Detailed Comparison of the Brondell Swash SE600 and Bio Bidet BB-800 Prestige Bidet Seats

Are you looking to add a bidet seat to your home, but would prefer a more economical option? If so, the Bio Bidet BB-800 and Brondell SE600 are two wonderful models to consider. Both are thoughtfully designed to add convenience and comfort to your daily bathroom routine, yet stay within a budget friendly price range. Read on for more details and differences between these seats so you can make the proper decision for your household.

Design

Both the BB-800 and Swash SE600 feature attractive design elements. If you tend to prefer more modern aesthetics, you will appreciate the sleek design of the Swash SE600 and it’s wireless wall mount remote. Both models come in white and are available for both round and elongated style toilets.

Remote Controls

From the get go, you’ll notice these seats are different in the way they are controlled. The BB-800 offers a control panel attached to the right side of the bidet that has icon buttons for choosing options. On the other hand, the Swash SE600 has a streamlined, intuitively designed remote that can be hand-held, or mounted to wall depending on your preference. These different remote styles are one of the biggest things to consider when comparing these two units.

Wash

Nozzle Design

The BB-800 includes a plastic, 3-in-1 nozzle that provides a high quality, front, rear and turbo wash. Conveniently, this nozzle is also easy to replace if ever necessary. In comparison, The Swash SE600 has a single 2-in-1 nozzle for its front and rear wash that’s made of stainless steel and can adjust to 5 different positions. The nozzles on both these units are self cleaning and offer an oscillation function, as well as a soothing pulse wash.

It’s worth noting that a stainless steel nozzle, like the Swash SE600 has, is considered a more desirable option than plastic. Stainless steel is not only more durable, but it is also comprised of bacteria repelling properties that promote additional hygiene.

Rate of Water Flow

This can be an important feature to consider if you struggle with incontinence issues or if you are looking for a particularly powerful cleansing experience. The BB-800 has the higher water flow rate at .32 gallons per minute, while the SE600 offers a rate of 0.11 gallons per minute. Generally, a higher water flow rate ensures a stronger, more effective wash cycle.

Wide Spray

With a similar effect as the high water flow rate, wide spray is feature that provides additional water coverage. The BB-800 carries this feature and it can be beneficial for cleaning up accidental messes due to bowel or urinary incontinence. It’s also a nice feature if you want to speed things up and get clean a little quicker.

Turbo Wash

Turbo wash is the third wash option that the BB-800 offers. Although it’s not quite as strong as Bio Bidet’s patented enema wash, the turbo wash produces a more focused stream that helps to stimulate bowel movements. This feature can provide relief from uncomfortable constipation and should definitely be a consideration if that is an issue in your household.

Other Details

One Button Wash & Dry

For those that would benefit from additional convenience and simplicity, this is a great feature to have on your bidet. The one button wash and dry is included on the Swash SE600 and allows you to run a complete wash and dry cycle with just the touch of a button. This function is particularly useful for the elderly, who may prefer the ease of just pressing one button to initiate things. It’s also nice for those who would like to take advantage of a straightforward, no fuss option.

Deodorizer

Although the deodorizer is usually a feature you find on more expensive bidet seats, the budget friendly Swash SE600 offers this useful feature. Even better, the SE600’s deodorizer utilizes an active charcoal filter to eliminate unpleasant odors without the use of harsh chemicals. This allows you to keep your bathroom smelling fresh and clean in an environmentally friendly way.

LED Night Light

The LED nightlight is another great option you’ll find on the budget friendly SE600. This feature makes those night time bathroom trips so much easier by illuminating the bowl with a soft blue light.

Final Thoughts

These seats come in at a similar price point and each offer great, yet varying features. Either would be a great option as a entry-mid level bidet seat. As mentioned above, one of the most important points to consider is how you would prefer to control the bidet seat. If you like the attached side panel, the BB-800 has a lot to offer. Otherwise, the Swash SE600 gives you the versatile wall mount remote as well as numerous other features usually only found on higher end models, like the LED night light, deodorizer, stainless steel nozzles and one button wash and dry.
