Side by Side Comparison of: SmarterFresh vs GenieBidet

A fabulous item so sleek looking, this is my fourth order. Everyone who visits me just wants one that is the only reason for the multiple purchases.
You can purchase separate parts if you don't want to hook this to your toilet and wish to hook it to the sink. The seller is very nice helpful and responsive really speedy responses to resolve any issues. Excellent customer service.
There's a how to video on youtube if you're hesitant
these bidets are like iPhones, sometimes I wonder how people get along without them?
I have the two types of bidets installed but this one is my favorite.

My wife asked me if I would consider a bidet as a Christmas gift. "Sure", I said. Well, she had already done some research and recommended this hand held model made by SmarterFresh. We have two bathrooms, so we ordered two. When they arrived, I decided to try the installation myself, which was amazingly easy, it turned out. It took about 5 minutes for each unit. Using the bidet takes a bit of practice with aiming and pressure adjustment, but once the learning curve is over, this thing works great. The instructions recommend turning the T-valve off after use to prevent possible leakage, and this process is my only small annoyance, but turning the valve on and off is very easy and is just a habit that we'll have to get used to. The construction and materials are of very high quality. Now, we just spray clean and pat dry with a bit of toilet paper. A life changing event, as all Christmases should be!

Let me preface this review by saying that after I got this, a proctologist complimented me on the cleanliness of my rear end. This review might be a bit wordy but I talk about all the details of owning one of these.

Like many Americans, I had taken my bathroom habits for granted. You sit, you do your business, you wipe and move merrily on your way. The more discerning among us might use baby wipes instead for greater comfort. I scoffed at the notion of a bidet. Then I got curious after I saw one when I was working inside someone's apartment and saw it firsthand.

A man who had travelled abroad to Southeast Asia sold me on it after vividly describing sensations of cleanliness heretofore unknown. After glancing at some cheaper, plastic models, I settled on this one. Experience has taught me that plastic can pick up smells despite the best of efforts.

Installation is a breeze, if you read the directions. There's a little assembly that connects to the bottom of a toilet tank, using the standardized connector found there. Your old hose connects to that. Hence, this will not work well with rigid (fixed) connections between the toilet supply valve and the tank.

The clip to hold the sprayer goes under the lid of your toilet tank. Now, in order to power our new friend we've got to turn the valve that we just installed on the underside of the tank from facing the floor to somewhere upward of that. This is your fine-grained control over the pressure coming out. I found nothing very objectionable about full pressure, but I could see why a person might want less.

IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE that the manufacturer leaves explicit instructions to turn off this valve whenever you're done using the toilet. The reason is that this assembly is not built to withstand pressure for any great length of time. It took a couple days of me forgetting, but I found a slow leak had developed. I remember reading this in the directions, so no points off from the sprayer.

Actually using the sprayer takes a little more getting used to. It wouldn't have killed them to include some pictures in their manual, but I suppose graphic imagery would have offended someone. I'm explaining for you because nobody did for me. You've got to make sure that the water jet is as close to perpendicular relative to your 'dark flower'. If you do this, the splash will end up nicely in the bowl. If you try to avoid putting your hands into the bowl, you'll achieve maybe one third to two fifths of a radian (30-72 degrees).

Imagine with me here. We're spraying some stuff we don't particularly enjoy off of ourselves. If it doesn't go into the bowl, and we're clogging the top, where could it go? Underneath the seat and away, friends. You'll be wiping down the area around your toilet, and that's no fun. So thusly equipped with some advice, you settle in for your first blast. I say blast, because at lower power settings you will need to still use toilet paper.

An easy back and forth and you're done. Keep a towel nearby for dabbing dry. Use toilet paper until you get it right, but then you can just throw the towel in the wash every few days. I've had mine for months and haven't looked back. It's a glorious thing. Get one today.

Considering the humble purpose of this product, it seems odd to say I love it -- but I really kinda do. For one, it does what it is supposed to do extremely well. It is light and compact, making it easy to point and maneuver, and the lever doesn't require a lot of hand strength. The water stream is comfortable but cleans very thoroughly. I was introduced to hand sprayers for toilet use while living in Sri Lanka. It was impossible to go back to toilet paper when I returned to the US, so I installed one sold by a different manufacturer. It worked fine for several years, till the innards eventually corroded. Between that unit and the variety of versions in Sri Lanka, I have a lot of experience with these. This one has given by far the best user experience. It is also the best looking, as the brushed stainless finish is more attractive than chrome or plastic. The plumbing fixtures seem very well made, and installation was fast and easy. My toilet already had a flexible feed line, and I am (so far) using the old unit's mounting bracket, so I didn't need any tools -- not even a pair of pliers. If you are in the market for a hand bidet, I strongly recommend this. If you aren't, well give one a try, and you will never go back to toilet paper.

Excellent value for money and easy installation. We are very pleased with this product! At first I was concerned because there is no temperature adjustment, but that's not be a problem at all.

Looked at the Luxe bidet but after seeing an install video that showed the nozzle hanging quite far below the rim of the toilet which concerned me because of possibility of becoming easily soiled, I decided to go with this model. Install was easy. Used teflon tape and Aquaus Toilet Adapter/T-Adapter as other reviewers recommended. Unfortunately I ovetightened plastic coupling connecting to seat and it snapped (do not need to tighten that much!). I got on phone with support on a Monday night around 8pm, got a live person immediately who knew exactly what I had done wrong. He sent me the replacement hose, no questions asked, no extra charge even though the fault was all mine. Excellent service! The bidet itself is discreet. No one knows its a bidet until I show 'em. The seat does make the opening smaller which is a bit less comfortable than my previous seat but a small price to pay for the convenience of the bidet. Water is cold and so limits how long you can use device. But very much appreciate the difference in cleaning this offers.

