Color was a great match. Delivery was as expected. I'd like to have been able to purchase one with a wooden seat or at least something one can sit on top of. Controls could be extended outward, at least slightly, to permit viewing (reading) better. Water pressure could be increased or an option to permit increasing it. Controls are easy to understand and booklet is simple and accurate (no need to have an interpreter).

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.

We had our bathroom remodeled and had a lifetime warranty on the job, the toilet seat split, and I called the company, and they said they'd replace it. After a month it was never replaced so my wife wanted a bidet. This one was on sale, and I bought it. It was an easy install. It takes some getting used to. I'd prefer a handheld control to operate it. I copied the control panel instructions and laminated them and hung it on the shower door. We're still getting used to the control. We're happy with the seat. It's solidly built and works as described.

Happy with purchase.
The only issue that I have is it is hard to see all the cleaning options on the control arm.It would help if control arm was 2-3 inches further up from the bidet seat

Used this bidet seat in our new, remodeled bathroom. We love it! I do wish it had a remote, but if it did, it would probably get lost. I love this!

Pros: It’s neat and fit. No worries for installation compatibility. The control panel is smaller than most other brands.
Cons: After pressing a button, the response time is slightly longer than expected. The control buttons are squeezed due to smaller panel size. It’s easy to misfire a function when adjust the settings, such as pressure and temperature.

Works very well, no remote to get lost, easy to use. Easy to install- no leaks!. Fan could be stronger but that is my only issue.

Cons - seat on the small side, controls too far back (can't really see when you need to), installation book great but instruction book not very detailed (5 settings but how do you read the buttons?). Pros - looks nice, easy installation & night light is great! Have used better bidet seats but then again if instructions were better, this one might be better. Still playing around with settings. We'll see?
