I can't imagine living without this item. Everything is controllable, seat temp., Water temp., Water pressure, self cleaning nozzle, all with a remote control. Setup took me 15 minutes. Setup is super easy, just follow the directions. If you use it correctly, forget toilet paper. The only thing I would add is the dryer. You may need to use the dryer 2 cycles. That's what I do to avoid using any toet pressure. Highly Recommend, will pay for itself in a matter of months.

It’s a very good bidet for the price. So far working well. Has most of the features. I had Bio Bidet before. It was leaking and had other problems also. This one has most of the features that Bio Bedet had except dryer. I didn’t use the dryer anyway, because it took too long and still didn’t do a good job. This bidet some more features like memory settings. Adjustable nozzle position and adjustable water force. 👍. Hope it works well for long period!
Bought this model on a Black Friday sale and it is wonderful. Water stays warm for several minutes, blower is spot on and the controls are easy to understand. The gentle and pulse modes are nice to have. It was easy to install. Night light is really bright. I have 2 other bidets in my home slightly cheaper and this model is by far the best and worth the extra money.

Economical, Comfortable, Worth Every Penny

This bidet is really something. It is packed with features and super easy to install. Fits my older toilet perfectly. The design allows for a lot of adjustment options without having the seat attached. That makes finding the perfect position when installing a breeze.

This bidet is really something. It is packed with features and super easy to install. Fits my older toilet perfectly. The design allows for a lot of adjustment options without having the seat attached. That makes finding the perfect position when installing a breeze. Once installed it stays put and does not move even slightly. That is thanks to the quality anti slip strips on the seat mounting bracket. The remote is very nice. I love the ability to store two user settings. Once programmed you never need to adjust the settings again. Simply push the user 1 or 2 button and viola you are good to go, no pun intended. Great array of water pressures, temperatures, and nozzle locations. It even has different spray patterns. The heated water lasts for a full 2 minute wash cycle but I have not needed two minutes yet. The hottest setting is plenty hot too. Both the lid and seat are soft close. The seat heater is a luxurious feature but it does not automatically shut off. Would be nice to have the heater sense when you sit and shut down when you are done but it’s not a deal breaker. I also love the heated drier feature. You must keep in mind that it is normal to have residual moisture. The soft blue light is great and it can also be disabled. Haven’t used a single piece of TP since I installed my bidet. It’s a nice feeling to know I am helping the environment AND getting cleaner at the same time. I also purchased the in-line water filter and am just as pleased with it. This is a quality product made by a reputable company. It’s worth every penny. I don’t think you can find a more feature packed bidet for the price. Buy with confidence.

Love it

So we’ve had this over a month and the first bidet we’ve ever had. Bought it to decrease on TP use, but also the cleansing aspect. Really, really like it. Only suggestions are to not waste money on the drying option ( as mentioned by a previous reviewer). It doesn’t really dry well, so save a few bucks. Also wish the remote lit up at night so you don’t have to turn on the lights to use it at night.
Update. It’s been over 6 months since we’ve started using this bidet. I like it more and more every day and recommend it to anyone who’ll listen. Do not hesitate to invest in this. BTW, I’ve been looking at moving and the first thing I look at when it comes to bathrooms is does it have an electrical outlet close to the toilet.
I have had a much cheaper and more simplistic Brondell bidet seat for years (that just connected to both hot and cold water lines and had a manual valve to turn on). From the time I purchased it, I absolutely loved it.
I was moving to a new home, and decided that as pleased as I'd been with what I had, there were a few shortcomings. I decided to upgrade to the LE99, and am thrilled so far.
Installation was easy, though the instructions not outstanding. I won't lie, there were two rubber washers...

Installation was easy, though the instructions not outstanding. I won't lie, there were two rubber washers in the package that I couldn't find anywhere in the instructions. I don't have leaks the in the water lines, so I'm hoping that I don't run into trouble down the road.
The heated seat is a nice feature, and can be very subtle on the low setting. Just enough to take off any chill.
It definitely does it's job, and can be adjusted well for position, pressure, and water temperature. There are times that it seems not to hold the water temperature for as long as other times, and I really haven't figured out why. However, even the times that it seems to cool a little are not a big deal as the temperature is more than comfortable.
As others have mentioned, the dryer is weaker than what you'd need to be all that dry. But, since I was upgrading from a model that had no drier at all, I suppose my standards are fairly low on that end, so I'm satisfied enough.
I'm nervous about all the electronics and the motorized nozzle on this, since my former seat was so simplistic. I hope it's built to last with all those bells and whistles.
Thus far, very satisfied with the purchase
What I like: Super easy installation. I like the water pressure, the water temperature, the remote control, and the attached side control. Oh, and the heated seat It’s nice to set your preferences on the remote and then set it to the side and use the attached quick control. Just keep it handy because if the power goes off it erases your preferences.

