Ideal Standard bathrooms review

More than 3,700 bathroom buyers answered our survey to rate popular bathroom companies, including Vitra, Roca, Victorian Plumbing and Ideal Standard.

The company people were happiest with got an impressive customer score of 89%. At the other end of the scale, the least favoured brand got 61%.

As well as asking people about their bathroom as a whole, we also asked them to rate individual fixtures – sink, taps, bath, shower enclosure and toilet – for durability and quality. One company got a dreadful one-star rating and a lot of two stars (five is the maximum).
