Undersink water heater that won't corrode

    I'm looking to replace 3 undersink water heaters but corrosion is a major issue (in the west) and standard glass lined heaters don't last long before they corrode and leak.

    I can find on the net is ATC models which are dry powder porcelain enamel lined which they say "delivers twice the corrosion resistance of ordinary glass lining"

    I'd rather pay more and get a proper solution and came across the Hyco speedflow 10l model made from stainless steel;
    http://www.hyco.co.uk/products/hot-water/speedflow

    they're more expensive £160 but made from stainless steel, is it worth the extra?

    Any advice?
