“Ideal Logic Combi C35”

★★★★★

written by XimenaMacLeod on 07/05/2019

Great boiler, simple to install for the installer and simple to operate. It is energy efficient and the boiler package was a good price (flue, timer). Comes with a 5 year warranty on the condition the boiler is serviced annually by a Gas safe engineer. Good boiler for a mid-range choice.

“Biggest mistake purchasing from Ideal boilers ”

★☆☆☆☆

written by norris4200 on 07/04/2018

Had new boiler fitted in 2016 2 year warranty,developed fault Feb 2018,contacted Ideal regarding breakdown,they did not want to know even though still under warranty. This week 4th April i received a request for my bank details for a direct debit as my Warranty runs out in a couple of Months,so why would they not repair my boiler. As i am A 77 year hold i found it difficult having to pay British Gas £99 pounds to fit a new igniter after such a short time of having boiler fitted. My advice to anybody wanting to purchase a new boiler is,Keep well away from IDEAL BOILERS,And poor customer service,LEAVING ME £99 pounds poorer.One unhappy Pensioner.

“Logic + combi 30 problem sorted under warrantee.”

★★★★★

written by on 10/10/2017

We moved into our bungalow a year ago and enjoyed the warmth of heating and hot water from the above boiler installed in Jan 2014. A month ago an error code of "Ignition Lockout" showed after it had stopped working. This was followed by "Check all other gas appliances work" then "Reset boiler" and finally "Call installer". Having followed the instructions without success I called the installer who suggested I contact Ideal as the boiler was still under warrantee. An appointment was made for the following Wednesday although I received a call from them on the Monday to say they'd had a cancellation and could come a day earlier if preferred. The boiler is installed in the loft and it was necessary for the loft to be boarded with lighting installed in order for the engineer to access it and work safely. He duly arrived on the new date and set to work. Upon taking him up a cup of tea after a quarter of an hour or so he seemd to have most of the insides stripped out. However, a half an hour later it was all back together and working again. Apparently the problem was a dirty probe which he'd cleaned and returned. It should have been cleaned at the last service! Relieved it was sorted under warranty and has been working fine since.

“Ideal Logic + ”

★★★★★

written by on 05/01/2017

We have the Ideal Logic+ 35 boiler installed (that replaced an awful Ferroli! ) It has been Quiet, Efficient and reliable and so far has been good value for money. The remote Wireless Controller and thermostat are simple to use and we have found that the Ideal heats up much quicker than either of our previous 2 Boilers and the fact that it is smaller and queiter is a bonus. So far so good but will be back again to report progress Only downside thus far is that the wireless controller does not have a night setting although there is 5 degree frost Protection that kicks in if needed

“Ideal combi 24 (not the PLUS model)”

★☆☆☆☆

written by O'Connor401 on 28/11/2016

I had this IDEAL combi 24 fitted in 2013. It is now 3 and 1/2 years old. It is now leaking water from the main heat exchanger into the condensate pipe, which aparantly is becoming a common fault. I`m lucky that is where the water is going otherwise I would have a very wet floor. I have read that many of these heat exchangers were low quality and made in China. I am waiting on the engineer to replace it in two days time. (HEX`s) Heat exchangers should last at least ten years. So these boilers are not fit for purpose. I had this boiler fitted under the warm front scheme. Someone it seems was making money from installing cheap boilers.......

“Worked for ten years.”

★★☆☆☆

written by DaveCaravan on 02/03/2016

Installed on government Warmfront grant scheme. Just packed up after ten years which seems pretty good life for this device. It's corroded to bits, unrepairable.

“Disgusting ”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Walkeren310 on 02/12/2015

I had a problem with water not getting hot on occasions n despite having the yearly services required to maintain my warranty when I called to report this known problem they couldn't find my details on the system so no valid warranty n therefore it was going to cost me £120 for them to fix it, I argued till I was blue in the face n they won't do nothing unless I pay, the installer said if that was the case he wasn't fitting any more boilers n still they don't care!! I'm informing watchdog next!!

“Highly unreliable boiler”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Juane500 on 29/10/2015

Ideal icos HE boilers are nothing but trouble. There customer service is also rubbish. I have emailed them several times but never even had a response. I live in a new housing development & I can tell you several people in our street have actually binned them when they were less then 3 years old. There is a common fault with the PCB. I am on my third PCB & the boiler is only 8 years old. I have now decided to join the rest of the street & throw it in the bin. so good luck if you buy one.

“don't confuse the rubbish ideal isar with brilliant...”

★☆☆☆☆

written by ZaraHahn258 on 02/09/2015

0ideal isar boilers of many years ago were problematic, but the new ideal vogue is entirely re-designed and has premium components, unlike the budget Isar 0 which was used for Government free schemes. The Vogue has the same quality components as the Vaillant and the manufacturer's are offering 7 or 10 years guarantees - depending upon their installers! Time will show that the new Ideal wishes to forget the Isar and will herald the Vogue as the fore-runner with Vaillant.

“Worst boiler ever! Installed under warm front scheme!”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 06/02/2015

Boiler was installed under warm front scheme late 2009. It has now completely broke. The heat exchange has gone. Engineer has looked at it, they said boiler was manufactured in 2005, so was 4 years old when installed! No wonder it has been so rubbish! Warm front scheme have left us buggered by installing something they have bought cheap and that blatantly is a pile of rubbish! Avoid at all costs!!

“Rubbish junk boilers”

★☆☆☆☆

written by robertringo on 25/05/2014

We have had problems with hot water, heating, fuses being blown, pcb being changed at least 4 times, fan and other parts we do not remember the names of. Even in summer to get luke warm water I have had to leave it on from 9am this morning till 4pm Please stay clear of Ideal boilers. I hate them so much. There is nothing to like about this boilers. Not fit for the purpose. Even the engineers hate them. Ideal should go into a different trade which they know about and stop making these rubbish. Don't waste your money and time on this scrap. Wish I had read the reviews before.
