, click open out and viola attached panels. If that easy firstly make sure from top to bottom there in the slots may look like they are but when you try and open and click they wont, so you have them together and open and if you waiting for a click there isn't one its pretty silent leaving you wondering if you have done it correctly, once back and sides are all fitted you then have to lift the whole thing to slide into bottom curved rail, ( remember I mentioned how heavy it is earlier now you'll find out) after several failed attempts to slide the whole thing into bottom rail we discovered some extra plastic moulded bits probably left over from manufacture preventing it sliding together but then noticed that the side and rear panels had also slide out of alignment during this process so had to start again ( we repeated this several times until eventually all slotted together) the rest went all smoothly. Knowing what I know now would I have purchased this one probably not ( even the plumber I was helping had never come across such a hard cabin shower to build) but am I pleased with it once built? Yes I am, it looks amazing. If I ever had to build another I'm pretty sure it would be easier and less stressful, but I found building this one very frustrating.

From nothing to a fully working shower in around two hours (maybe a couple of extra hours for silicone curing).Fairly self explanatory build and a great showering space. Watch out for the factory fitted waste, I didn't check it well enough at the point where I was setting up the tray and later found it to be leaking. The entire cubicle pulls away from the wall allowing maintenance of all connections, so not the end of the world. The bottoms of the waste outlet of the tray was not very flat so had to really tighten up the waste and add a smear of sealant to the join.
