The Bay-Bee, described as ‘compact conservatories’ by Eurocell was launched a few years ago now and I am surprised that they are not selling as well as they might.
According to Eurocell’s Bay-Bee brochure,
The Bay–Bee combines the very best things about a compact conservatory with an understated style and attitude that creates a buzz and gets heads turning.
Unapologetically compact, this confident design fits perfectly onto any home and enhances busy lifestyles that demand more space. It’s small enough to allow your garden to breath yet big enough to be genuinely useful.
Imagine what you could have, a dedicated dining area, a play space for the kids, or a garden room where you can sit back and enjoy the view.
I think Eurocell have presented the Bay-Bee very well but there is one major disadvantage for home owners;
The Bay-Bee is intended to be an alternative to a patio door or French doors, rather than a small, compact conservatory. Therefore, the existing internal doors that separate the house from the Bay-Bee are normally removed, consequently bringing the Bay-Bee in to the realms of building regulations.
Also, compared to DIY conservatories which are now common place in the UK, there is very little price difference between installing a Bay-Bee and installing an average size DIY conservatory.
Further, and subject to certain criteria, DIY conservatories are not normally governed by building regulations so there is far less hassle for the consumer.
A similar product is Litespace which does the same job but is a slightly different shape to the Bay-Bee, this too falls under building regulations if the separating doors are removed, which they nearly always are.
Overall, the Bay-Bee is a great luxury product that can really enhance the appearance of a home and I would personally recommend it in places where outside space is somewhat limited, although I think the small price difference compared to DIY conservatories and the building regulation issues hold it back a little.
