Alpha JX2 Bidet Seat Owners Reviews

I was asked to write a review for the Alpha JX bidet and I do so without hesitation. I’m a 72 year old man and had never used a bidet but was curious after a friend told me how much it helped her elderly mother. I did some research and decided on Alpha having read reviews at BidetKing and other sites. The features and benefits of this technology was mind blowing to include: a night light, heated seat; adjustable water pressure, water temperature, nozzle position, and dryer temp all controlled by...

I was asked to write a review for the Alpha JX bidet and I do so without hesitation. I’m a 72 year old man and had never used a bidet but was curious after a friend told me how much it helped her elderly mother. I did some research and decided on Alpha having read reviews at BidetKing and other sites. The features and benefits of this technology was mind blowing to include: a night light, heated seat; adjustable water pressure, water temperature, nozzle position, and dryer temp all controlled by a wall mountable remote. I decided to go for it after seeing so many positive reviews and am so glad I did. Everything promised was delivered including a fairly simple installation and good customer service. Once you individualize the adjustments and experience this new hygienic technology, you’ll wonder why you didn’t get one sooner.  Read Less

This is my 1st bidet seat and, really, my 1st bidet experience. Conclusion: where’ve you been all my life? I did my research and determined that the JX2 was the one to try. I’ve been using it for a solid 6 months now, and I’ve gotten quite used to it. I’m disappointed if I have to use the other bathroom now. The JX2 was part of a comprehensive bathroom renovation. My fist mistake was going with a round instead of elongated commode bowl. There are a few reasons for this, but... Read More

This is my 1st bidet seat and, really, my 1st bidet experience. Conclusion: where’ve you been all my life? I did my research and determined that the JX2 was the one to try. I’ve been using it for a solid 6 months now, and I’ve gotten quite used to it. I’m disappointed if I have to use the other bathroom now. The JX2 was part of a comprehensive bathroom renovation. My fist mistake was going with a round instead of elongated commode bowl. There are a few reasons for this, but suffice it to say, I definitely recommend the elongated over the round, if you have the choice. The beeping: yes, there is a faint “beep” when I sit down (and, I think, also when I stand up.) This can be turned off by plugging in the JX2 while depressing a button on the seat. I’ve found that the house power invariably gets interrupted within days of me doing this, though, and when it comes back on, the seat defaults to beeping again. So, I’ve just gotten used to the beeping. This one’s not that loud. (But it’s still dumb that it beeps. Who needs a toilet seat that beeps? Everything beeps these days. It’s maddening.) The bidet-ing itself is pleasant and effective overall. Sometimes I run concurrent cycles, just to be sure. I recommend pressing the bidet button twice, which gets the wand to do a slight, back-and-forth, scrubbing motion. It was interesting to me to experience changing the water temperature on-the-fly. You push the temp button and that water temperature instantly changes. Speaking of, Alpha should be able to figure out a way to have the initial blast of water be as warm as the rest of it, because it ain’t. It is ALWAYS frigid-cold, just for a second, long enough to make me make a face, and then it’s pleasant. One thing I have noticed recently, temperature-wise, is that the water isn’t always as warm as it was. Maybe my wife is fidgeting with the temp control (which I doubt because she likes everything hotter than I like it), or maybe it’s because the incoming water is much colder than it was in the summer and fall. Regardless, I’ve had some cooler than expected bidets this winter. My wife has complained that, although the wand’s position can be adjusted, she still can’t get it to move far enough forward to be useful in the female application. I have had the same issue at the opposite end. When I’m ready to bidet, even after I draw the wand back as far as it will go, I still have to scoot a little “too” forward on the seat to feel optimally situated. Here is where the elongated bowl and seat (as opposed to the round) could have solved a lot. The drying feature could get warmer faster, which I think would help it not to take so long. I don’t feel the warmth (which could be warmer) until it’s at least a third of the way into its cycle, maybe half way. Before that, it’s just like a cool breeze. It gets high marks for aim though, good aim, just slow to dry. My wife likes the heated seat function, though I could do without it. We both like the night-light feature. I don’t even have to turn the bathroom light on in the middle of the night anymore. I can see everything I need to see. If I was to suggest anything to Alpha, like if they asked me, I’d maybe recommend a model with a throttle on the side, like driving a boat, something you could pull back on to crank up the water pressure. I’d buy that (and maybe a Captain’s hat to wear with it). Read Less

I was skeptical at first of how good they would clean, but it exceeded my expectations. Very easy to use a warm seat, hot water and a refreshing feel every time. My girlfriend absolutely loves it. Once she positioned it for the front cleansing perfectly.She came in the living room and told me she did not need me anymore, ha ha. I use the rear wash even when I don't need to just to stay fresh. Loved it so much. I bought my son and daughter in law one and recommended it to my stepdad and he has al... Read More

Loved it so much. I bought my son and daughter in law one and recommended it to my stepdad and he has also, purchased one. I also showed it to my brother and he said he is going to purchase one.If you don't have one, you must get one. The only thing you may need toilet paper for is to lightly dab off excess water, so that the drying fan can work more effectively to dry you..  Read Less

I have a Horow HR-0080 which is one piece with French curve, the hole center to tank is around 2 inch but the clearance of the edge is only less than 1 inch, see pic. I purchased a Brondell 2200 from Costco but seat it way over the edges to install, so I returned it. Contacted both bio-bidet and Brondell customer support to see if any of their product may fit, the answer is clearly no, they said none of their product can fit french curved toilet even though on their advertisement picture is one...

I have a Horow HR-0080 which is one piece with French curve, the hole center to tank is around 2 inch but the clearance of the edge is only less than 1 inch, see pic. I purchased a Brondell 2200 from Costco but seat it way over the edges to install, so I returned it. Contacted both bio-bidet and Brondell customer support to see if any of their product may fit, the answer is clearly no, they said none of their product can fit french curved toilet even though on their advertisement picture is one of such. Finally I found this ALPHA JX from a thread in Reddit, it saved my toilet. The bracket is perfectly shaped towards the contour (see in the pic), after installing the bidet with some alignment, there is even some spaces left (see pic). For the bidet seat itself, Pros: - Very comfortable to sit on. - Warm water, warm seat and warm air dry are all heated quickly, better than what I had before (own two biobidet and one brondell) - Nozzle Oscillation is easy to set up by pressing twice and even come with wash/dry one button function. - Self nozzle clean before and after use is a plus. Cons: - The base bracket has no rachet on the metal plate, so it is not stable purely by the pressure of screws. - Lack of user customization for multiple users and no deodorizer at this price tag. - No quick release function for uninstallation, lift up at an angel takes some practice and is not secure. Overall, this is the only one I can find on the market, definitely recommend it. And I am very thankful for the customer support from BidetKing, very helpful for me, directly recommended the right product and saved me a bunch of trial-and-return purchases.  Read Less