This is my initial review of the Ellegantz GenieBidet seat. I have had the GenieBidet for one day. This review will talk about my impressions of the GenieBidet seat, and also contrast it with the Luxe Bidet Neo 110, which I returned.Why I returned the Luxe Bidet Neo 110 and ordered the GenieBidet:First, I will talk about the Luxe Neo 110 which I tried before ordering the GenieBidet. I ordered the Neo 110 after reading the thousands of excellent reviews. The Neo 110, is an under-the-seat add-on bidet that is installed underneath the rear of your current toilet seat. In the short time I had the Neo 110, it appeared to be a quality product. It was made of durable plastic, had excellent water pressure, a metal braided hose, and worked as intended. I was very happy with it after I first installed it. I then realized the inherent problem with the under-the-seat design, and this was enough for me to return it and try the GenieBidet.The problem with the Luxe Neo 110 design, is that it raises the back of your current toilet seat up, causing the seat to slope downward from back to front. This created a situation where the front of my toilet seat was the only part contacting the toilet bowl, and created a fairly significant gap between the middle of my seat and the underlying bowl. Sitting on my plastic seat would forcefully close this gap by flexing the seat in the middle until this gap was closed. Removing weight from the seat would cause it to flex back into the suspended position. Most of the flexing occurred in the middle, because the front of the seat was always contacting the bowl, and the rear of the seat was attached to the Neo 110 frame. Because of this, I worried the seat would eventually break from these repeated stress cycles. In an effort to correct this issue, I bought rubber toilet bumpers and attached them to the middle of the seat, to fill the gap. This was a partially successful solution, however the bumpers kept falling off, didn't fill the entire gap, and just felt like a very imperfect solution. To address the issue of the bumpers falling off, I considered sanding the bottom of the toilet seat and using epoxy to permanently attach the bumpers, but I eventually gave up and started looking for alternatives. Although the Neo 110 appeared to be a quality product, I just couldn't accept the seat-gap issues, and decided to try the GenieBidet. I would like to see Luxe offer a complete bidet seat design similar to the GenieBidet.Now that you've read about my experience with an under-the-seat add-on bidet, I will talk about my experience with the GenieBidet Seat. I finished installing it a day ago, so these are my initial observations. I will amend my review later if warranted.Ellegantz GenieBidet Seat:Installation:The installation of the GenieBidet took me about 45 minutes. I did need to read the instructions. Step one of the instructions makes reference to attaching rubber pieces, but I think they come already attached. I installed it using the "second method" which uses screws on top of the toilet and nuts on the bottom of the toilet to attach what the instructions refer to as the plastic "adapter plate." The adapter plate is the docking station that the seat locks into. There are expansion nuts included which are identified as the "recommended method" of install in the instructions, but I'm not sure if or why using the expansion nuts is better? Anyway, when I screwed down the GenieBidet adapter plate, I was careful to not over-tighten the bolts, as I'm sure it would have been possible to break the plastic adapter plate with enough force.Attaching the water hose is easy, and it runs from the GenieBidet to an included plastic T-adapter that attaches to the toilet tank fill line. Make sure you use all of the rubber gaskets, or it will leak. The rubber gasket fell out of the bidet side of my hose during shipping. I found it in the bag. I am not currently having any leaks. Also, for good measure, I replaced the old gasket in my fill line with a new one from the hardware store, as my old gasket was deteriorating and I didn't want pieces of it to clog my new bidet. Hopefully the included water screen on the GenieBidet inlet hose would have prevented this though.GenieBidet Seat Quality:This product, because it is an entire seat replacement, eliminates the seat slope issue I had with the Neo 110 (described above). There is a very small gap between the rear built in seat bumper of my GenieBidet and my toilet bowl, which I wish wasn't there, as the GenieBidet seat does in fact flex very slightly to close this gap, but let me be clear, this is nothing close to what I described on the Neo 110 above, and I don't think this will cause product failure or seat fracture. I think this "issue" could be corrected by Ellegantz if they made the rear seat bumper slightly longer, but I'm not sure. This small gap is no reason to avoid this product, and I would have never noticed it had I not previously dealt with the seat slope issues on the Luxe Neo 110.The seat quality itself seems pretty good, and it is surprisingly comfortable, more so than my old cheapo toilet seat. One thing that concerned me before ordering were the reviews that mentioned the seat being slightly too short in the front and leaving a small gap on the front of the toilet. There are photos of this in some of the other reviews. I guess I have this "issue" but let me say if it is too short, it is only by about 1/4 inch (6.35 mm). This does not bother me at all, and I would have never noticed it had I not read about it in the other reviews. It does not appear to create any functional or seat support problems and is not an issue for me. Nobody else would ever notice it.Aesthetics:The GenieBidet looks very nice. It also looks conservative, and doesn't shout bidet. The control lever on the right side is small and reminds me of a second flushing handle. In contrast, the Luxe Neo 110 (different product) is definitely not discreet, having a big control panel protruding from the toilet (which could be bumped). That being said, the control panel on the Neo 110 didn't bother me personally.Sprayer Function:So far I am pleased with the GenieBidet's sprayer functions. I did need to increase the water pressure by adjusting the pressure regulator (read your instructions). The GenieBidet, after adjustment still has less maximum pressure than the Neo 110, but this may actually be a good thing, as the water pressure on the GenieBidet is plenty adequate, and the Neo 110 is probably too much pressure for a lot of people on high. Without taking scientific measurements, I'd subjectively say the Genie on high is similar to the Neo 110 on "low" (still quite a bit). The Genie Bidet also has a second sprayer for the the front that the Neo 110 does not have. I have on good authority that this second sprayer makes a big difference and is a must have feature.Sprayer Location:Both sprayers on the GenieBidet are located just below the back of the seat where they are well elevated from the toilet bowl water. The Neo 110 sprayer sits lower in the toilet bowl, closer to the toilet water (but not in it). I'm not sure if this makes any real world difference, but I like that the sprayers on the GenieBidet are farther from the