Why use toilet paper when there’s a better way to get clean? We’re talking about bidets, of course!
Today we’re diving into the best products for converting your toilet into a bidet. We’ve personally tested all of these recommendations, so you can rest assured you’re buying something that will actually get the job done.
Let’s clear up one of the biggest questions we get asked: “What’s a bidet and why should I use one?”
Great question!
A bidet is a bathroom accessory that cleans your privates with a stream of water. It’s cleaner, gentler and much more comfortable than wiping with toilet paper. And the best part is, anyone can use one!
So when might you use a bidet?
Now that we’ve gotten the basics out of the way, let’s talk about some quick and easy ways to convert your toilet into a bidet:
There’s one last bidet we ought to mention: hand-held sprayers. They don’t actually attach to your toilet, but they mount right next to it. They look and work like a sink sprayer – just point it at your privates, squeeze the button and presto! A shower of clean water rinses you off.
You should also know that changing your current toilet into a bidet isn’t your only option. If you’re looking to overhaul your bathroom, you may want to opt for a toilet and bidet combo:
Travel bidets are also becoming a popular option for folks who want to wash with water while on the go. They run the gamut from simple squeeze bottles to battery-operated models, and they’re compact enough to fit in a purse or bag.
Without further ado, let’s take a look at the best options for transforming your toilet into a bidet!
Bidet attachments have a dirty little secret:
Most are cheaply made, leak and don’t provide a super comfortable wash.
What else should you know about attachments? Many only connect to your cold water pipe, so if you live in a chilly climate, you could be in for a pretty frigid cleanse.
Some attachments offer warm water washing, but this means you have to run a hose from your toilet to the warm water line under your bathroom sink. Depending on how your bathroom is laid out, this may be easier said than done.
Pro Tip: If you have a warm water attachment, run your sink until the water turns warm before you use the toilet. That way, there’s already warm water teed up for your attachment to use!
But it’s not all bad news! There’s one bidet attachment that stands head and shoulders above the rest: the GoBidet.
It’s true that the GoBidet is a little more expensive than some of the attachments out there. But after seeing so many attachments fall short, the GoBidet’s durability and better performance are worth paying a bit extra!
Nervous about investing in a bidet? No problem! The Saniwise is the perfect bidet seat for testing the waters. There are a few reasons we’re so excited about it:
With a $99 price tag, it’s really, really inexpensive for a bidet! It’s even cheaper than a lot of attachments or sprayers.
“But wait,” you might be thinking, “does ‘cheap’ mean ‘subpar’?”
Nope!
The Saniwise is made out of durable polypropylene plastic, so it’s higher quality than a lot of the other non-electric bidets out there.
What’s more, it has one of the most comfortable seats of any non-electric bidet we’ve tried. And because there’s no water heater to take up space, the Saniwise’s seat feels even roomier than some of the priciest bidets we sell.
Last but not least, the slim design makes the Saniwise look a lot like a regular toilet seat, so it blends into your bathroom better than an attachment or a sprayer.
Just keep in mind that the Saniwise is a non-electric bidet, and it only connects to your bathroom’s cold water source. This means it’s only going to wash you off with cool or cold water (depending on the temperature of your pipes).
In other words, if your heart is set on a soothing warm wash, it’s not the bidet for you!
Second, it only comes in an elongated seat size, so it won’t work if you have a round toilet. And if you’re looking for a bidet that gives you lots of control over the wash settings, you’ll want to skip the Saniwise in favor of an electric bidet.
But if you’re searching for a simple, good-looking bidet seat that gets the job done without breaking the bank, the Saniwise is a terrific choice!
With its ultra-compact design and wide array of features, it’s no wonder we honored the Eco NOVA with our Best New Seat of 2022 award!
If you’ve ever wondered whether bidets are sanitary, the Eco NOVA’s sterilizing system puts those worries to rest. It blasts the nozzles with germ-destroying UV light before and after each wash for maximum protection. Additionally, the Eco NOVA’s inner parts are coated in an anti-microbial solution that keeps things clean from the inside out.
The Eco NOVA is controlled with a wireless remote that uses a radio frequency signal (instead of infrared).
Why does that matter?
Infrared remotes may malfunction in bathrooms that are small or have dark walls, but the Eco NOVA’s radio frequency signal remote works like a dream in any bathroom. It even works through walls, which is great if you’re operating it on behalf of a loved one who needs help.
We’ve got even more good news!
The Eco NOVA is eligible for a 180-day risk-free trial. Install it, try it, and if you don’t love it, return it to us within the 180-day window for a full refund. We’ll even cover your return shipping!
But don’t count on returning it…almost every customer who’s ever purchased the Eco NOVA loves it. Our bet is that you will too!
Pro Tip: Installing the Eco NOVA is super easy – most folks can knock it out in about 20 minutes. Just be sure to measure your toilet first since the Eco NOVA only fits elongated bowls. Also double check that your bathroom has a spare GFCI plug available (the closer to the toilet the better).
There’s no need for your bum to miss out on a luxurious cleanse just because you’re on a budget! The Blooming R1063 is one of our favorite electric bidet seats for our price-conscious customers.