Oh, and the heated seat It’s nice to set your preferences on the remote and then set it to the side and use the attached quick control. Just keep it handy because if the power goes off it erases your preferences. To work the remote you have to hold the buttons you are setting to get them to react, which is smart in case you have children who impatiently try to mash the buttons— they give up quickly. Sometimes I’ve had to move the remote to get a better signal but that’s no big deal and I could only get the settings saved for one user not two. Also the dryer works but I’m not going to sit there long enough to get dry….who has that much time? I use a little tissue to pat dry. I’ve had this for about 5 months and I’m very pleased. The water temperature can be set from cold to very warm almost hot and so can the seat temperature . If you set the water for warm it stays warm and doesn’t run into cold before you are through. You can even change the water pressure. The blue light is just bright enough to go in the middle of the night without turning on the lights. In March when it was still cold it was pleasant to sit on a warm seat ! Overall, I’m very pleased and have recommended it to a few friends already. It’s nice to be clean! Everyone should have one!
Hardest part of this install was determining how to power it. Luckily for me I could pull power from an outlet on the opposite side of the wall. So I added a new outlet and tapped into the one on the other side of the wall.
The pressure is great, at max it is strong but not too strong.
I find it easy to zero in on the proper settings for maximum effectiveness.
The heated seat and water in a joy. currently I use the low settings in eco mode.
The fan is nice but could probably use a power booster...

The fan is nice but could probably use a power booster above the current max setting.
I like the blue night vision it give the whole toilet/bidet a modern feel while being practical.
The size/mass of the bidet is immense and will take some getting used to. It give the toilet a larger presence in the room.
The remote is modern, sleek and easy to use. I choose to power with 8 rechargeable batteries to cut down on waste and make sure I always had a working remote, using 4 at a time with 4 in reserve to swap out.
Over all I am happy with this product! I would buy again for my second bathroom once I remodel it and add power.

My wife and I needed an alternative to toilet paper for a couple of reasons: the great toilet paper shortage of 2020 and medical conditions. This is our first experience with a bidet so I can’t compare it to other options but I can tell you about this particular model. We got the set with the remote and dryer (there are options without these features you can deject from). The remote is a must. You can mount it in a convenient location and this seat has enough buttons you don’t want to be fumbling around with buttons to the right and back while sitting on the throne. The nozzle position is adjustable but will also require you to slightly move for it to be effective. The water temperature options are great so you don’t have cold (especially winter) water spraying at you bottom. The air dryer is like trying to dry off after a shower with a cheap hair dryer, so you will be an option to pat dry. You can use a wash cloth, towel or make some cloth towelettes for the purpose. After patting dry the air dryer can finish the job so the dryer option is not completely useless—just all but. The biggest downside is you will be sitting around for an additional 2 to 4 minutes compared to using toilet paper.

See Brondell site to compare models first

Go to the Brondell website to compare their various models before choosing. There you'll find much better descriptions. I'm replacing my 5 year old Swash 300. Though it was disappointing that it failed in 5 short years, I chose to replace it with another Brondell as I thought at least I wouldn't have to replace the mounting hardware... Not!

Here are the differences between my old 300 and this new one as I see them: The LE99 is thicker and more comfortable than my old 300. It makes my "comfort height" Toto Aquia darn near a bar stool! (I exaggerate). But for me, that's a good thing. Another positive is the "Programmable User" feature. Other differences I like are: Adjustable nozzle position, oscillating nozzle and "ECO" features. The only negative is the remote's buttons are flush, not like the raised blister buttons on the old 300's controller. Therefore I can't work them in the dark anymore. I carry a tiny flashlight at night rather that turn on the room light. The blue night light in the bowl is no help when you're sitting on it! And the blue light is apparently just that, a night light, albeit pretty cool looking. It's not, from what I've learned, an ultra-violet sanitizer; drat. Since blue light quenches ones night vision (more than would red light) as well as any melatonin, and I'd like to not wake up any more than necessary on my frequent night trips, I never turn it on. I don't use the seat warmer either, and I've found the air dryer to be way too slow to be useful. So I could have saved a few bucks had I taken my own advice and gone to the Brondell website first. But in the end, I'm pleased with my purchase and would recommend a Brondell to my friends. I strongly recommend a bidet for elderly or physically challenged folks like myself. Well, for anybody actually!