toilet bowl water.Why you don't want hot water on your bidet:The GenieBidet is cold water only. I was originally concerned about a cold water bidet, but after reading countless reviews, I felt it was the better option. It doesn't feel cold, and the fact that it doesn't require a hot water line (or an electric heater), makes it much simpler to install. If considering a hot water line option, you need to consider how long hot water takes to reach your faucet. Also, consider the potential dangers that hot water can present.Why you don't want electric on your bidet:I've never owned one of the thousand dollar electric bidets, but the idea of having electric motors, electric heater(s), an integrated circuit board, and a wireless remote control seems unnecessary to me.Economics:I originally started looking for a bidet because I got tired of spending so much money on toilet paper. Quality toilet paper is quite expensive. Assuming the GenieBidet lasts, it will pay for itself pretty quick in toilet paper savings. If it saves me a dollar a day in toilet paper, that will be a $365.00 return in one year. The ROI (return on investment) is potentially huge. The more household members you have, the greater your potential ROI will be.Environment:Bidets are great for the environment. Don't worry about the water use, manufacturing toilet paper uses more. Manufacturing toilet paper also consumes wood, chemicals, energy, and the petroleum involved in transport. Flushed toilet paper also goes to the waste water treatment plant (or septic tank).Cleanliness:You will never get this clean with toilet paper.Recommendations to Ellegantz:1. Look into the small seat gap issue I mentioned2. Maybe make the seat a tad longer for those that care (as long as this doesn't hurt compatibility)3. The locking latch that is controlled by the seat release button is plastic and somewhat small, I would like to see something more substantial used, but I'll know more about its durability as time passes. If this little latch breaks, the product is useless. I personally would prefer a seat that doesn't detach at all. I know the detachable seat is a cleaning feature (and it works), but I'd personally prefer if there was an option for a seat that permanently bolted to the toilet without using the risky plastic locking latch.4. I would also like to see a "luxury" model with a) metal braided water house b) metal T-connector c) brass water connector on the seat, instead of plastic d) metal control handleSummary:I am giving the GenieBidet the full five stars. I will know more about its long term durability in the months, hopefully years to come. I am concerned that the seat mounting system may be the product's future point of failure, but it is working great so far. I personally want the option for a super heavy duty permanently mounted seat that doesn't detach. If I encounter any issues with my mount breaking, I will update my review, and I hope my concerns are unfounded.Finally, I will never buy an under-the-seat add-on (Luxe Neo 110) again. I do believe the Luxe Neo 110 is a quality product for what it is, but I'm very happy to have eliminated the inherent problems of the under-the-seat design by going to a full seat replacement (GenieBidet). I would like to see more companies produce an affordable cold water, non-electric, full seat replacement similar to the GenieBidet. Are you listening Luxe?---------------------------------One Year Update:I have now had the GenieBidet Seat an entire year. As promised, I will update my initial thoughts. Let me start by saying that this is one of the absolute best things I have EVER purchased. It is definitely worth the $80.00 they are currently charging for it, and I think that is a fair price.Quality-1yr: The quality is very good for the price. It still feels sturdy, and I have not had a single issue with it during my year of ownership. I believe the synthetic water hose and plastic t-connector have proven themselves, and now wonder if the "metal braided hose and metal t-connector" offered by other brands are actually of any benefit to the buyer, or are simply marketing hype. Regardless, I have had no leaks and no problems of any kind from the product, and no longer feel a "luxury model" is desirable. In my earlier review, I also said that I wanted a non-detachable seat, because I was worried that the small plastic "mounting hook" that locks the seat to the base might break. This still worries me a little bit, and I am careful to not stress the hook. However, I have not had any problems with it breaking over the last year, and I will admit being able to detach the seat is in fact extremely helpful for cleaning (which is why they designed it this way). I have also not had any problems with the sprayers deploying from their retracted position, which is something I thought might happen after repeated cycling. Overall, for the price, I give this a quality rating of 5/5. I would still like the mounting hook to be beefed up, but unless there are people having hook failure, I don't guess it's a problem, because it hasn't failed me after a year. As long as the product continues to last several more years without breaking, I will consider it a very reasonable quality to price compromise. Finally, the very minor "seat gap" on this product does not bother me at all or cause me any problems, and I didn't expect it to. It simply isn't a problem like it is on the "under seat" attachments from other manufactures.Economics-1yr: The GenieBidet has substantially reduced toilet paper use. I estimate a 90% reduction, and this has saved me a lot of money, plus been beneficial to the environment. Although I have not kept track of the numbers, I would not be surprised if I have saved more money on toiler paper over the last year than the GenieBidet cost, giving me a positive ROI (return on investment). I also no longer buy the expensive premium toilet paper, and I instead buy the cheapest paper I can find. After a year, I do genuinely consider this product to have been a legitimate and profitable "investment."Thoughts on non-electric-1yr:I did not find the cold water to be a real problem, even on the coldest of winter days. I don't have to worry about electric motor failure, wireless remote failure, heater coil failure, computer failure, or any other such thing. The GenieBidet also worked fine during a power outage, as it should, since it uses no power at all.Closing Remarks-1yr.Again, this is one of the best products that I have ever bought. I believe it has also been unique in that I have not found similar products in this price range sold by other companies. I really want to see other companies also offer products like this, because it would drive the market and ultimately benefit the consumer. This is something that every household should have, and after owning one for a year, I don't understand why the adoption rate is so low in my part of the world. If you are torn between the GenieBidet and an "under-seat attachment" like the Luxe Bidet Neo 110, I believe you will be much happier with the GenieBidet. I know I am.PS: Don't buy the rubber bumpers that Amazon is suggesting you purchase with the GenieBidet Seat. They are not needed for whole seat replacements like GenieBidet.

