Square white stainless steel shower system with storage basket

The first detail you notice in the photos is the white basket hung halfway up the rail. Its open-work sides let the water drain away: bottles do not sit in a puddle, and you no longer need a shelf screwed beside the shower.

Above, the column keeps a simple silhouette: a square rain shower on a straight arm, and a small square handset on its sliding holder. Everything is white, from the tube to the mixer, with a few chrome touches on the connectors. In a bright bathroom the whole set is discreet; against dark tiles it draws a clean line.

At the bottom, the lever mixer controls the water, and the selector on top of the body sends it to the top of the column or to the spout below. The spout is handy for filling a bucket, rinsing the tray or washing your feet without getting everything else wet.

On the left, a small trigger handset has its own hose and wall holder. It is used for cleaning the shower, intimate hygiene or rinsing a pet. The close-up photos show it connected directly to the mixer body: no extra water supply is needed for it.

The photo of the package shows the column delivered in parts: rain shower, arm, rail, handset, small handset, two hoses, mixer, basket, two rosettes, two eccentric connectors, fittings and an instruction sheet. The eccentrics make up for a small offset between the wall water supplies.

The rail is fixed with a wall bracket that needs drilling; the mixer screws onto the existing supplies. Replacing an existing wall mixer is a job for a careful DIYer; on a new wall, a plumber is needed. For upkeep, wipe white with soapy water, with no abrasive sponge that would dull the surface.
