Side by Side Comparison of: BioBidet vs Astor

I will update this review after a few months of use.Instructions are clear with the exception that they did not cover proper positioning of the toilet seat front-to-back. It's pretty much common sense though, so not a big deal. The method of attachment to the toilet is really quite simple and it's easy to remove and replace after installation.Plumbing connections were also simple. I just removed the existing hose and replaced with the parts supplied. You should not need anything else as long as you have a typical U.S. toilet connection with 3/8" compression fitting at the valve.I was fortunate to have easy access to power inside the cabinet adjacent to the toilet, so I ran a line from the existing power and added a new plug receptacle closer to the toilet, but within the cabinet base. I then cut a hole in the side of the cabinet near the toilet large enough for the plug to pass through.After that, you pretty much just turn on the water and plug it in. It worked great right from the start! It seems to be just like ones I've used in Japan at very high-end hotels.

This product is a little spendy....but worth EVERY.SINGLE.PENNY! I've never used a bidet before. My husband has been clamoring for one ever since his European vacation years ago. So being the lovely wife that I am, I got him one for our anniversary. This has multiple settings. Front for the ladies. Rear for everyone. Kids setting too. You can have it cycle through the types of cleanses, adjust the temperature of the water, and the seat heat. I don't have patience for the drying function. So you know...a still use a bit of paper for that.Listen, I'm new to reviewing products, but I have told all my friends that they need this. I mean in general we do it wrong, we've been doing it wrong for years, America. LOL! If you had some poo on your hand would you just wipe if off with paper? No, you would wash it with water...minimally.As soon as I get more $$$ this is going in the front bathroom too.

Excellent product. I first got introduced to the automatic bidet recently in Korea and this model has all the pertinent features.Installation was easy onto an American Standard Cadet 3 oval toilet. The bracket fits on the narrowest notch and is a little tricky to reach from the backside. The hoses were not difficult either. I utilized the splitter and actually had the toilet tank come off the line pointing downwards. The bidet reservoir is attached to the other line pointing forwards and makes an "S" alongside the toilet. I used the right angle joint at the intake port to make sure the hose does not direct laterally.The unit functions well and has plenty of features. I don't think additional features are necessary. It has been durable for the past week since installation and I've not had any problems. I would definitely recommend this product.

We have only had this product installed for a day, so my comments focus on our installation and initial experience. Overall, my wife and I are delighted with this product. I spend a lot of time in Japan and am familiar with the local products, and the Bio Bidet meets and exceeds my average experience in Japan. While this product is a bit pricey, it is definitely worth it to have heated water, a heated seat and a drying fan. We have used the $50-type bidet and I didn't enjoy the very cold water (especially in the winter), nor the lack of controls.This bidet has functions for both men and women, and good adjustments for temperature controls and the position of the spraying nozzle. I really like the oscillating feature which ensures a good, clean result! While I never had a fan function before, I like this one. It doesn't fully dry one's bottom, but does most of the work.Installation was much easier than I had expected. I'm an average handy man, but this installation took only about 30 minutes and everything worked perfectly from the start! Attaching the seat to the custom frame on the toilet was not easy, but it works.Another reviewer wrote that he needed plumbers teflon tape, so I bought some and used it. I had no leaks, so teflon tape would be a good $2 investment. All of the other parts were fully provided and worked as planned. The water hoses are at least 12 inches long, so will often need to be coiled behind and under the toilet. This is understandable as some users will need longer hoses, and I, personally, don't find them unsightly. It would be cheap and easy to buy shorter ones.The instruction manual is quite good, but I would have appreciated a more detailed description of the different parts of this product. For example, it was not obvious to me where to connect the water line to the seat/bidet.Despite my minor critiques, this is a fantastic addition to our home.I highly recommend this product.

