Recommend bidet?
This would be our first bidet. Any recommendations? I see a few on Costco.ca under $100 and wondering about quality and cleanliness. I'd like something easy to use and clean. Don't need heated.
TIA

I've tried both an add on that goes between your existing toilet seat/toilet, and recently installed a toilet set with integrated bidet. Add on ones in the sub $60 range all work pretty much the same. Cleaning is a little annoying since there will be multiple seams where things get seep in, especially if you have people with bad aim. Gotta get the brush around the sprayer as well which takes a little more effort. Something to watch out for is the type of toilet and toilet seat you got. They usually have their measurement requirements listed so you can measure your existing toilet to see if the holes line up. Thickness is another thing to consider, is there enough space between the seat and the toilet, that depends on the type of seat.
Recently my "add on " type bidet broke, decided to try a toilet seat with integrated bidet. Its a thicker seat so you sit higher, so might not be the optimal position to " do your business" if you're sensitive to that. The toilet area is more stream lined so I feel it's easier to clean.
The one I got off amazon is .. link : https://a.co/d/9jH6ny9 Some say Costco occasionally has it as well. Pay attention to what type of toilet you have.. rounded or elongated if you decide to get a seat/bidet combo.
As for effectiveness of the device, yes it works well cleaning your behind after you're done your business. Especially in the summer months....

The Brondell unit linked by @coilz looks like the one I usually see at Costco.

We’ve had the same Brondell ones in 2 bathrooms for at least a year or two. Easy to install and use. Turn the dial forward or back, either spout will find the target without you needing to shift, you’ll get used to how far for pressure and how long you leave it on, the cold water isn’t bad at all. It’s completely cut toilet paper use to just drying at the end. Honestly life changing, should have got one years ago and we do not feel as clean using a toilet without a bidet now.

If you’re going to spend 130 dollars. Mind as well go with the plug in ones. It is godsend when sitting on the toilet first thing in the morning and not have your thighs cold. Warm toilet seat in a cold winter mornings is the best. Especially when you don’t always heat the house every night.

The most loved feature of the bidet is the heated seat... Every time I travel I miss it at hotels. I have the Totos.. not cheap but they work well.rfd4life4ever wrote: ↑ This would be our first bidet. Any recommendations?

Wife bought us a clean touch 2100r for Christmas.. I have only ever once used a bidet visiting Korea back in 2002 or so.. so really new at this without much to compare to.. we love it though.
$300
Heated seat
Heated water
Easy install
I don't think I would go without one again... I try and save business for the home field advantage now..

Is the one we have.. again maybe better but nothing but positives from me.

Bidet mates.... (Spoken like Paul Hogan)
Am likely going to be looking around for a deal.
My Costco.ca purchased Bio Bidet A8 Serenity has stopped spraying.
I took it apart - looks like something corroded next to reservoir, so must have been a leak.
Not having luck finding any repair info.
Does anyone know what Bidets GTA Costco's are carrying?

I suggest reaching out to Bio Bidet, they're pretty good with warranty. If they can't help you then personally I would return it back to Costco.shikotee wrote: ↑ Bidet mates.... (Spoken like Paul Hogan)

It has had about 4+ years of use.
Bio Bidet is fairly infamous for how crappy they are outside of warranty.
Impossible to get parts - they want you to buy a new one.
