Do you find it provides enough hot water ?
I’ve been told that a combi night not provide enough water to run two bathrooms at once

Ours doesn't. It's one at a time. No biggie. Someone has to wait.

One shower wont get very hot. Usually the one furthest from the boiler

We run 2 at the same time, i can tell when DH turns his on as mine does run cooler for a few seconds, I just turn the temp up, no issues.

We had a large combi boiler that could run 2 showers at once without problems. It was this one: Vaillant EcoTEC Plus 938

Our property had 4 bedroom and 3 bathrooms and the boiler worked well and never caused us any problems.

We’ve got a combi and two baths. I bought a high end combi (Worcester that cost £1,500 for the boiler alone) and it happily runs two baths at once. Not as hot as only one running but good enough.

We can't even run a tap and have a shower at the same time! It's very underpowered for the size of house... It's in the list of things to do!

We have a Valiant Ecotech. We can run two showers at the same time with only a tiny difference in pressure and temperature.

As some of the others have said, Vaillant Ecotec have superb combi boilers. Have a look at the range on their website, and also if you get one of their registered fitters to install it, you get a 7 or even 10 year guarantee!. Vaillants also use stainless steel heat exchangers which last longer.