If you've never used a bidet seat, as we had not, you will be pleasantly surprised, to say the least. It's one of those things that you wonder how you ever got along without. A recent article in the NY Times about bidet seats asked the question that if you came home from work or the gym all dirty or sweaty, would you clean yourself off with paper or would you shower? The answer is obvious and so is the need for one of these. It has loads of options, yet the basics work great. Everything is warm, everything is gentle. It's very popular with family and friends (especially women) and makes for interesting conversation. The sounds coming out of the bathroom the first time someone uses it are, well, something to hear. I used a 3M Command hook to attach their laminated graphical instruction sheet (a huge plus) to the wall next to the toilet, as the provided suction cup hook would not stick to anything.The challenge with installing one of these is that there needs to be an electrical outlet near the toilet. Our bathroom had none, and I'd be pretty surprised if most people do. So while in the process of replacing the toilet anyway I also installed a new outlet (much easier w/o the toilet in the way). If you don't have such skills (and maybe a dropped ceiling downstairs), you will need an electrician. Plumbing this bidet is trivial.I almost dropped this review to 4 stars due to second-rate online support. When my bidet arrived from Amazon it was missing the inline filter. I immediately contacted BioBidet via chat and explained I'd just received it from Amazon and the filter was missing. Instead of an apology, I was grilled on where I'd bought it, and had to state three times it was Amazon. Then she started in on a lecture about authorized (which she acknowledged Amazon is) and unauthorized sellers. At that point I got snippy, something I never do, and asked are you going to send me a filter or do I return it to Amazon? Immediately she requested my address and I received the missing filter promptly. But I got no apology for their failure. So the product works great and the missing item was received, and so I give it 5 stars. But online support definitely needs work.

The bidet arrived promptly and in good condition. It was fairly easy to install, and it helped that there was an electric outlet very near the toliet, so the cord (about 40" long) had no problem reaching the outlet. The bidet is works very well and we are happy with the purchase. My wife is from Japan, and we became familiar with this kind of bidet from our trips over there. Virtually all hotels and restaurants now have these installed, and they are extremely popular there. Surprised that more of them aren't in use here in the USA.

I love my bidet. Yes, love. I'm an American who never knew the pleasure of a truly clean bum. For the last two and a half years, I've had a painful rash that bled down below. The doctors I saw said nothing could be done apart from losing a lot of weight. This is fine and dandy, except walking or jogging often made me bleed more, and caused terrible pain. I ruined more than one set of good undies this way. I tried so many things, from creams, steroids, essential oils (BAD idea... Especially the peppermint.. ouch.), Wipes... I was basically resigned to a life of stinging, painful sitting, walking, laying down, existing, etc...Now what has this to do with a bidet? Finally, I was reading yet another article that claimed to have a solution. It suggested a bidet. I cautiously bought one, thinking it couldn't hurt...Oooooooohhh man. The first time I used my Astor Bidet, my bum informed me that I had a new bestie. This last month has been the lowest pain I've experienced in two and a half years.Now for the review of the product:Easy to install. Took me less than 5 minutes.It does raise your toilet seat up. Mine is plastic, no big deal. Were my throne cover ceramic, I would need spacers.The two lowest settings don't do anything. It's about the third click that the wonderful stream starts. Top setting feels like a forceful enema from a shotgun.Even though the clicks designate the settings, the in betweens are just fine, and you can easily adjust between them.I don't really have a downside, this is my first bidet, so I'm not terribly versed in all the frills... One that dries might be nice one day, but for now, my bum is happy.My wife refuses to try it lol. I love it, and won't poop without it... Which she is strangely OK with.. something about me pooping in my own bathroom while she has her private one upstairs....

We became acquainted with bidets at the home of an acquaintance, so decided to get some for ourselves. We purchased one for each bathroom from Astor, after reading the information and reviews, and are happy we did. They arrived right on time, a friend of ours installed them for us and they work perfectly. I feel clean and fresh after bowel movements and use a lot less toilet paper, and therefore flush less. So this is good for the environment as well as being good for us! The low setting is what I recommend as being strong enough to do the job.

This is one great product! My husband just had back surgery so he can't twist or bend over which causes a real issue when he goes to the bathroom. Our son-in-law found the bidet on Amazon and ordered it, we got it quickly and he installed it in less then 15 minutes. You get a range of water pressure (as my husband puts it " from garden hose to fire hose." ) I love it too, it makes me feel clean and fresh.

