Rank #10 in Best Electric Showers 2026: 10 Ranked, Wattage Claims Checked
Mira Elite SE Pumped 9.8kW Electric Shower
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Mira Elite SE sits at number 10 in this guide, and it is the odd one out on the list: it carries a pump. Mira lists an integrated pump and describes the unit as ideal for a low-pressure supply from a gravity fed system, so this is a shower for a loft tank rather than a direct mains feed. It is listed at £268.99, with a 9.8kW figure in the product name, a 110 mm four-spray chrome showerhead and a two year manufacturer warranty.
Unlike the Triton listings above it in this guide, the Mira's headline wattage is not contradicted anywhere else in its own listing. The name says 9.8kW and no bullet argues with it. What does not line up is the ratings block: the five star bars add up to 100 while the listing states 67 ratings, so those bars are shares of the whole rather than numbers of reviewers — and read that way, the 14% one star bar is the second longest, nearly double the 8% four star bar. Its Best Sellers Rank, 61,541 in DIY & Tools and 343 in Handheld Showers, also sits well behind the 26,985 and 161 carried by the Collection 2. Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing, not from any testing of our own.

Questions people ask
Does the Mira Elite SE need a tank?
Yes. Mira lists an integrated pump and describes the unit as ideal for a low-pressure water supply from a gravity fed system, so it is not a swap-in for a mains-fed electric shower.
What wattage is the Mira Elite SE?
The product name states 9.8kW. None of the bullets repeat a wattage figure, so 9.8kW is the only output number Mira gives for this unit.
How loud is it?
Mira says the Elite SE is Quiet Mark approved and that when it is running you will not hear the pump. Buyers describe it as quiet next to their previous showers.
Will it fit where my old Mira was?
Mira says it uses the same footprint and screw holes as the Mira Elite QT and the Mira Elite ST, so it is a like-for-like replacement for those two models.
How are the 67 ratings split?
The listing gives 4.1 out of 5 from 67 ratings. The star bars add up to 100, so they are shares rather than counts: 69% five star and 14% one star, against 8% four star.
What warranty comes with it?
Mira lists a 2 year manufacturer warranty for the Elite SE.
