Hello,

We recently reviewed manufacturers and product/design lines and tried to filter out many that, for various reasons, don’t suit us. Now we have a few left but can’t really assess their quality and value for money – maybe you could share your opinions on this, understanding that some of it will be subjective...

So, ranking by quality and value for money:

1. Burgbad (we like the products and they seem really good, but quality and value for money are unclear)
2. Laufen
3. Duravit
4. Ideal Standard
5. Diana – does anyone know this brand?

In a wider circle:

6. Bette
7. Keramag
8. Keuco
9. Sanipa
10. Villeroy & Boch
11. Vitra

Are all these suitable?
Any of them rubbish?
How would you rank them in terms of quality and value for money?

Our budget just for materials (excluding labor and tiles, which will be extra) is around 20,000-25,000 euros (22,000-28,000 USD) for a main bathroom (18 m² (194 sq ft)) and a guest bathroom (5 m² (54 sq ft)).

Thanks a lot!

Hey,

In 2016, we ordered the bathrooms for our new build through Reuter.de and chose everything from Keramag.

In the kitchen, Villeroy & Boch ceramics were installed.

We are very satisfied and would choose the same again. Your budget depends on what you really plan.
Walk-in shower... bathtub size... etc.
We have a 24m² (258 sq ft) bathroom, a second bathroom of 13m² (140 sq ft), and a guest WC of 9m² (97 sq ft)... and with tiles, electrical work, etc., we were just under €31,000,....
However, we did all the work ourselves, so there were no labor costs.

The really expensive part is the fittings...

Duravit. We have it. No problem with that.

Thank you for your answers, those are already very helpful.

Can anyone share their experience with Burgbad, Laufen, and Diana Bad? We like those as well...

Can anyone say something about Vigour?

Private label of the GC group. In my opinion, available only through GC or the "Elements" bathroom showrooms. It was offered to us as a more affordable alternative to the well-known brands, but I cannot assess the quality.