This has been a game changer in my day to day life; in retrospect I may have spent more for the fancier ones on Amazon but this is worth the price and was easy to install and I have no wish to part this until it breaks or I get a place with a second toilet.

This product is very easy to install and the instructions are clear. The price is very good. I did not use any Teflon tape for securing anything. The water comes out just right and a good angle. the pressure of the wash is adjustable. (TIP: use a lower pressure at the main valve for comfort). It cleans very well. Some splatter may happen initially in the back part oft he toilet seat. BE CAREFUL if you want to test it without sitting on it, as could go a long way! :) [I've used it for about 3 months now]

 Astor Bidet Fresh Water Spray Non-Electric Mechanical Bidet Toilet Seat Attachment

Just got it, overall, it is good, not sure if it is due to my expectation or usage, I think the water and dry air is not as hot as I expected. I have read through the user manual, and pretty sure I have set them to the warmest, however, I still hardly feel the warm from either water during cleaning or air during drying, I can just say they are not freeze code. My room temperature is fine around ~70 F..

This is a very efficient easy to use unit. You need some basic plumbing skills and 20-30 minutes depending on your skill level. It is worth reading the manual as there are many choices on how to use this Bidet. I have had Toto in the past and this one has a slightly different spray feature. More like a shower with the result you are looking for. I had a pelvic fracture and had it ready when I got out of the hospital. If you are thinking of putting out the money for one of these you will be amazed that you waited so long once you have it.

This was my first bidet, so I can't say how it compares to any other. With that said, I'm really happy and regret not buying one sooner. I had some trouble installing with the included hardware, because of a leak, I feel like there should have been some kind of rubber washer included for the adapter they included so I ended up going to the hardware store and made my own adapter. Could be problematic if you aren't at least a little bit handy.As to the function of the bidet, the controls are pretty basic. As of writing this I've been using it for about 8 months.You'll have to play around with the settings to get things to your comfort level, but it certainly has the power to surprise the heck out of you. The heated seat is greaat. The way it seems to work is that while not in use the seat still seems to be heated but just slightly. In the cold season this means if you wake up in the middle of the night or morning the seat isn't going to be cold to the touch. And then as you sit, it will warm up more based on your settings. The warm water function is great too. The water only warms up while you are sitting so the longer you sit, the longer the water has to warm up. On medium settings you'll notice the change in temperature from hot to warm/cooler but it's not uncomfortable.The drying function doesn't really dry fully on the automatic setting. However, I don't like being on the toilet longer than I have to so I prefer to wipe dry which I don't mind. Plus it's nice to see a damp clean sheet that you discard in case you were ever unsure the job was done right.Lastly there is a sensor built into the middle left side on the seat (left side if you are sitting on it). This sensor will turn the unit off if you aren't positioned properly. As someone that likes to squat when I go number 2 my thigh will not be on the seat to activate the sensor so I have to rest my hand kind of awkwardly so that way the water and seat will warm up as I'm doing my business.I feel like they could have built a better sensor.I don't know of any kind of bidet show room where you can "kick the tires" haha, but I would certainly recommend this one to a friend. And 5 stars if there was a better seat sensor, and I didn't have to Jerry rig my installation hardware.

So glad we purchased this product! We've been happily using it for 1 month now and really enjoying and feeling fresh and clean! It is a new way of life and we truly love it! Our contractor said not to buy it - but we are really glad that we did not listen and can't imagine life without it now that we have it. It really is fantastic! Only giving it 4 stars as oppose to 5 because it takes a little bit of time to get the job done and I am wondering if it could be faster? Not sure. Often I am too impatient to sit for the drying.... but bring a good book, take your time and enjoy!

