Brondell Swash 1000 Bidet Toilet Seat

For my second bidet purchase, I thought I’d try another highly rated bidet, but I’m returning it to get a second Brondell 1400. I tried he Bio-Bidet 2000 out of curiosity, but I should have stayed with the Brondell I already loved! It works great and has an intuitive control panel—which is extra important when I rent my house out to guests. The Bio-Bidet’s digital style remote is hard to read.

For my second bidet purchase, I thought I’d try another highly rated bidet, but I’m returning it to get a second Brondell 1400. I tried he Bio-Bidet 2000 out of curiosity, but I should have stayed with the Brondell I already loved! It works great and has an intuitive control panel—which is extra important when I rent my house out to guests. The Bio-Bidet’s digital style remote is hard to read. After a week I still don’t understand how to use it. Forget using it ant night. Also, it has a stream that’s piercing! It was shockingly sharp-feeling. After using the Brondell for so long, I realize I should not have to struggle to read or understand the control panel like I had to with the Bio-Bidet. The Brondell has it all worked out. Things I love: The magnetic control panel for easy return to the wall mount. The water stream options: wider to less so, warmer to cooler, front to back The self-cleaning The fan and deodorizing The soft glow of the night light The fabulous warm seat This is the one!

The original review is below. This is my updated use on the Bidet as of 5/15/21. So this does not get me clean enough in my opinion and all the extra bells and whistles are not appealing as I was expecting. This seat stinks!! It seems like public restroom and I believe it is just the seat and the deodorizer absorbing all the smells. Yuck. We are constantly cleaning the seat to remove the smell but once the family starts using it again it returns. Not only that it's... Read More

The original review is below. This is my updated use on the Bidet as of 5/15/21. So this does not get me clean enough in my opinion and all the extra bells and whistles are not appealing as I was expecting. This seat stinks!! It seems like public restroom and I believe it is just the seat and the deodorizer absorbing all the smells. Yuck. We are constantly cleaning the seat to remove the smell but once the family starts using it again it returns. Not only that it's also the smell of the plastic that makes it bad. So if this was 300 dollars cheaper and sold towards really small individuals it would be good. Because my children fit perfectly and can clean themselves in while on the bidet without having to spread their cheeks and shimmy your butt around. I really wish I could get the water pressure stronger. The spray that is coming out just doesnt cut it. The position should be able to be saved under users. It doesn't spray my fiancee or myself in the proper area dead on. This should be a design priority because different sized people exist. The temperature still works properly, it does have a off moment where the temp will get really hot or really cold for a split second in the middle of the spraying cycle. And the seat tempature has been consistent. I really don't use the deodorizer it should just be removed from the bidet all together. As I stated above, constantly cleaning the seat anyway. The dryer is still subpar, maybe with the deodorizer gone they can install a larger stronger blow dryer. Original review Installing is simple just use pliers. I find it strange that from the cheapest attachments to the most expensive seats, people often complain that the water can't hit them right. I'm 6'4, my fiancee is 5'7 and we both need the sprayer pushed all the way forward. We both adjust ourselves during the cleaning process. I don't like the posture the seat puts me in. I also think the water pressure could be stronger, I felt it with my fingers and it's a real lack luster spray. I'm used to showering after no 2s. When I went through one cycle and wiped after I still had doo doo flurries and juice. Because of that I have started to use the cleaning setting twice, once with soap and water. The dryer function is subpar as well. You might as well sit back and read until your butt is dry and that's IF it dries all the spots. All and all I'm on the toliet for about 15 minutes now. Just not worth the price tag. Final verdict: if you dont see improvements in the newer models that point out the flaws of this model review dont buy it. Get a older model, don't waste your time or money. And there are similar complaints on other reviews for other models as well. All the companies need to take into consideration of a bigger sample of heightxweight individuals. Water pressure should be stronger so you can actually clean your butt. The deodorizer is pointless. The seat stinks after multiple uses making you constantly clean your bathroom. And nozzle position should be able to be saved under user settings. I originally had this at 3 stars but I'm dropping it to 1. Read Less

I'm pretty passionate about this product so be ready for a rather long review. First off, I bought my first Brondell bidet about a year ago. I had been interested in getting a bidet for quite a while and, despite some skepticism from my family ( eww, water squirting on your butt! ), pulled the trigger and bought the Brondell Swash 1400 with the round bowl in December of 2018. Bottom line, we loved it, and I mean we ALL loved it. My families skepticism soon turned to praise as the discovered... Read More

I'm pretty passionate about this product so be ready for a rather long review. First off, I bought my first Brondell bidet about a year ago. I had been interested in getting a bidet for quite a while and, despite some skepticism from my family ( eww, water squirting on your butt! ), pulled the trigger and bought the Brondell Swash 1400 with the round bowl in December of 2018. Bottom line, we loved it, and I mean we ALL loved it. My families skepticism soon turned to praise as the discovered the wonders of having a bidet and a truly clean bottom. Installation was a breeze. The only difficult part was installing an outlet next to the toilet installing the actual bidet only took minutes. The included instructions did an excellent job walking you through the process. The only hitch, and I can't pin this on Brondell, was that the bidet did not fit quite right on the toilet. The front of the seat hung over the edge of the toilet about an inch. If you look at the pictures I uploaded you can see what I am talking about. It wasn't a problem for my wife but for me things could get a little crowded up front. It was tolerable so we just left things as they were. I was impressed with the durability of the Brondell bidet. This is a device that gets used multiple times a day every day of the week. We have had zero problems for over a year. The only problem that did arise was my wife getting ticked off that the kids kept using the toilet in our master bath so they could use the bidet! Well, we solved the problem by purchasing a second Brondell Swash 1400. This time with the extended seat. We took our time measuring dimensions on the toilet we were going to be replacing our old toilet with to make sure the Brondell bidet would fit properly. It was a success. The seat fits great on the new toilet, looks great, and I really appreciate the extra room up front. We replaced our downstairs toilet at the same time and did the same job of making sure we would have sufficient room between the seat attachment points and the tank so the bidet could sit back far enough to maximize the room up front. I have attached pictures of the toilets we ended up buying. You can see in the pictures with the wood grain flooring the difference the new toilet made with how the seat fits. Part of what makes the Brondell such a great bidet are the variety of controls that the remote gives you along with the two user customizable presets. It's great to be able to just push a couple of buttons and the seat temperature, spray pressure, spray width, and oscillation settings just the way I like them. My wife thought the night light was too bright and I didn't like chimes when you sat down which is why the ability to customize settings is so wonderful. We turned off the chimes and the night light and now both my wife and I are happy. To sum things up, I don't think you can go wrong buying the Brondell Swash 1400. I did quite a bit of research before buying and the specs and features of this unit along with the many testimonials I read convinced me that this was the bidet for me. My parents were so impressed when they visited and used the Brondell bidet that they made the decision to buy on for their house as well. Do yourself a favor and pick one of these babies up today, trust me you will be glad that you did! Read Less