But price isn’t the only reason we recommend the R1063! It’s also a good option if you:
Here’s why the R1063 is a terrific solution for any of these scenarios:
You might expect to compromise on comfort or performance when looking for an affordable bidet seat. Not so with the R1063! It boasts many of the features you’ll find on high-end bidet seats. With a wide range of adjustments to customize water temperature, water pressure and nozzle position, you can fine-tune the wash to craft your perfect cleanse. Our testers said the R1063 rivaled the wash of bidets twice its price!
And the R1063’s rich experience doesn’t stop at the wash. The instant water heater provides continuous warm water for even the longest washes. And with a heated seat, front and rear wash modes, nozzle oscillation, warm air dryer, LED night light and user-friendly remote control, you’re sure to feel pampered.
Have a tough-to-fit toilet? The R1063 can help! It’s available in round and elongated seat sizes to provide a perfect fit with no overhang. This adaptable seat fits most one- and two-piece toilets, and since it’s narrower in the back, it’s even compatible with many French curve toilets. Our customers report that the R1063 was the solution when almost no other bidet would fit their toilet!
If you’ve ever struggled with IBS, hemorrhoids or fissures, you know the anxiety and dread that can accompany a bathroom visit. The R1063’s Hip Bath function is specially designed to soothe discomfort. One touch of a button activates a gentle 3-minute wash that relaxes sore areas and relieves painful symptoms. The warm water eases muscle spasms, enhances blood flow and improves circulation to promote healing and relieve pain.
The R1063 earns top marks from our testers and customers for its ease of use. Many user manuals don’t seem to consider…well, the user! But the R1063’s manual walks you through the process with clear, step-by-step instructions that ensure a quick and painless installation.
When it comes time to use your bidet, the R1063’s wireless remote control removes the guesswork. The clearly labeled buttons and up/down toggles make for intuitive operation. Active features and settings are displayed on the LCD screen so you know exactly what to adjust for the ideal experience. And for users who find all the options a little overwhelming, Auto Clean provides a no-fuss wash and dry with one touch.
Most bidets have some level of warranty protection, but the R1063’s coverage offers additional peace of mind. Unlike warranties that only last one year or gradually decrease coverage over time, the R1063’s warranty provides 100% coverage of all parts and labor for the full three-year duration. Combined with Blooming’s top-notch customer service and our free lifetime expert support, you can feel confident upgrading your bathroom with the R1063.
It’s not every day that you’ll find a combination of price, features and protection like the R1063’s. If you’re looking for a feature-rich bidet seat that won’t break the bank, it’s a great option to consider!
Rave Reviews: Our customers say the R1063 is “easy to install and even easier to use.” With “tons of great features”, it “looks fantastic and functions great.”
“Wait a second”, you might be thinking, “where’s your hand-held bidet recommendation?” We’ve got a confession:
We don’t recommend any hand-held bidets. None. Nada. Zero. Zilch.
“But why?” you might ask. “Aren’t they inexpensive, easy to install and even easier to use?”
They are. But there’s a caveat, and it’s a big one.
Time and time and time again, we’ve seen customers purchase a hand-held bidet only for it to eventually leak all over their bathroom floor. Sometimes they start leaking a few months after purchase, sometimes a year or two later. And sometimes, the leaking begins within days or weeks.
Regardless of the time frame, it happens so frequently and with so many brands that we’ve stopped recommending them altogether.
A potentially flooded bathroom is bad enough, but there’s another reason we don’t like hand-helds. Getting the water in the right spot usually involves twisting your torso and shoving your hand between your bum and the toilet seat.
It’s an awkward and uncomfortable process. Plus, there’s a good chance of you’ll get poo on your hand while it’s back there. And that’s just gross!
Nevertheless, if you’ve got your heart set on a hand-held bidet, here are our top tips for avoiding issues:
But the best way to avoid a flooded bathroom? Invest in a high-quality bidet seat.
In all our years of selling bidets, we’ve rarely seen a properly installed bidet seat leak. Sure, they’re a little pricey. But so is remodeling a flooded bathroom!
You can add a bidet to almost any one- or two-piece toilet. There’s one major exception to this rule: French curve toilets.
Instead of having a right angle where the tank meets the bowl, French curve toilets have a stylish arc. This arc makes it tough to add a bidet converter kit.
Depending on the model, you may be able to fit a bidet attachment or certain bidet seats onto a French curve toilet. Our team is familiar with the bidets that will and won’t work on one of these special toilets, so reach out to us if you think your toilet might have French curves.
If you’re working with a smaller-than-average toilet, like an RV toilet, you don’t have quite as many options. A handful of bidet seats will work with some RV toilets, but your best bet is probably the GoBidet attachment.
And if you’re purchasing a bidet seat, there’s one key step you don’t want to skip: measure your toilet bowl! Knowing whether you have a round or elongated toilet bowl will guarantee you buy a bidet seat that fits correctly.
There are so many reasons that washing off beats wiping, so why wait any longer to change your toilet into a bidet?