I became a bidet "convert" 5 years ago when my wife made me buy a Toto washlet bidet for around $500. Bidets are awesome little devices that make the common American practice of "dry wiping" seem downright medieval, especially if you suffer from hemorrhoids or anal fissure. It's funny to hear me bandstand at parties sometimes, talking-up the benefits of a "wet wash" vs. a "dry rub", with people staring wide-eyed and quizzically fearful at the notion of using water to clean feces off of skin. Anyways, this Bio-Bidet BB-600 I got for $349 here on Amazon is what my wife refers to as her long awaited "upgrade" from the aging Toto, which still works fine but lacks the auto-rotating head (massage) feature and some other bells and whistles and now migrates to my daughter's bathroom (she is thrilled). It was easy to install with no tools (well, OK I used some channel locks to go a bit more than hand tight on the water supply connection), and took about 15 minutes. I watched the BioBidet installation video at [...] first, and the unit shown was similar enough to the BB-600 that I didn't do more than glance at the installaton instruction sheet that came with the unit. The bidet fired right up, worked as advertised, made my wife happy. Installed three days ago and so far no problems. If I do have any issues I will update this review. 4 stars because I think the seat quality is a little low (plastic) and the quick reference guide could do a better job describing the features (there are a lot of buttons!).

Overall, the seat is working as expected.I purchased a 'Used - Very Good, Item has no cosmetic scratches or blemishes. Comes in original packaging. Packaging will be damaged.' from Amazon Warehousedeals.When the package arrived, there was a minor scratch on the seat and only one hose. The Operating Instruction Manual says there should be 2 hoses. There was a T fitting but nowhere in the instructions does it say what the T fitting sizes are nor what the seat fitting size is.The Seat that I received has a 1/2" faucet and the T is 1/2" for all 3 connections. A standard toiled has a 7/8" and the wall cut-off is 3/8". The one hose I received was 1/2" to 1/2" so it worked for the connection from the T to the seat. Not wanting to wait to see what Amazon customer service would do, I purchased a 3/8" to 1/2" hose, discarding the original 3/8" to 7/8" hose, and purchased a 1/2" to 7/8" hose.The toilet we have is a 2 year old American Standard Elongated. The seat attachment bolts are long Teflon bolts. I had to cut one because it hit part of the tank under the back.So be prepared as you might have to make some modifications and purchase other then normal wall to toilet hoses after you match up the seat to your toilet.

Every heard the ol saying, "You get what you pay for?" Well, the case is true here as well. Although this does work well, and it was super easy to install. I wish I had spent the extra money and bought the one with both hot and cold water connections. Can we say Burrrrrrr? If the cold doesn't bother you down there. this is well worth it. Me? I'm a bit cold blooded, so I"ll be switching over soon. Enjoy.

I really would like to give this a 5 star, but the installation wasn't the easiest, by no means was it hard, I just had a hard time inserting the rubber hose onto the bidet, and I also question how securely they are attached, will my cat knock the hose loose and cause water to spew out and flood the house until it's found and fixed? Other than that, this device boosted my my hygiene confidence level, I feel confident going even after a shower. I've had this Bidet for about 7 months now, and have had no problems with it. You may need or want to add something to the toilet seat so it will sit more evenly when sitting on it, or it may break the seat.

The Good: Works as described, quality parts, relatively easy install.The Bad: I live in St. Louis, MO; The average ground temperature is 52 degrees F. That makes for one COLD stream of water on the tush! I am an alto that sings soprano when it turns on! :) It leaves a 3/4" gap at the front of the toilet seat...Doesn't cause a problem, just startling if you are not aware or used to it. Finally, you MUST tighten the plastic fittings with a wrench to avoid leaks. I believe they advertise that you do not need tools to install, but you do.

Easy installation and does what it's designed to do. Surprisingly accurate aim. The only thing I'm not happy about is now my toilet seat sits at an angle. I don't know if that is bad for the seat or not, I guess we'll see. Seems like some toilet seat front risers would fix that issue. Now I have to search for some the hight the bidet raises the seat. Or perhaps it's a nonissue.

