This show panel was a great purchase and you should definitely consider something like this compared to a regular valve/shower head combination (built-in). You get a lot of features for a lot less price. I've also read that the company has top notch support in place - ready to help with warranty or other services if needed. Kudos for that reputation!

If you are doing a remodel, I would highly recommend you take a look at this panel and see if the features are great. VIGO also has higher end models with more features - so they'll have something that will fit your needs.
