A 1000 x 800 mm shower tray measures 100 x 80 cm, or about 39.4 x 31.5 inches. Among the listed options, the ELEMENTS ready-to-tile tray is the closest exact match and is best for a tiled shower design. The vidaXL base is a nearby rectangular option, while the other products are either a much larger shower base or accessories—not direct substitutes. Check dimensions, drain placement, and installation requirements before ordering.

| vidaXL ABS Shower Base | Compact rectangular shower layouts | Approx. 70 x 100 cm |
| SMC Shower Base | Large shower installations | 72 x 36 inches |
| Larch Corner Shower Gate | Corner-tray users seeking a slatted side | Accessory for an 80 cm tray |
| Home Intuition Bath Caddy | Bath use, not shower installation | Not a shower tray |
ELEMENTS Ready-to-Tile Shower Tray
Best for: A 100 x 80 cm shower with a tiled finish. This product is listed at the target dimensions and arrives factory sealed with a point drain and factory slope on four sides. It is ready to tile, making it the most direct match for shoppers searching for a 1000 x 800 shower tray.
The listed system supports horizontal or vertical drainage when combined with compatible LUX Elements floor drain pots for a point drain. Features also include a sealed floor-drain mounting frame, a secure click connection, and a second drainage level.
Consideration: This is a tile-ready base rather than a finished white acrylic-style tray. Confirm drain-pot compatibility and the required drain orientation before purchase.
vidaXL Rectangular ABS Shower Base
Best for: Buyers considering a white ABS rectangular base when an exact 100 x 80 cm footprint is not essential. Its stated size is 27.6 x 39.4 inches, approximately 70 x 100 cm, so it is close in length but narrower than the target 80 cm width.
Choose this if the bathroom opening and enclosure can accommodate its actual dimensions. Its ABS construction and white finish distinguish it from the tile-ready ELEMENTS option.
Consideration: It is not an exact 1000 x 800 mm match. Avoid choosing it without checking the product’s full measurements against the available space.
SMC Single-Threshold Shower Base
Best for: A larger shower installation, not a compact 100 x 80 cm footprint. The listed SMC base measures 72 x 36 x 4 inches and has a center drain, single threshold, white finish, and slip-resistant textured surface.
This may suit buyers specifically looking for a broad rectangular pan with a textured standing surface. Its dimensions make it a clear comparison point for shoppers willing to consider a substantially larger base.
Consideration: At 72 x 36 inches, it is much larger than 1000 x 800 mm. Check room dimensions and drain location before considering it.
Natural Larch Corner Shower Gate
Best for: Shoppers who already have a compatible corner shower tray and want a wooden side or gate accessory. The listing describes European larch, PEFC-certified wood, a 64 cm corner side for an 80 cm tray, and a non-slip slatted profile measuring 67 x 19 mm.
This is included as a related accessory, not as a replacement shower base. Its stated 80 cm tray reference may be relevant when planning a corner installation.
Consideration: It is not a waterproof shower tray and does not provide a 100 x 80 cm base. Confirm the intended tray setup before buying.
Home Intuition Expandable Bath Caddy
Best for: Bath users seeking a caddy that rests across a bathtub. Its expandable design slides to adjust to different tub widths, and the listed features describe space for activities such as reading, using a phone, or holding a drink.
This item is not a shower tray; it is included only as a bath-related product from the supplied list. Choose it for bathtub convenience, not for a shower renovation.
Consideration: It does not form a shower floor, contain water as a base, or match a 1000 x 800 mm installation footprint.
Buying Guide: How to Choose a 1000 x 800 Shower Tray
Does the tray need to measure exactly 100 x 80 cm?
Measure the installation space in millimeters and compare it with the manufacturer’s stated dimensions. A product described as “close” may still be too narrow or too long for an enclosure. The ELEMENTS option is the only listed tray explicitly sized 100 x 80 cm.
Which material and finish suit the project?
A ready-to-tile base supports a tiled finish, while the listed alternatives include ABS and SMC bases with white finishes. Compare the installation style and surface described for each product rather than assuming one material is interchangeable with another.
What should I check about the drain?
Confirm whether the tray uses a point or center drain and whether its position matches existing plumbing. For the ELEMENTS base, review the stated drain-pot system and horizontal or vertical drainage options. Do not assume that drain components are included unless the listing confirms it.
How do accessories differ from shower trays?
A tray is the floor base of the shower. The larch gate is a corner accessory, and the bath caddy is designed to rest across a bathtub. Neither is a substitute for a waterproof shower base.