For the price, it's great. My only real complaint is the appearance of the mounts. Kind of ugly, and you have to pay close attention to how much room you have to the left of the toilet (if you're standing up facing it). Literally one more millimeter and I would've been back to the dry-wipe zone.As for it's main function; you have to sort of scoot around as you schpritz up, mo make sure you get every nook and crannie. Also, since there's no warm water to it, that initial blast is a shocker ... gets ya every time, and in the winter if you do it for too long you'll end up with a frozen rosebud. Lastly, heed others' warnings about turning it on full blast or you'll end up with a high colonic. I thought I was a "badass" and turned it up to 11 the first time ... almost launched me into the next room.All-in-all, if you're looking for a decent, "starter" bidet at a cheap price, you'll be happy with this one, and the installation (albeit icky) really is easy.

I first used a bidet while visiting Japan for 6 weeks. I thought they were great, and when I got home I vowed that I would one day upgrade my toilet to a bidet toilet. I then promptly forgot about it until nearly a year later. I did some research into bidet toilets and one look at the price convinced me to try an alternative. The bidet toilet seat attachments seemed the easiest and cheapest way to go, so I found the cheapest one with the highest ratings and bought it.I used several different types of bidet while in Japan, and while I really liked the ultra-nice ones with the warm water, the seat heaters, the multiple streams, and the little dryers, none of those are really necessary. This simply little bidet does only one thing: shoot out cold water with varying degrees of pressure. And that is all that I really needed. I was worried that the cold water might be uncomfortable, but it doesn't bother me at all. The water pressure is good, I never need to go above "Low".It was easy to install, though it would have been about 10 times easier if the instructions weren't utterly worthless. The parts it comes with are fairly intuitive to assemble. The only part that really held me up was the little clear hose that connected the bidet to the toilet tank. I assembled the entire thing and was left with that one piece only to find that it was impossible to get on without taking it all apart again. So make sure that hose is connected to the tank attachment before putting the attachment on the tank.Oh, and when I say easy to install, I am speaking as a woman who has never done any plumbing work in her life - the most I assemble are bookshelves and desks. So, yeah, really easy to install.Instructions:1. Connect the clear hose to the toilet tank thingy.2. Connect the toilet tank thingy to the toilet tank.3. Remove the toilet seat and reassemble it with the bidet.4. Connect the clear hose to the bidet.5. You are done. Test for leaks. It works, yay!UPDATE 2/21/13: 2 years of use and absolutely no problems!UPDATE 1/1/15: 4 years of use and all is well!

The unit had no T fitting that worked with our setup. I went to Lowe's, Home Depot and a plumbing supply store. They all said there was no such fitting. The I called Bio-Bidet. They had one and shipped it to me at no cost. I should have started there but I wanted to save time.The bidet works as advertised. I find the seat itself a little small and I wish it had a spray with greater pressure.

Tried two bb800, two bb600, all have a same problem that is noise,huge mechanical sound when press a real wash bottom. The best part for bb is the water pressure better than any bidets.

The bidet looked nice but was defective. We returned it.

In general, it meets my expectation. Only the dry function is on the weak side.

The good:- heated seat is really great- seems to do a decent wash job- easy to use- easy to install if you have an available GFCI outlet, although the supplied hose is short.The not-so-good:- the level controls for water and air pressure make very little difference (no noticeable difference at all for air pressure). Even on the lowest setting water pressure is almost painfully high on 'Cleansing'. The pressure setting does work on 'Auto'.- the drying function seems fairly useless. Even after two cycles expect to still use TP.- does not remember the settings for pressure, so every time it starts on level 3 (out of 5) and we have to turn it down to 1 (see first negative about excessive pressure).Overall I am a bit disappointed but I had high expectations based on the Amazon reviews. I love the concept but this one leaves a bit to be desired.UPDATE 11/03/2016: we have now had this for about 8 months. The seat now has a nasty discoloration happening (see the photo). During this time the heated seat setting has always been on the lowest level of 3 levels, so if it is caused in part by thermal stress then I would imagine it could have been much worse. Starting to look pretty ugly. You can't just install a new generic seat either as it is an integral part with the seat heater. We'll probably be finding out soon how good that 3 year warranty actually is and I'll report back on that.UPDATE 11/03/2016: contacted the support e-mail address and after having me sign an at-home repair waiver, they said they will send a replacement.UPDATE 11/12/2016: replacement seat arrived, so I can vouch for customer service. They replaced just the heated seat, not the whole unit, which is fine, but I did have to sign a release form saying that I would be responsible for the in-home repair. It's possible they would have accepted me returning it to them for repair, but I had insisted they send me a part as I didn't want to be without a functioning toilet, so I never explored that option.

