My girlfriend had a bathstore shower fitted a while back (see attached), and the knobs have worked loose seeing as they're made out of plastic. Could anybody advise as to whether it's economical to get new knobs, and if so, where from? Failing that, which is the best make shower to have fitted that doesn't have inbuilt flaws like this? Perhaps one with more robust metal knobs?

Welcome to the forum Peter. Thinking you will be lucky to buy the parts on their own, that said send the photos to the shower doc and cross your fingers. Good place to start regarding replacing is the pipe centres (Hot n cold coming through the wall) are yours 150mm apart?

i have seen that set on sale before, very cheap in blister pack!!
very easy to change whole lot and can cost from £45 upwards which wouldnt be a bad choice as the thermostat will go next.
