Does anyone have any experience with these or any other brands? which is a better one. I am in the process of setting a steam unit for my shower.
Many thanks

I did a lot of looking before buying our steam unit. IMO, the two brands you mention are probably about equal in quality, the Kohler (which appears to be an older Thermasol model) is probably equivalent to them as well. The current Thermasol units appear to be a step above as far as cleaning/flushing, IMO. There's really not a huge difference between the mid priced units, all have stainless steel tanks, pretty much about the same heating elements, some have prettier controls than others. For long term life, feeding them soft water and flushing the tanks regularly should do much to prolong most of the units' lives.

After I posted this, I looked at thermasol wesbite..they definitely seem to be a step ahead with life warranty and instant steam. I will go with them. Thank you for your input though.
