Any recommendations for buying bathrooms online?

Hi, I need to buy sanitary ware for our house renovation - I don't need installation as our builders will do that.
Any suggestions for a good online site to buy bathrooms? I don't necessarily feel like I need to see a bathroom in person before I buy as I'm not looking for anything particularly exciting - just white and modern.

Totally fine if you don't want to but I really would have a little squiz round a showroom as things online can look very different in person - something that measurement-wise seems right can seem too small or big in person, or just not what you thought it would be like. Also toilets. Do try and sit on your toilet before you buy it.

Anyway - qssupplies was fine for us but I didn't order that much from there. But they seem to have eeeeeverything.

Victorian Plumbing (not to be confused with Victoria Plumb, which is a slightly more expensive bathroom site) is a good starting point.

Second victorian plumbing also bathrooms.com personally I check out ebay for same/similar stock but negotiate keener prices. Have just renovated a bathroom in a victorian house for £138 for loo and sink plus £57 for a kaldewei bath (did have to collect the bath) 20sm metro tilesor £325 via stone trader, shower £75 via ebay plus ebay taps at £59. Spend time evaluating the style you like then use different companies to source different items. Google discount codes before checking out and be cheeky...don't ask, don't get! Good luck!

I found the opposite, one white bath looks much the same as another online. It was only in a showroom that I could judge the differences.

Our local independent ended up being cheaper than getting the same stuff online and could deliver in a quicker timescales.

I second betterbathrooms. I did go and have a shifty round one of their showrooms first though, and learnt that price does count; I found I wasn't that impressed with the stuff I had intended to buy and instead went for a more expensive range, which I love. Not so impressed with taps - would buy better ones given the chance again. Customer service excellent.
