PureWash® E590 Elongated bidet toilet seat Owners Reviews

I have always wanted a modern bidet. The thought of using toilet paper to clean seems primitive to me and quite frankly doesn't do a thorough job. A bidet seat is a must have for every home. The Kohler K-8298 is awesome! When I first installed it - it was leaking - and I thought I had a fault product ... but then I tightened all the connections with a plumber's wrench, and got it working perfectly. I am still using an extension cord since I didn't have an outlet there already. Eventually, I nee... Read More

I have always wanted a modern bidet. The thought of using toilet paper to clean seems primitive to me and quite frankly doesn't do a thorough job. A bidet seat is a must have for every home. The Kohler K-8298 is awesome! When I first installed it - it was leaking - and I thought I had a fault product ... but then I tightened all the connections with a plumber's wrench, and got it working perfectly. I am still using an extension cord since I didn't have an outlet there already. Eventually, I need to install a GFI outlet here. Appearance The bidet seat doesn't integrate with my Kohler Cimarron as well as the original seat - but it looks decent. It is definitely more ergonomic than the original. Function It took me a few minutes to figure out that you need to sit on the seat to actually make it work (which makes sense). My daughter is 45 pounds and is unable to activate the seat. The controls are fairly intuitive - and once you get used to them - are second nature. The fan does a decent job of drying - but you still need a bit of toilet paper to complete the job. The water jets are incredible ... they don't spray outside of the toilet at all and do a great job cleaning. Overall, I would recommend this product to anyone. It seems expensive for a toilet seat - but it will change your life.  Read Less

I've installed many bidet seats for clients and the universal reaction is "why did I wait so long?" The Kohler C3 155 seat is a full featured bidet seat that is a great value for the price. It installs easily with clear instructions on how to hook up to your existing water supply. You will need a power outlet close to the toilet. While a bidet seat can be a little intimidating at first you quickly learn to use all the features and how to customize it to your needs. The seat does not function un... Read More

I've installed many bidet seats for clients and the universal reaction is "why did I wait so long?" The Kohler C3 155 seat is a full featured bidet seat that is a great value for the price. It installs easily with clear instructions on how to hook up to your existing water supply. You will need a power outlet close to the toilet. While a bidet seat can be a little intimidating at first you quickly learn to use all the features and how to customize it to your needs. The seat does not function unless you are actually sitting on it so that's the best way to learn. This seat has both front and rear sprays that can be adjusted to your needs. All adjustments are made on a keypad on the right side of the seat and you will quickly learn to adjust by feel with a little practice. Many seats offer a remote but personally I don't see the necessity. You can adjust up to 6 levels of heat on the seat surface and the water temperature, and the blow dryer feature is strong and effective. I thought the deodorizer feature was probably a marketing ploy but it actually works noticeably well. There is also a built in blue light for finding the toilet in the dark which gives it a high tech glow and feel. Once you get past being intimidated by a smart seat you really will enjoy the features and wonder how you ever relied on paper before. These are also great for homes on septic systems because not flushing paper is a big load off your system.  Read Less

What a great product ! We have had the KOHLER C3 155 Electric Bidet Seat for about two months now and we love it. After installing an adjacent GFI plug, the package comes with all new flexible white piping and fittings to connect to a toilet. It has many unexpected features: The seat is automatically kept warm or cool as needed. It's washing and drying functions will only operate when you're sitting on. With the press of a button, a nozzle automatically adjusts as needed to your front and... Read More

What a great product ! We have had the KOHLER C3 155 Electric Bidet Seat for about two months now and we love it. After installing an adjacent GFI plug, the package comes with all new flexible white piping and fittings to connect to a toilet. It has many unexpected features: The seat is automatically kept warm or cool as needed. It's washing and drying functions will only operate when you're sitting on. With the press of a button, a nozzle automatically adjusts as needed to your front and rear. The water is automatically heated or cooled as needed. The stainless steel washing nozzle automatically adjusts to spray or pulsing as desired. When a cycle is completed, the nozzle retracts & automatically cleans itself. When washing is completed, a dryer blows cool or warm air as desired. Toilet paper is no longer needed . When you leave the toilet seat, an automatic deodorizer filters the surroundings. It has a built in blue light that kills bacteria. It turns on automatically when you turn the bathroom lights off. It doubles as a great night lite. Both Kohler and Home Depot had a home run with this product. We love it, BOBM1  Read Less

We got this to replace an American Standard bidet seat that eventually worked itself loose from our Kohler toilet. It was no longer possible to tighten that seat, so we decided to get one that exactly fit our Kohler. What I Like: — It fit absolutely perfectly on my elongated bowl Archer toilet and installed quickly and easily. (We don't do plumbing stuff well, but this was very easy.) — This seat has a low profile which looks so much bett... Read More

We got this to replace an American Standard bidet seat that eventually worked itself loose from our Kohler toilet. It was no longer possible to tighten that seat, so we decided to get one that exactly fit our Kohler. What I Like: — It fit absolutely perfectly on my elongated bowl Archer toilet and installed quickly and easily. (We don't do plumbing stuff well, but this was very easy.) — This seat has a low profile which looks so much better than the older model, high in the back, seats of every brand. — The seat is quite comfortable. — The controls are what I was used to (front, back, wand length adjustment, pulse massage, deodorizing fan, heated seat, adjustments for temp and strength of water stream) and are fairly standard on these seats at this point. — The heated seat. This is pretty much the height of civilization, imo. Life doesn't get much better than this! If you live where it gets cold in the winter or even just at night, I cannot emphasize how fantastic this feature is. I like all of the features of this seat, but the heat is easily my favorite. I had it on my previous seat as well and I've been spoiled by it. If I have to sit on a cold seat on a cold morning, it is a most unpleasant shock. The heat can be adjusted or completely turned off. — The UV sanitization feature. This goes on automatically, although getting it to go on only when you want it to, rather than constantly, was more difficult than it should have been. — The drying fan. I did not have this on my previous seat and it's a nice feature - cool, warm and hot. — The seat slips on and off its mooring very easily. This is a very important feature for being able to clean all around the seat. — The night light. My husband likes this feature more than I do. The two lights that make the nice blue glow at night, shine right into the water and are pretty bright when you open the toilet lid. I've learned to look away when opening the lid because the light is bright enough to wake me up more than I want in the middle of the night. There is no dimmer for the night light. It is either On or Off. But my husband is happy that he no longer had to turn a light on in the bathroom. What I Don't Like: — The placement of the controls. When you are sitting, the controls are at about 5:00 (if looking down). That means that you have to twist a bit to see the controls. My husband says he can feel which buttons to push now and no longer has to twist around, but I am still twisting. Not as much, but enough to bug me. My other seat had a remote control, and I should have gotten the Kohler seat that that had it, but the price difference was kind of ridiculous just for a remote. Bottom line: Overall, I like this seat very much. It fits perfectly, does everything it's supposed to do and is easy to clean, which is obviously important. And the heated seat is soooooo nice to have. Read Less
