Shower enclosures River: distinctive features and lineup

A shower cabin is a great option for arranging a bathroom that is not the largest in size. Such a design will not take up very much space and will be distinguished by a pleasant price, ease of installation and use. Its main advantage is the fact that the water consumption here will be much less than in the bathroom, which will significantly reduce costs.

The Russian company River has been operating in the CIS market for over 12 years and has managed to prove itself quite well during this period. The River plant is located in China, which significantly reduces production costs and allows you to set affordable prices for their products.

The brand's products are special shower enclosures, special hydromassage stands, original curtains, various pallets, stylish showers and other popular devices.

Showers from River differ:

• the most modern design;
• assembly mechanism - it is frame;
• acrylic pallets;
• sturdy stands with mixer and shower.

The cab is connected to the sewerage system, plumbing system, and if it has an electrician, then the connection is made to the network.

In this case, the fluid pressure will not exceed 2–5 atm. The electrical devices in the device will operate thanks to a voltage of 12 V, the transformer is included. Characteristics such as shape and appearance, equipment with certain options will directly depend on a particular model. The package usually includes: flexible type connection, mixer, various seals, drain - all the equipment that is necessary to implement the functions that the selected model has.

Shower cabins from the River brand are in great demand due to their features.

1. Huge assortment. You can easily choose a model of a conceived size, a certain design, with a full range of interesting options. The company's catalog contains both standard types and products of not quite typical parameters. The height of the cabins also varies considerably. Here you can find devices completely without tops, which will allow them to best fit into spaces with low ceilings. In addition, the brand produces shower cabins of various shapes: from corner and rectangular to square, with high or very low pallets.
2. Color options can also be called original. Often the rear walls of all available models are made of silver glass, and the doors are made of frosted or even tinted glass, which gives the booth a very stylish look.
3. Using the finest materials. For the production of doors, tempered glass with a thickness of 4–5 mm is selected. It is worth noting that River shower stalls are made of environmentally friendly materials, therefore they will not emit harmful components, and are completely safe during operation.
4. Strength... The company claims that its pallets are capable of withstanding heavy loads of up to 190-200 kg thanks to their sturdy frame. This, in turn, means that such an acrylic product will not be covered with microcracks in a year and a half and will not require a quick replacement.
5. Available for ordinary people prices.

With all the positive aspects, River cabins have certain disadvantages.

1. Minimum set... All components are designed as if the purchased booth would be located close to the water supply, outlet, drain, which is not always feasible in real conditions. For this reason, if you want to put the shower stall in a different place, you should prepare for the fact that some of the components will need to be purchased.
2. Sometimes, after the end of the assembly, the booth is not completely sealed, so you have to use special composition - sealant.
3. Booth height not always convenient for all members of a large family.
4. It is very difficult to assemble such a shower cabin on your own., since the process will require special accuracy and certain professional skills. Inviting specialists, however, can cost a significant amount.

The demand for River products is due to their low price, stylish design and reliability of the device. In the company's catalog you can find not only large shower boxes that are equipped with a large number of original fixtures, but also practical shower corners that are perfect for small spaces.

Showers from the River brand are presented in 4 popular lines.

This series Amur and Desna, Lena and Nara, Neva and Tana, Quadro and Rein. In this class, you can choose products with not the widest range of functions, they can be with or without a roof, with or without electrics, with a shower holder.

For example, River Nara is a wall-mounted rectangular shower cubicle with fiberglass-reinforced acrylic shower base on adjustable feet... Has sliding doors made of toughened safety glass.

Dunay - rectangular-asymmetric cabin with a deep acrylic tray, with hydromassage, built-in seat and anti-slip coating.

These are such popular series as Sena and Sevan, Temza and Wisla. This category has an improved design, a wide range of options, and its cost is appropriate. Temza - a booth in the shape of a quarter circle, the product contains hydromassage and touch control.

8070 and Kongo, Nil and Zangu series. This category is for true aesthetes. A truly luxurious design, a wide variety of sizes, a large number of any possible functions.

There are 3 types of pallets for booths: very low, medium (26 cm high) and very deep (46 cm). The design of the booths is offered for every taste. There are options with different types and colors of doors, with built-in mirrors. The manufacturer River has a special naming convention that makes it a breeze to choose the right model.

For example, the article River Dunay 80/26 MT will mean that the product looks like a quarter circle, has a radius of 80 cm. The height of the pallet will be 26 cm, MT - frosted glass. The article River Dunay 120/80/46 L TH represents an asymmetric cabin with dimensions of 120x80 cm, with a deep pallet of 46 cm, TH - tinted glass. Often the manufacturer can use the following designations in the characteristics: B / K - a cabin without a roof, G / M - a product with hydromassage, P / G - a design with a steam generator.

Choosing the most suitable shower stall for your bathroom, it is worth paying attention to a number of important parameters.

• Dimensions and appearance. Find a place to mount the booth based on the space you have available. It is worth remembering about personal comfort - people who are large in weight and height will not feel comfortable in a small booth.

• Shower tray height... If you have a child, then a tray with high sides can replace an entire bathtub for him. However, it will not be very convenient for the elderly or weak people to get there.

• Functionality. If you can choose the simplest cabin for a small summer cottage, then it is best to install a medium-sized shower stall in an oversized bathroom of an ordinary apartment.

The booths should be washed after each use - immediately to prevent the formation of smudges. Such activities will consist in lightly cleaning the surfaces of the cabin from the inside and then gently wiping them. If there is no serious contamination, then the cleaning agent can not be used, but simply rinse the cab first with warm and then cool water.

The most effective cleansers include all kinds of aerosols and sprays. They must be sprayed onto the contaminated surface, rubbed with a sponge, rinsed with water and wiped dry. It must be remembered that this agent must be sprayed over the entire volume of the product from the inside, and, if necessary, outside. If the pallet is made of acrylic, it is forbidden to use products with abrasives - powders, as well as hard brushes, will immediately spoil the surface of the product. For cleaning such devices, only the softest materials are selected - soft sponges, for example.

Before you start cleaning the booth, you should make sure that the agent used does not contain such components as solvents, that it is free of formaldehyde or acid. Also, when buying, you need to focus on how the composition you purchased interacts with a certain material.

If you read the reviews from buyers of River shower stalls, it becomes clear that they are rather ambiguous.

Many consumers note the quick assembly of the cabin, the stylish design of the entire device, which fits perfectly into any room, as positive aspects. Everyone calls the most significant plus the cost of the product: the average man in the street can easily purchase any model of the company.

At the same time, there are a number of significant complaints about Chinese-made products: low-quality pallets that allow leaks, some note the cramped cabins, the fragility of the entire structure, which can fail even after a couple of weeks of not very frequent use.

Many women notice that in small structures, the storage shelves are very small, nothing fits there, there is not enough space for shampoos and soap.

Thus, the following conclusion can be drawn: models from River do not differ in high cost, so you should not expect excellent quality from them, but at the same time they still have a number of other very interesting advantages.