Just installed the GenieBidet seat after having another bidet from another company for many years. Loved the old model, but it looked like you were going to sit on a seat that would beam you to the moon, so was looking for something more discreet. This one is that for sure. The elongated seat worked on my elongated toilet. There is a little elevation in the back of the seat so you adjust your bottom a bit to "fit", but no problem.Love the fact that you can take the seat off for cleaning because our old one was very hard to keep clean with many grooves and areas where bacteria could just sit and fester. We would have to unscrew the old one to give it a cleaning which happened often, but was not ideal in any way. This seat slides out well for easy cleaning, plus the area that constantly got dirty where the seat attaches to the bowl, is completely covered now.They said 2 rubber gaskets come with it to attach to plate that goes on seat, but we didn't have them with our packaging.There were 4 rubber small pads already on the plate that seems to be fine and I guess I'll find as I use it more if the gaskets were necessary.We don't have low pressure, but our old model had amazing pressure and this one is more gentle, so we ended up taking the water regulator off. (Pg 6)So far so good. I think I'm going to go ahead and get another one for our other bathroom since it really is so discreet and can't imagine anyone feeling uncomfortable using it.

I was a couple of concerns before purchasing this bidet-style toilet seat. First, I was skeptical that it would actually work without being messy or gross. Second, I was doubtful of my own ability to install it without there being leaks everywhere. I installed it a week ago, and so far, there are no leaks. The little spray jets work as intended, and I am happy with the purchase. Here are some notes on the device itself:There are two spray jets. The product description led me to believe that one would aim toward one's posterior, and one would aim toward a lady's area. As far as I can tell, both jets aim at the exact same place. However, one jet is a more gentle spray, and the other is a stronger, more focused spray. I am new to this type of product, so it may be that I have simply misunderstood something. In any case, the spray pressure is strong enough to assist with cleaning, but not strong enough to be uncomfortable.The seat and the lid are a bit strange. The lid is of the newer "slow close" type. I have never had a toilet seat with this feature before. It definitely works as intended, but it takes some getting used to. The seat seems a little small to me. By "small", I mean it is slightly smaller (length and width) than the toilet seat it replaced, and the hole in the middle of the seat seems a bit smaller. Even so, it fits the toilet on which it is installed, and it's not uncomfortable. I just wish the seat were a smidge wider and longer.It might sound like I am criticizing the bidet seat, but I am not. I am just trying to describe it as accurately as I can. Overall, I am pleased with the purchase, and I am pleasantly surprised that it was so easy to install and that it works so well.One final note: I had to replace the original water line from our floor to our toilet, because our previous water line was of a rigid type (solid tubing, not bendy). Getting the right length to replace it was a little tricky. I wound up needing to get a longer piece than I thought I needed, because it needed to be long enough to loop around and not have any stress on the fittings or kinks in the water line. I just wanted to mention that in case someone else runs into the same issue.Summary: it works well, and I am glad I bought it.

Just finished installing it. It was very easy to install 20 minutes max with reading the instructions (step by step instructions with diagrams). Looks great, tested well...seems like it will do the job. Will add additional comments after a few days of us.

Our family long ago embraced the superior hygiene and convenience offered by toilet seat bidets and have installed units in each of our three bathrooms. However, all units shared two rather substantial flaws:1) poor cleanability: these bidets are installed between the toilet stool and seat, accumulating all sorts of dirt over time. To clean, the units must be completely uninstalled, a time consuming chore we rarely had the patience for.2) aesthetics: the spray nozzle and pressure controls are in plain sight for everyone to see.The Genie Bidet solves both issues handily. The unit easily snaps on and off of the toilet stool with a simple button click, making cleaning a breeze. The nozzle retracts into the bidet and out of sight when not in use and the water pressure controls are cleverly built into the seat and barely noticeable. In fact, upon casual examination, the Genie Bidet looks exactly like a standard toilet seat.I deducted one star due to underwhelming water pressure. My old unit had more "pep" in that department. Still, a great product overallUpdate: on the advice of customer support, I removed the pressure regulator unit. This resulted in a substantial increase in water pressure, so I'm amending my rating to a full 5 stars.

