Review: Value for money - Nice product and looking great in our new toilet. Main benefit for me, I can charge my electric brush from this. Brilliant quality and fit for purpose.
Review: Top quality, easy to fit. - Perfect replacement for a white plastic switch we had in our kitchen. Modern look, fantastic upgrade on the standard white plastic original switch.
