Night light

I love this except one feature. You cannot turn off the light night, and it’s pretty bright, so I have to close the toilet seat

I’ve been using for a while now and love it. My toilet paper use is almost non existent. Only use it for random spot checks. The night light is great. Heated seat and water is great, both adjustable. Water pressure is adjustable. The dryer fan has adjustable heat as well. I feel like I am using an outhouse when I use a public restroom anymore. This will pay for itself in no time and now my septic tank can get a break from all the toilet paper.

Easy to assemble, works great. I really don’t like the nightlight, but you can turn that off. Since it’s a heated seat you gotta keep the rim of your bowl COMPLETELY clean because the heat activates the smell of the slightest tiny fleck of pee. Good excuse to practice better hygiene, I guess. The seat is super comfortable, the contour feels great to sit on. It does look a little funny, because it sticks up so far in the back, but that’s not a surprise. It’s pricey, but very well made and works great. So far the wand keeps itself pretty clean too. Coming from a cheap cold water only biden seat, this is a massive upgrade.

This bidet is Great!

In Europe, bidets are more common than here in the USA. A friend had a KOHLER 8298-0 PureWash E590 Elongated Bidet Toilet Seat, Heated Bidet, Bidets for Existing Toilet and she let me try it. I was SOLD. The controls are adjustable, from pressure to heat with a sanitizing fan and night light. What more could you want? Water does spray out so you must wipe that down on the back of the seat. Not a problem for me.

Worth Every Penny

I spent a lot of time looking around Amazon for an electric toilet seat/bidet and I kind of got into "analysis paralysis" with all of the choices, the different prices, all of the different features, and all of the positive and negative reviews. I knew going with Kohler was somewhat of a safe bet because I have a few of their other products and the quality seems to be good. Basically, I knew I wanted an electric toilet seat with a bidet with a seat heater, electric deodorizer, and with warm wate...

I spent a lot of time looking around Amazon for an electric toilet seat/bidet and I kind of got into "analysis paralysis" with all of the choices, the different prices, all of the different features, and all of the positive and negative reviews. I knew going with Kohler was somewhat of a safe bet because I have a few of their other products and the quality seems to be good. Basically, I knew I wanted an electric toilet seat with a bidet with a seat heater, electric deodorizer, and with warm water. I also knew I did NOT want a toilet seat with a remote controller (seriously, why do you need a remote to control something you are literally sitting on?). I found this bidet to be fairly easy to install. I have almost zero plumbing experience, so I was thankful for that. The seat controls are VERY easy to figure out. Everything is pretty self-explanatory. The deodorizer is...ok. It's not the greatest, but it's WAY better than a bidet that doesn't come with one. I love that the toilet seat has an automatic light that turns on at night. I like that it is self-cleaning. I love that the seat is always warm. *One thing to note is that the bidet does not have a connection to your hot water source.* This was actually a POSITIVE selling point for me, because I didn't want to have to drill a hole in my cabinet to get to the sink connections. This means, however, that even if you set the bidet water to the warmest setting, is not going to be warm right away. It does warm up very quickly (I'm talking seconds), though, and I have had no issues with it. The electrical cord doesn't reach too far. My bathroom outlet is right next to the toilet, but it is on TOP of the counter, not below it (I feel like this is how most bathrooms are). So I was disappointed that the cord does not reach that far, however, I got an inexpensive 3-pronged extension cord and that solved the problem. Ultimately, I've had this toilet seat / bidet for about 3 months now and I still love it. Guests love it too! For what fancy bidets are going for these days, I think this is absolutely worth it.

Amazing bidet seat

This is an amazing bidet seat. It is heated (our bathroom is chilly, so this is welcome at night), has a soft blue nightlight (also welcome at night), and the expected cleaning functions are very convenient and comfortable. Would highly recommend.

This model is a bit expensive, because it heats water being sprayed. I believe some models use UV lights to prevent bacterial growth, but this only has a nightlight

Fits our Koehler toilet perfectly. Smooth installation.

Works well. Easy to install. Love the light at night. I can’t compare this to others as far as how it functions but it seems to work as it’s supposed to.