This ass blaster is fabulous! It is very easy to hook up and use. My only complaint is that the turnoff lever is down under the bowl so it's a pain to reach. I bought an adapter with an on/off lever for $8 and screwed it onto the handle portion. Works great! Warning- The water does come out like a geyser if you open the valve completely. Try it in the toilet first, unless you desire a high colonic. Which is fine, no judgment there. ;P

A bit pricy, but build quality is premium. Instructions were clear and installation was easy.

One year later: After using it for over a year the hose suddenly developed a leak slightly below where it connects to the sprayer. The sprayer and T-joint themselves are fine. SmarterFresh sells replacement T-Joints and sprayers but not the hose. I can't find a replacement hose for this. Buying a completely new bidet is too costly IMO.

Edit: What a great customer service experience. I reached out to smarterfresh through their storefront website with my issue and the owner himself replied back. He sent me a replacement hose free of charge. Now the bidet is like brand new! 10 out of 10 for experience and customer service.

its pretty powerful! there a level to adjust the powerful part which is a big plus. the level also can be turn to the off position. which is nice!

the handle part is smaller then what i expected.

my only gripe was the shipping. they give about a two week time frame for it to arrive. and i have Prime, which doesn't seem to make a difference for people living in Alaska. i sat there and waited and waited until the company decided to put this in the mail. they waited until the last possible moment, and i ran out of time waiting for it. i had to fly out, so this item sat at the post office for two months. by the time i got home, and had my handyman put it together, it was past the time of return.

its a good thing, its nice quality, because i'm now stuck with it. :-)

the handle is smaller then what i would of preferred. but. its liveable.

This is a nice product, but there are better designs out there like the Aquaus 360. There are a couple of screws required for the mount which slowed down the assembly. With hand tightening the nuts there were still some leaks, so I had to use a channel lock to tighten the fittings. Also once we try to take the head off the mount it sticks a little bit. We are mounting on the tank itself. It's just little things, but still...We have had it for two weeks now and it's working okay.

Great product! Wife and I bought this to use in conjunction with cloth diapering our son. We use bamboo sheets to catch most of his solid waste but sometimes it gets crazy and you need to spray off the diaper and cover. This works much better than the kitchen sink. 😜 And the pressure and spray is sufficient enough to get the job done.Love that is has an all metal construction. Makes it feel more sturdy and that it will last longer. Oddly there was only one plastic part. The little knob that holds the sprayer to the wall or to the toilet. Not bad tho. Isn't a critical component to the product working.The only reason I left a 4 star instead of a 5 is I had to go buy an additional part. My existing hose that lead to the toilet had a longer threading than the adapter that came with the product. I couldn't tighten it as much as I needed to in order to prevent leaking. Luckily I was able to find a hose with a slightly shorter threading to get the job done but I wouldn't be surprised if more people have this issue. Almost all the hose threadings in the hardware store where too long. I feel lucky that I found one that worked. Keep an eye out for that when purchasing!

I have been using the bidet for several days and like it. This is the first bidet I have used in U.S. --first experience was in France--the full sized version. The product arrived promptly--well packed, and I believe well thought out and engineered. The metal T valve seems to be of very good quality. I had no problems installing the bidet. Some thoughts that might help you decide:1. READ THE INSTRUCTIONS--they are well written and quite good. I am a "handy man type", but feel anyone should be able to install if you are able to use a screw driver and pliers. I used method #2. One insert from #1 method would not fit my toilet. Toilet fault--not companies.2. Check that all parts are present--I unpacked mine over the kitchen table to make sure all parts were included. I received a couple of emails from the company concerning installation and if I ordered the correct bidet--in my case for elongated toilet. Company must have a miserable time with misorders.3. Works well, and the pressure seems fine with the installed regulator.4. The entire unit is plastic. The lid is probably the thinnest part--sit but don't stand. Seat seems sturdy and sits well on my toilet. Size of the opening is smaller than an elongated wood seat I had previously, but does not bother me. I'm 69 and 230 Lbs. (104.5454545454545454545454545454545454545454545454545454545454545 kg for everyone else in the world)) Seat does not slide around or flex.5. Was considering an electric bidet, but at $400 seemed a bit much to invest on something I might dislike. Thought I would try this first. Upon researching the more expensive options I decided that many of the functions of the more expensive bidets were not efficient EXCEPT the warm water.6. My main concern (other than the bidet working correctly) was the "cold" flush. I live in South Carolina and we do have some cold weather--but not near the level you northern types have. The water in the inside pipes is warmed by the inside temperature. The "cool" flush is fine. If the toilet is used more often where the water doesn't have a chance to warm somewhat than you snowbirds would probably receive a very unwelcome surprise. You probably could stand it for the short time needed, but I think I would purchase the electric heated bidet.Update (1/28/17) I was missing a small washer which I replaced with a washer from Home depot. The washer had to be customized since would not fit correctly in the part, but it worked. Contacted dealer and they told me where the washer should have been--that is why I knew it was missing--had checked earlier when unpacking on the kitchen table. They replaced the washer with the entire assembly of the supply tubing and washers. Complete overkill. Also sent priority mail. Really great product and dealer. Do not hesitate to purchase.