Worked great and looks good but be careful where and from whom you buy the BB-600. My order from Amazon Warehouse deals was not covered under a normal warranty after 1 year of use.

There are only a couple factors for the reason I returned this product. Overall I like it’s effectiveness. However, my toilet seat hovers almost a whole inch above the actual bowl. I thought I could fix this problem by buying the rubber seat bumpers to place underneath, but the gap is just way too obvious. I assume this is probably not a problem for most people depending on the style of their toilets, but it is a problem for me. Although the leaking problem is not major, I do recommend buying the stainless steel attachment to replace the plastic one that comes with this product for a more secure fit. This product may be good for someone with a different toilet size, but I will be looking for something a bit thinner.

It works very well but the angle of the stream does not work for me. The plastic hose connectors are a little cheaply made. Metal connectors would have been better. After installation at started leaking after trying to tighten kept leaking. I had to recut house and reseat. Finally got it to stop leaking but adapter scratched up with plier marks. I bought the gobidet. It's all metal and the stream comes from bottom up.

I do like it, and having a bidet-especially at this price point- has cut my toilet paper use in half. The only issue I've had, as some others have experienced as well, is the rubber tube that screws into the water supply from the bidet mechanism has been leaking as of late where it connects to the water supply. Not sure if it's the knob component that screws over the tube to the water supply, or if it's the hose itself, but every once in a while there will be a puddle of water directly under it. I've reattached, but after about a week or so its back to leaking and I just have a small bucket under it until I can resolve the issue.

Installed 2 in Feb 2015. Both worked very well. After 15 months one unit developed internal leak that dumped water on bathroom floor when used. Units worked so well I took a chance and ordered another to replace leaking unit. Have not installed yet. When I do intend to try to diagnose and repair malfunctioning unit. As I said, units did job intended for but leaking unit prevents giving better rating.

l've had this bidet for two years now and noticed a slow water leak yesterday. The leak was internal, so I took it apart to see where it was coming from. There was a clear tube from valve to sprayer that had a crack in it, so only leaked when turning valve on to start sprayer. Don't know what caused the crack in the tube. The bidet works fine but I only gave it 3 stars because I place high priority on how well things hold up to use and two years is not very good. I'll pay more for better quality if I can find one or I might try replacing the tube if I can be sure of no leaks. We'll see.

Installation is very easy, the product is well made and of quality construction. Unfortunately I had to return this item because of its size. I is much larger than expected and takes up a significant amount of space next to your toilet. For my application it didn't actually fit where I needed it to. If you have a spacious bathroom this wouldn't be an issue for you. For me, I find it large and gaudy looking. It's about the size of a toilet paper roll (single ply) and sticks far out from your toilet. I was expecting something more discrete.I also think the spray nozzle should be designed better. The jet stream is very hard even at lower settings. It needs an aerator or larger openings so it is not such a focused stream. It does not come out as it's shown in the picture.

The toilet seat has some major problems:1) If you invest in a high end toilet seat, the toilet lid should be nice. The toilet seat is not a flat surface, it digs into my back. Would love to have a solid wood toilet seat lid on this.2) Secondly, the toilet seat removes a good bit of the extra space you wanted in the elongated toilet seat. I am a big guy and need the elongated toilet space, I have had major problems with this seat.3) The water pressure from this seat is much less than what I had anticipated, like a real bidet.4) It would be very nice if the controls were tethered but handheld so that you could see the buttons.5) The air dryer needs much higher output, takes forever to dry.On the positive side:1) Nice to have a warm tushy when going potty at night.2) Has a cool look when it is closed at night.

