Hi,

Sorry if this was discussed before, I'm seeking some advice on which brand to replace on my old one.

Now I'm using the Ariston 30L model for the past 10yrs. It got rusty & recently also find it took longer

time to heat up.

Heard that the new Ariston model is not as good as before.

See there's many brand around eg Alpha, Rheem, LA, Magnum(by 707) etc etc.

My present Ariston model is the square type with inlet/outlet facing downwards mounted in my

common bathroom. Not sure if changing to other brand with round drum is advisable considering

if space is ok.

Thank u in advance for any advise from fellow members.

There are some good reviews on Joven.

I heard from my previous contractor that Ariston heaters now can either be made in Italy or Vietnam, which perhaps explains their quality?

I bought one (apparently the model made in Italy) and it takes 15 mins to heat up decently and I set the temp on the heater to the notch just before the maximum. It's also the square type with a similar inlet/outlet style as yours.

The round drum type needs more space (height) and you would need to install brackets below it too. I think it is easily about 1.5 times the height of the Arston heater. The round drums ones are just as good but in my opinion, perhaps not as aesthetically pleasing

707 Multi-15 storage heater is a decent work horse. Made in Holland and comes with copper tank. It cost 2 folds more as compared to other brands but it is worth the investment if you have additional budget.
