This is an electric bidet so you would need an electrical outlet near your toilet to plug it in. Lots of features and like two water sprays, self-cleansing feature after every use. Instant heating for unlimited warm water. Soft night light for use during night time. It's low profile so it doesn't seem bulky or add too much height on your toilet seat. Worth the price.

Pretty good product overall. Easy to install. I've only had the product for a few weeks but it seems to be well constructed from quality part. Some surprises for a first time user; heated seat :), the water was warmed to an appropriate temperature, and wand clean themselves upon sitting (occasionally pre-splashing user). One flaw might be that the wands are stationary requiring the user to make some adjustments during use.

[Incentivized Review] First Bidet Experience - Thumbs Up
one startwo starsthree starsfour starsfive stars
A little unsure, but found it useful for cleansing. The added features of the night light, and heated seat (with dual settings) definitely enhances the value. Also, the fact that the wand rinses itself allays any fears that debris may build up over time.
Installation was pretty straight forward, despite having to install an outlet. Outside of that, it was merely a matter of replacing a seat, connecting the hose, and plugging it in. Pretty simple actually.

A 'wish' would have been for a seat with a dryer since wiping after washing is a bit damp from just a drip dry. This might be something to consider highlighting so there is no confusion in which model to purchase.
All-in-all, great product to significantly upgrade a bathroom experience without having to replace an entire toilet.

The seat was incredibly easy to install, I replaced the old one in about 30 minutes. All of the required hardware is included, all you need is a screwdriver and (maybe) an adjustable wrench (don’t overtighten). It is important to note that you do need to have an electrical outlet nearby. I installed a new one a few weeks ago knowing that I was getting this.

The seat was incredibly easy to install, I replaced the old one in about 30 minutes. All of the required hardware is included, all you need is a screwdriver and (maybe) an adjustable wrench (don’t overtighten). It is important to note that you do need to have an electrical outlet nearby. I installed a new one a few weeks ago knowing that I was getting this.
The seat itself is comfortable, but you do lose some sitting room and the opening is smaller compared to the regular toilet seat it replaced, because the back part of the seat that houses the electronics and such take up some of the space. It is also simple to use, there are two buttons on left that toggle through low, medium and off settings for the heated seat temperature and water temperature. The dial on the right controls the water flow and ‘aim’ (forwards for front, back for rear and center for ‘off’). The flow isn’t overpowering, but enough to get you clean, and the water warms almost instantly. The sprayer itself is contained when not it use and has a self cleaning system, while the exterior doesn’t appear to be any more difficult to clean than any other seat. It also has a light that automatically illuminates for nighttime visits. My only complaint would be that the cord could be a little longer. I was able to reach mine on the opposite side, but an extra foot or two would’ve been nice so I could tuck it away better.
In summary, it may seem a little expensive at first, but when you consider what you pay for a night or two at a fancy hotel compared to something like this that will last you for years of use, I think it is totally worth it. It will also save you money on toilet paper (although you’ll still need some to dry off) and have less impact on your pipes and the environment. It will get you cleaner and the seat heater and warm water are an added comfort. Go ahead and get one…your posterior will thank you later.

I installed this in our master bathroom and we have used it for about a month now. Since my wife often uses flushable wipes, I got this in hopes of eliminating (or at least significantly decreasing) such usage since they can cause plumbing issues (i.e. clogs!). This was super easy to install...took less than 20 minutes.

I installed this in our master bathroom and we have used it for about a month now. Since my wife often uses flushable wipes, I got this in hopes of eliminating (or at least significantly decreasing) such usage since they can cause plumbing issues (i.e. clogs!). This was super easy to install...took less than 20 minutes. It comes with a cord that when plugged in heats the seat and the water, but you can also use it without plugging it in which is what we've been doing since we don't necessarily care about a heated seat and/or water. It has two directions of spray (a slightly forward direction and a rear [no pun intended!] direction). You simply use the dial/switch on the side to turn on the spray (move it forward for the front area and move it backward for the rear). It also has two flow settings (min, max) for each direction...so you can choose to spray a little or a lot depending on the situation. We absolutely LOVE this product!!! I wasn't sure how much I would actually use it when I got it but I think I use it more than my wife at this point! Lol It's just so easy and convenient to use. It's also self cleaning btw so now worries there, and the lids are self closing so no more accidentally "dropping" the toilet seat! I would definitely encourage people to check this product out. It's high quality and works flawlessly...and it will definitely eliminate or at least save on the use of flushable wipes!!! :) Totally worth it. Thinking about actually getting one for my parents since we love it so much.

This is my third 'bidet'. My first one was basically a kitchen sink hand sprayer connected to the toilet. It was great for cleaning the toilet, but awkward as a bidet, and the sprayer was not self cleaning. The second was was like this, but not heated. It worked great, but I have well water, and at 45F, it was a brisk experience (especially in Winter, when the pipes made it colder). This one is by far the best. Easy to install.

This is my third 'bidet'. My first one was basically a kitchen sink hand sprayer connected to the toilet. It was great for cleaning the toilet, but awkward as a bidet, and the sprayer was not self cleaning. The second was was like this, but not heated. It worked great, but I have well water, and at 45F, it was a brisk experience (especially in Winter, when the pipes made it colder). This one is by far the best. Easy to install. Looks great, with a low profile (Height 3.75"); not bulky like some (Height 6.875") or drawing attention to itself with a Captain Kirk control pad. It has a nice sanitary feature. There are Sensors in the seat; when you sit down, it turns On water to self clean the nozzles. It also has innovative mounting plug that acts as a water seal. It is a tight fit, but with a little proding I got it in (see pics).
I had no electrical outlet near the toilet. I had to install an outlet for it to plug in. It is rated at 1000W; which provides it with instant unlimited warm water. Other American Standard's are around 300W; which provides limited warm water (and I assume use power all day long to maintain that reservoir?). I choose to tap into my living room's circuit (adjoining wall). My bathroom was on a single 20A breaker. I have a 1500W space heater, that I turn On when showering. I did not want to overburden the circuit. Now that it is installed, I probably could have added it to my bathroom circuit. It only uses 1000W when the sprayer is active. With only the seat heater On, it cycles ever minute between 1W and 49W. If the Seat heater is turned Off, it uses less than 1W (for the LED Night Light [see pics]). Its natural state is seat heated and water heated On Low. To save power and maximize benefit, I have mine connected to a smart outlet. In Winter, I will leave both On. In Spring and Fall, I will ask Alexa to, "Turn On Bidet", before I plan to use it (seat warms up in about 1 minute). In Summer, I will turn Off the seat heater and leave On the warm Water.
Some bidet's have a dryer, but I do not have the patience to sit around to be air dried; I just use toilet paper.
FWIW ... when I first turned On the water supply, it leaked from underneath. I thought I did not tighten the hose tight enough, or it was defective, but the leak stopped once the air was out of it.