As a former Toto Washlet user now living in an apartment (without an electric outlet near the commode), I'd often wondered if there was some sort of alternative that didn't require electricity. After a lot of Google searching, I decided to try the GenieBidet Seat. It had lots of good reviews, was relatively inexpensive and since features like a heated seat and blow dryer weren't important to me, I gave it a try. I have to say that after 4 days I'm delighted with the unit. Installation was easy after a couple of purchases (a flex line to replace the "hard" water inlet line and two 5" SS carriage bolts since my GenieBidet sits on a 3 1/2" riser). Not having heated wash water isn't an issue, although I do live in the South. It's job is to wash and it works. We'll see how durable it turns out to be and not being able to judge that aspect is the only reason I gave it 4 stars. In terms of function only, I'd give it 5 stars.

It is a very good thing. I like how it works, and appreciate what it does. I learned about using a bidet when I got one for another toilet. It is an add-on, and the seat doesn't rest on the bowl the way it should. So I went for a one-piece bidet seat. This one closes properly, and has soft close feature. (I always try slamming the lid down, and watch it slowly sink down to close silently. I'm easily amused.) As others have commented, the top lid doesn't stay up easily, or at all if the seat is adjusted to fit the bowl, and the tank is too close. Luckily for me, the design of my toilet allows the top lid to lean back just enough to stay up. I read that some people take the top lid off due to this. That wouldn't be good. Another possible con is that the thing is a bit clunky and partially covers the bowl. Stuff can get underneath as well. However, there's a button on the side that allows you to easily slide the lid off and on for cleaning. The mechanism for attaching the bidet to the toilet is a bit different, and takes a little adjusting, but I found it quite easy to install, and holds the lid firmly in place.

Very very nice looking seat. The name is appropriate. I have had many bolt on bidet seats and this one looks so much nicer than all the others.It is a bit pricey compared to the others but it is also less expensive than some of the alternatives as well. There was a lot of thought that went into this unit. The soft grippy rubber feet is a very nice touch which prevents side to side motion on the seat covers. Many seat makers do not even have rubber at all. The hose routing is beautiful with the elbow and the good quality nut does not mar when you apply a wrench to it. There is a lot of protection on all the parts to prevent damage during shipping. Well done! For me the compression nuts kept popping out so I had to use the regular nuts to fasten the seat. This was fine for me. Keep in mind that the seat is a bit thicker on the rear side and tapers towards the front of thetoilet. Because of this the user may sit on a slight angle and be further forward than on a conventional seat. My house pressure is 62 psi. The documentation stated that the spray pressure may be low if your house psi is 10 psi. I have never heard of 10psi in a house as that is extremely low so this may be a typo. For me the spray pressure was very low so I followed the directions and removed the limiter. Now the pressure is much better. I have only had the unit for about a week and so far I like it. I have an elongated toilet and the opening of the seat seems quite a bit smaller than a conventional seat. If you have a round shorter seat I would think it would be too small but I have not tried the shorter model. I would fit one in every bathroom except for the cost. I gave it a 4 star instead of 5 only due to the price. If it was lets say $65 I would give it a 5 and buy one for every bathroom.

Very easy to install, and works perfectly. One of the best parts is that there is NO problem with fitting. I bought a cheaper (seemingly) BioBidet underseat bidet. It didn't fit with my existing wood toilet seat. I then bought a Bemis plastic seat, since the Amazon community advised that plastic seats fit the separate bidet. This one doesn't. The seat tilts, and the back bumpers don't touch the toilet bowl. Save yourself a LOT of time, trouble and expense and buy the integrated seat plus bidet. Only downside: I bought a new braided stainless steel supply line to connect the water supply. Fluid master advises to use a new one if the old one is more than five years old. The supplied tubing that carries water from the "T" connector to the bidet is plastic. Hopefully it will last. The supplied "T" connector is only plastic, so I bought a Luxe metal T adapter. It's pretty, sturdy, and offers a bonus ability to regulate the pressure of the water going to the bidet.The two nozzles are properly aligned to deliver water to the selected areas.Installation, start to finish, was only about 20 minutes, and I'm no plumber.

Exceeded my expectations! Having moved to a different house two years ago...leaving behind a Biffy bidet attachment...I had been looking for a new bidet attachment. The GenieBidet is an excellent upgrade for a few reasons. One, the water spray comes from behind and beneath the seat (no 'wand' to get dirty and need cleaning). Two, there are two distinct sprayers...one aimed at rectal cleaning and the other cleansing feminine parts (as a female I appreciate both streams). Three, there is no lever handle protruding from the side (lever is fairly flush...no pun intended...with the seat). Four, because the unit is an entire seat, it looks elegant. The seat itself has a 'slow closing' seat and lid which is nice, however my ONLY complaint would be the seat is plastic and not as heave duty as the more solid seat it replaced and the connection T is also plastic. Installation was fairly easy, but I had previously installed a Biffy and have replaced toilet seats in the past.I had some leaking occurring at installation but got immediate, polite, effective help via a phone call (from an understandable English speaker!!). Also appreciated (but not needed by myself) was an email immediately following my order warning me the seat was for an ELONGATED toilet seat.Because we have a cabin, I am going to order another GenieBidet Seat!