It's been 6 month and the product has a hardware malfunction. "Slow-closing seat" no longer works. Now the seat slams down waking everybody up in the middle of the night.Also took off 2 stars for the pulse heating.Hot water heating does not work well. The water is nice and warn in the beginning then it gets cooler as it goes eventually becoming barely lukewarm at the end. This is despite using the energy burning feature by have the unit on all the time. Even after hours with heating on, it does nor provide warm water for the entire wash.Heating element works on pulses, causing all my light fixture on the same circuit to flash/blink.

Great design and features but didn't heat properly. Bought through Woot they couldn't exchange but sent prepaid label and promised a full refund

Worked great for a month. Small piece came off the nozzle. Can't find a replacement for it anywhere or contact the company for one. If I can't figure a fix on my own, my next purchase will be with another company that provides some sort of customer service. I shouldn't have to buy a whole unit for parts when it's a month old, even if it's inexpensive.

Assembled the two bidets that I got, one works just fine and the other one is absolute crap. The nozzle that sprays water refuses to go down and when it does, it's so sudden. I had thrown away the box as soon as I had taken it out, placing my trust in the product. Clearly that is a mistake considering I can't return without the box.

Eventually it broke and started leaking water. Plus, it's kind of a pain in the butt to disassemble and clean. It gets pretty gross because poo ricochets off your butt when it sprays you clean.Don't get me wrong. Having a bidet is great and this definitely worked at first but a $30 bidet that you have to replace eventually is less than ideal. Water damage can be serious business, y'know? It's not worth it. Get something sturdier. Buy it for life.

I bought 2 of these and they worked great at first, but within about 3 months, one of the nozzles started dripping, but we were able to live with it since we could just twist the knob on a little and off again and the dripping would stop.About a month and a half ago, the second one began dripping from the side where the knob is and flooding our floor. We've had to shut off the water to the toilet until it is replaced. We will throw it out and get a new one. Needless to say, I won't be buying the same one and wouldn't recommend this.It's worth it to pay a little more in my opinion and get one that will last longer than 6 months. One might have been a manufacturer defect, but both is just poor quality.

We've had this for several months and the whole family loves it. However, we are going to have to figure out a different solution because I can't keep the toilet clean without SCRUBBING after each bidet use. I don't know if it's just my family. The toilet we have without the bidet is much easier to keep clean (and it never needs the SCRUBBING). In addition, the part of the bidet that spans the toilet bowl adds an extra spot that is difficult to clean: you can't move the plastic out of the way to clean. This results in cleaning solution and suds getting stuck in between the bowl and the bidet. I'm scared to see what it looks like when we remove the bidet.This product definitely made us into a bidet family, but this isn't working for me. My dream is to get a fancy Japanese toilet when we renovate. Until then, I think I'll try the hand-held sprayer that doesn't add any additional nooks and crannies to the toilet bowl.

OK, I've wanted a bidet for some time, but they are expensive and I'd have to totally remodel to have enough room for one. So when these got under $30 I thought I'd try one.The good news its that it's easy to install and the only tool I needed was a straight screwdriver. No leaks and it took about 10 minutes.The bad news is that it is uncomfortable to use due to the cold water. I know that there are a lot of reviewers stating that the cold water wasn't a problem, but either my water is VERY cold or there are temperature sensors in my nether regions. I tend to accept the later explanation. In a word it hurts to use this thing...not a lot, but definitely uncomfortable. Also there are a couple of other minor issues; the toilet seat doesn't rest on the bowl properly anymore as the back pads, which are part of the hinge, contact the Astor bidet so the the front bumpers don't rest on the bowl until you sit down and put everything under some stress. Nothing has broken...yet, but it's not right. Also since the water comes up in one spot only you have to kind of mambo around on the seat....I have to move forward about an inch and move from side to side to wash. Not a big deal, but a slightly wider spray pattern may be better. The last thing is that it doesn't save on toilet paper as others have suggested, at least not for me. I have to pat myself dry and that takes just about the same amount of paper as before....maybe a bit less, but not significantly so.Would I buy another or recommend it? Nope.

water temp is not warm can not regulate

Great product, really cleans..and very easy to setup. Only took me a few minutes to have it set up and ready for use.Update: now after 6 months of use(not even that regular use, and I only have two people in house), the soft closing is already broken, and heated seat functionality is broken too.Talked with customer service, even if it's under warranty, they only offer replacement part for free(cost like a few bucks anyway...), but you'll have to repair it yourself! Or send your broken peace to their service center but you'll have to pay for shipping and extra charge etc...Not worth it, not buying with them anymore..

