    Just explain he facts,I explain only reason so cheap,is because no one will buy them,would not think a l/l will keep the 5 year cover valid anyway,paying for yearly services ect

    Maybe I am a good salesman but think could talk any one out of picking boilers mentioned

    ps can I interest you in some designer watches, guaranteed till cheque clears

    imho

    we would all like to fit premiuim boilers unfortunatlry in the real world cost is a factor, ill fit anything the customer wants its there money to spend as they choose
    how many plumbers are driving rolls royces, not many ,as we also choose our products partly based on cost

    could always try a broag remeha avanta plus 24c or 28c fairly simple and afterservice is good, 5 year warranty. only trouble is they are now in with baxi so may deteriorate in quality and aftersales.
