Do not buy the BaxiPotterton 105e - trust me, ive got one and im about to rip it out. All Baxi 105e's should be taken to your nearest neighbour with an untaxed car ... that way DVLC will take it away and crush it for free. It is a very unreliable boiler. Plumbers recommend it because its easy for them to fit. This boiler is prone to problems that cost a small fortune to diagnose and a greater fortune to fix. Baxi customer service and backup is non-existent and their repair service overpriced. The diaphrams and divertion valves are generally the first to fail (within a couple of years) followed by the pressure vessel and heat exchanger. Instances of the boiler failing within months are very common. The electronic timer is unreliable and fiddly and complicated to use.This boiler keeps a vast population of gas repair fitters in work ... so do not buy his boiler unless you wish to assist adding to the already high level of unemployment in the building industry! Buy an Italian or German Boiler as Baxi is a rip-off.