It works great...until it doesn't then have fun paying to ship it back to them for evaluation.I purchased the item in February of this year and it worked fine until about a month ago when it started leaking a bit into the bowl. Soon the drop here and there turned into a constant flow so I had to call and figure out what to do. The customer service rep had no answers so they informed me that my unit would have to be returned to their facility for evaluation and repair BUT, they don't pay for that, you have to pay for shipping, then they decide what they're going to do.Once you get the email informing you of how to return the product, you then get additional information about them deciding how much they're going to cover for the repairs and whether they're going to charge you an additional amount before sending it back to you...i.e. they're going to hold your product hostage unless you pay them what they demand.While it works, it's a great product, however; given the nature of their customer service, I would definitely not recommend purchasing from them.

Doesn't work. Think we got a bad unit. No water pressure. It trickles out, but water doesn't even touch the user. Doesn't heat and control panel doesn't work. Have left 2 messages with bio bidet with no response. Looks like I'll have to return to Amazon.

smells like urine, this was use not just a damaged box and the toilet seat is broken in 2 places

be careful. This will not fit many toilets and they won't let you return it

I never write reviews but wanted to warn potential buyers to avoid this product. I installed this product per instructions from seller and it worked okay at first. I went out of town for the weekend and came home to a leaky bidet and a wet bathroom floor. It was leaking from the water connection below the dial. The water line was still connected very snugly to the water inlet but that did stop the steady water drip onto my bathroom floor. Of course the product malfunctioned outside of my return deadline by 16 days so I can't return it. I do not recommend this product!

It has good pressure and very easy to install. I know I installed correctly, but as water was on it caused water to go under the toilet lid which made water go all over the floor. Tested a few times on low pressure and high pressure, didn't matter water would still go on the back of the toilet and go to the floor. Was not leaking from connectors so it didn't work on our toilet. Minutes to install and five minutes later off it went.

when i saw this, i thought it was cool! cheap solution after visiting Korea. .... After I got it, i realize just how bad this is!!! My husband hated it and refuse to sit on it!!!! we returned the next day.

I'm very good with plumbing, however the cheap tubing they use to tap in to a water line, and feed the unit generated a leak after week 2, causing damage to ceiling. Had to throw in the trash.

July 2017DEFECTIVE PRODUCT. NO WARRANTY INFORMATION AVAILABLE.I've bought three bidets so far. Out of which, two have become defective within 6 months of use. One started leaking from the internal tubing. While the second one's control knob came off.I haven't been able to find any warranty information for this product except for the generic verbiage by Amazon.Folks, if you are not aware of the clean feel that comes with using water, you are missing out on something in life. I wish there was a travel version of the bidet that I could carry around.Must use toilet paper, then bidet, then toilet paper for best results. Gross? Well not so much when you are done using this bidet. It will boost your personal hygiene!

I purchased this Bidet after our BioBidet had ran its course and wanted to try a different brand. What a mistake! We bought two of them, in case our other bathroom BioBidet took a flush down the toilet. We installed it and it worked great for about a week and then the spray nozzle would drip constantly. It was closed by the turn dial, which almost broke as I tried to close it. but it kept dripping. I uninstalled it and put the new one, to see if it was just a bad one. And to my surprise the "new" Astor Bidet had already been used before! I took the unused parts and tried to fix it but to no avail it was not working. The turn dial is very flimsy and almost broke when I tried to turn it off so the leaking would stop. Overall, this is a very cheap product and I tried to find the manufacturers to get a warranty but I cannot locate them. It doesn't have any information on the box nor the warranty card. THIS IS A VERY BAD PRODUCT! Going back to the BioBidet!