Installation day: it wouldn't stop leaking from the connection of the hose to the sprayer. Applied a lot of Teflon Tape trying to solve the problem, but there was no way to stop it from leaking. Put it back on the box to return it next business day. Thinking of buying straight from Home Depot.Update. Company contacted me right away to solve the problem and sent a replacement. I will be posting my second experience with the Bidet once I receive it and install it. I did give them a second chance because the Bidet looks pretty

Eventually leaked (full stream), my fault entirely for forgetting to close the valve. Result: It ran for 3 hours and I came home to swamp in my house. Need to figure out today if it's an O-Ring failure or if I need to order another one. Note, the failure is in the head, the valve has been holding strong for a long time. So, keep in mind if you buy this, the head will fail under constant pressure. No "if" about it.

Beware if you have a one piece toilet. You may not be able to install this depending on what your set up is. If installed the way it says in the instructions the turn on/off switch would have to be inside the toilet base. It would be about impossible to do this while using the toilet and very inconvenient.

I just installed the product and it works okay so far. One drawback is that the screws provided with the holder donot fit the holder and are much larger than the holes on the holder.

Works OK. That's about it. If you are on a budget, it's just fine. However the potty mount is inconvenient and flimsy, as opposed to the wall mounts I used in other countries.We are late in coming to Bidets, as we are on so many other products, and hence tend to buy cheap, cheap, cheap. Want real quality? Spend more, as I will do for a Bidet in my other bathroom.

Great, quality product with a simple 5 minute installation. From a form and function standpoint, this one wins the best-in-class award. Everything from the adjustable pressure to the sleek appearance and quality of its construction seems top notch.THAT SAID... read the fine print closely. At the end of the instructions (the section that most people will disregard or skim over) is some critically important fine print.It states that you must reach under the toilet and turn off the water source to the bidet EVERY TIME that you use it. Failure to do so will cause the bidet's hardware to prematurely fail and FLOOD YOUR HOUSE--releasing the manufacturer from liability.Now I gotta ask... who really wants to fiddle with the supply switch to the bidet every time they use it--both before and after. In my opinion, if the hardware requires constant toggling of the supply, then the hardware should be improved such that this is a non-issue. It is truly an inconvenience. If you are a guest that is using this thing, it becomes less than intuitive to operate.This is a significant flaw that would otherwise make this a 5 star product.

I've had a Luxe Neo 120 Bidet before that worked great. The fiance said I can't have that one in the new house as it looked funny. So I opted for this one since it looks more "normal."The installation was easy enough but just in the first two days the bidet would move - usually towards the back towards the tank. It didn't matter how tight I installed it or what hardware I used, it was always loose.Second issue was that the design was weird. While I had oval toilet bowl, the bidet hung over on the sides. Maybe my toilet was odd-shaped? Because of this, it also made it feel like my toilet was half the size that it really was because the back piece blocked half the toilet.I love soft close, but this one is a little too soft. I felt like it took, literally, 30 seconds to close. This isn't long in the grand scheme of things and admittedly it may just be me being weird, but it felt odd.Last but not least, this seat is massive. It totally blocked the handle so people thought the bidet handle was the flusher and then they would get sprayed.

We purchased 3 of these for the elongated toilet seats in our new home. My husband installed 2 of them and wants me to return the other one because of two issues: 1) the o-ring does not have a tight seal; and 2) a big issue is that the toilet seats want to close before we can even get on the toilet. He also says that the bidet that we previously had had more water pressure. I will update my review if there are fixes for these issues.

This is my third bidet. I love the idea of it. So easy to install, and it looks like a regular toilet seat. I also love the slow closing seat cover.I find two flaws in this model. First is the quality of the plastic seat. It squeaks every time you move. It's loud and cannot be remedied with WD40. Second and more important is how very high the spay nozzles are. They are close enough to touch your bottom. If they were lowered by at least an inch that would not happen.

I like having a bidet, but this one doesn't have a very strong spraying capability and I can't tell the difference between the front and back spray. Seems to both hit in the same spot. This being my first bidet, I will use it as long as it holds out and will probably go with a much more expensive one next time. For the money, it was worth trying before spending a lot.

Wouldn't work for me. I REALLY wanted it to. Unfortunately, when installed per the template the lid won't stay up on it's own. So when you sit you have a toilet seat lid resting on your back. When you stand to pee you would have to hold the lid open or you would make a mess. If I ignored the template and installed the seat far enough forward to stay "open" on it's own the front of the seat doesn't cover the front of the bowl itself.Very disappointing.

It is easy to install, as has been promised. So far, it works OK. The seat fits well on the elongated toilet, but a cut in the seat is much smaller than the opening of the toilet bowl, which defeats the purpose of having elongated toilet bowl in the first place.After some time of using this product I have some negative points:1. Vertically located operational lever makes a possibility of it incidental tripping very probable.2. A legend for the lever is located very inconvenient: it's invisible for the first time user (guest).3. As I already mentioned - a cut in the elongated seat is too small.A proposal: could a manufacturer produce at least two possible colors, not just white, as the toilet seats go?

sprung a leak in the handle about a month after I purchased it and exactly one day before I could return for a refund.

Leaks from the first time I got it fixed. Looks like they expect you to turn off the knob each time to prevent the leak. That's just stupid

Looks like the product is a solid build but was disappointing. Head leaks so you have to pul the level just right to stop the water flow. Has rough edges on the lever where I was expecting it to be smooth. The only two things out of the box that I ended up using were the T connector and the pipe, with my old hand held head.

