For the seventh consecutive year, Worcester, Bosch Group, has come out top in the Which? boiler report having achieved Which? Best Buy status across every boiler it makes, from its Greenstar gas boiler range to its oil-fired models.
In the latest Which? boiler report, the Greenstar range’s overall score meant it was placed nine per cent ahead of the competition and sealed its place as the only boiler brand to have achieved the endorsement for its gas boilers seven years running.
The results were calculated from the views of 10,859 Which? members and 601 members of the public, as well as a total of 179 Which? Trusted Traders who were surveyed about boiler manufacturers they’re not affiliated with.
The Greenstar range achieved the maximum star rating in five of the seven categories, including brand reliability, build quality, availability of spare parts.
Worcester’s flagship boiler range was the only product to achieve a five star rating for overall recommendation, making it the top choice not only with homeowners, but also for non-incentivised engineers.
The report further outlines that an extraordinary four in five who own a Worcester are very satisfied with its boiler and more than three quarters would recommend us to a friend.
For the first year the Greenstar oil boiler range has also obtained Which? Best Buy status, the only oil boiler range on the market to achieve this. Good ratings from homeowners and heating engineers meant that the Greenstar range was 16% points above the nearest competitor. Having achieved a five star rating in three out of four categories, the range was credited as “simply the best oil boiler around according to owners and engineers”.
Martyn Bridges, director of marketing and technical support, said: “We are delighted that every gas and oil boiler we make has now achieved Which? Best Buy Status, which is a very reassuring endorsement for homeowners and heating engineers alike. Although we take pride in saying we manufacture some of the most reliable boilers on the market, we realise that the people who fit them are just as vital in upholding our outstanding reputation.
“The Which? boiler report represents the real thoughts and opinions of homeowners and how likely they are to recommend the brand. The fact we are the only manufacturer to achieve this status for a seventh successive year is a real testament to quality and reliability we consistently achieve.”