This product came with a defective hose and defective spray head. The hose leaked, and we had to order a replacement. Then we realized that the spray head also leaked when the valve to permit flow of water to the bidet was left on.The new bidet came and had totally diferent parts (aesthetically) than the last one?? This could be a classic case of "Made in China." The tank clip also doesnt fit well on our toilet.

I've the valve OFF the entire time now as it drips if I leave it ON .....its been this way from day 1 but I'as too lazy to unhook this apparatus and now I'm outside the return window so it stays put.....oh & btw...keep in mind that the water hitting your dear hiny will be super cold...didn't think of that...quite the realization at 4:00 in the morning!

the thing it worked well for the first 3 months. but then it is leaking too much water from the spray openings and at the base of the handle. you need to keep the t connector shut off always and if you forget to close it for few minutes it fills your bathroom with water. I tried to find where to get replacement parts as the one year warranty not finished yet but could not find it any where at Amazon web site. so disappointed.

It works, but after having it for several months the lid tends to fall and close when opening it and it’s a bit of a hassle to clean. I can’t really recommend, it does not replace a bidet.

The T-adapter that comes with it is useless and you have to buy a different one, reason being the 7/8" thread for the water line connection is too short which causes water leak. The water pressure coming out of the bidet is low. Not sure if I will keep it at this point.https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00TCN0NP8/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

amazing, that was my first review and impression, now i gave two stars because of the t adapter it is leaking on the three bathrooms because of the shortness of the adapter.

The product is certainly more stylish than toilet seat attachments, but the water pressure is very low, even after removing the water pressure regulator. I have two LUXE Bidet Vi-110 I'm very satisfied with. For half the price, you get a much better product that works the way it's supposed to.

Works fine but after installing I go to remove the plastic protector on the seat just to find the part has been buffed. It has several obvious buffing swirls that don't look nice or match the original smooth plastic. Also seat likes to fall down due to the seat being a little taller resulting in it hitting the tank early. Adjusting seat far foreword helped a little.

It must be for very small oval toilets. It doesn't fit my toilet. The toilet tank connector is flimsy plastic and it leaks no matter what I tried.

I received this item on sept 28 and installed it like two weeks later due to time restrain. Today is is Nove 2nd and withe less than a month of use the head broke off. Cheaply made? Or maybe just. Lemon? All I know is that now I am outside of the return period with $50 down the toilet

This is ok if you have extra washers handy, and you will need those extra washers just about in every connection of the T and even at the handle end (I had to use an o-ring for the hose handle). The shutoff valve is also at the wrong side. If you don't believe me, just look at the product picture of the bidet, specifically the picture which shows it installed. If you want the hose to face out of the side of the toilet bowl, the shut off lever will be at the back side of the toilet, towards the wall. If you want the shutoff valve easily accessible to the front, the hose will be positioned towards the side of the toilet, not outside of it.

Difficult to install, would not screw on tight enough without leaking

I can't get the water to come out of the sprayer consistently. Sometimes it works great, but most of the time I have to unscrew it and blow inside it and screw it back to make it work. Other times, I have to unscrew it just a little bit but then it will cause it to leak. The cheaper plastic model (different model completely) I bought for my mom works so much better. I bought this stainless steel one and it's not good at all.

The head piece is too heavy, falls off the holder often and I'm afraid that it'll crack the floor tile. I've tried adjusting it multiple ways without luck. I'll go back to the previous brand that lasted me for 10+ years. I liked the look of it, but disappointing performance.

This is a real piece of junk, that's not worth a fraction of its price, been a problem since day leak after leak and almost cost damaging my house , the valve has been replace one the hose twice and they claim it new and improved but still leaks again in the same spot close to the handle ...is your house worth the risk and yes it looks good but it won't last

After just over 3 months of owning this I recently relized I stopped using the water feature on this seat about two months ago. The seat hole is way too small, cleaning with the water is subpar, probably because it's cold water. It basically just gets you all wet, still have to use the same amount of dry paper followed by wet wipes to clean. The seat and bowl need constant cleaning which isn't very easy due to the design. The seat makes so much squeaking noise while on it. It's very cheap plastic, the toplid shows a ton of straches after the first cleaning of it. It doesn't stay positioned on the bowl and contatly needs readjustment. Should've retuned it. About to remove it and trash it, it's more of an issue that what it's worth.

Took me 3 months, many trips to Lowe's, several plumber trips, and still won't work without leaki

Broke within a month. The lid pivot fell inside the unit, so the lid is loose.

The plumbing that comes with it is garbage. I spent a month using 3 different sets of plumbing (hose and T adapter) from the manufacturer trying to get this thing to stop leaking like crazy. It leaked at every connection at different points and the cheap hose and adapter would never seal right. Tried several different gaskets that were sent with as well as purchasing some of my own. I finally went to the hardware store and bought a separate T adapter that connects to the water source in the bathroom and hose. I had it fixed in 5 minutes using quality parts that only cost $10.It's also a cheap plastic seat that was poorly designed. The way it mounts to the toilet makes it so it does not fit well with the seat up and the seat slides around on the mounting.There are much better options. You are better of buying an under the seat bidet and a nice toilet seat for the same amount of money.All in all just a very poorly designed and made product. Seems like they were more interested in trying to make it look nice than actually function properly.

Poor quality it leaks. Very disappointed with this product.

Seemed fine at first but small clips that connect it to the base are now broken and it slides around. Didn't last a year, I have no idea if there was a warranty but too late to return to amazon. Not worth the price if I have to buy a new one every year :(
