ALPHA BIDETEW GXR Wave Bidet Toilet Seat in Elongated White

Great unit

I’ve had a Tushy bidet attachment in our upstairs bathroom for exactly six months. I was sick and tired of our main floor bathroom being a toilet for peasants. I also didn’t want to run up a flight of stairs at 2am in the dark every time I wanted a superbly clean hiney. I asked my husband if it was cool to put a second bidet in — since he doesn’t particularly use the one upstairs because the Tushy we got is not the “spa” version. It’s ice cold. It’s like putting your bum in a York Peppermint Patty commercial because, brother, you’ll feel the sensation. Even with the Arctic chill forcibly power washing my nethers with a blast of water every time I go to the bathroom, I actually quite liked the Tushy.And then we installed the Alpha GX Wave this morning. It took more time to clean up the bathroom than it did to install. This f-er has a giant remote, seat warmer, an oscillating water gun for your bits, it recognizes when you sit down … and it hits my hole in JUST the right spot so I don’t have to fiddle with levers and switches to get a shining Good Housekeeping Seal for my pristine b-hole.The temperature? Golly. This is like going to the beach on the most perfect day. The heated fan? Like a gentle breeze when you’re exiting the water at that beach, rolling over your skin like a light cashmere sweater only it’s drying off your tuchis. By the gods, this is the finest bidet toilet seat in all the land. It is the alpha to my omega, and my omega is my butt.

We've had this for about two weeks now. After our old toilet seat broke we decided to give a bidet seat a try. There are so many to choose from! Basically, I was looking for something that had a good number of features (strong enough spray, front spray, dryer, etc) and was around the $200 mark. This seat has it all and then some! All I can say is I'm not disappointed at all with my purchase. The seat was easy to install, I think lining it up just right took the longest, but I had it all installed within 30 minutes and had no leaks, that includes a shut-off value I bought separately, just in case. As for operation, it works as I expected it too. I was worried that with the shut-off value the flow would be reduced and the stream would be weak but that wasn't the case. The water flow isn't blasting me off the seat but it's strong enough to get everything clean and that's the point, right? The dryer is warm and does an ok job, sometimes I run that twice and by the end of the second cycle, things are usually good. The controls are clear and easy to reach, I thought about going with a remote control type unit but with small kids, we decided something attached that couldn't get lost or used as a toy was probably a better choice for us. If I had to find a negative I'd say the seating area was a little smaller than we were used to, but that only bothered me for a day or two. Also, I find I have to shift around a little sometimes to get the spray in just the right spot but again, not a big deal and I imagine that's something you might have to do regardless of which seat you buy. The bottom line for me is that it gets everything clean, and it didn't cost a lot to do it! So hopefully between having to pump the septic less and using hardly any toilet paper, it will pay for itself eventually.7/16/20 FOLLOW-UPSo a year later still no complaints. I've found the shut-off valve was not a necessity for us, even with two Pre-K kids there have been no accidental sprayings! In fact, they are starting to use it now too, although I do find it isn't as effective for them as it is for my older child and the adults. One of the LED lights stopped working about 6 months ago but that isn't a big issue. I also found the seat doesn't seem to heat as much in the back, but I'm not sure if that's a failing or just where the heaters are positioned, again not a big issue for us. We will probably get one for the kids' bathroom soon, while I might not get this exact model I will certainly consider the brand.

Just installed. My Christmas gift. Still trying to figure it out. Water not very warm yet. Controls confusing but working on it because I want to love it. Looks good, comfortable seat. Will up grade review as I use it. UPDATE: Love it! I have intestinal issues and this bidet seat is a big help. Comfortable, convenient, pleasant, Efficient. Gets me out of the loo much faster and cleaner. We enlarged directions, printed and put into plastic sleeve until we are more familiar with controls.Update: 6 months later, still works great. We hate to use the other bathroom so are now estimating how to move an electrical outlet into guest potty room and install another Alpha for our guests and ourselves. Luckily, hubby is handy- can hook into electric on other side of wall. ++ 6 month update: love this even more and after 6 mos of regular use, no more hemorrhoids. It cleans the pockets which sometimes causes the problem. It has worked for me although I can’t say it would work for others unless their problem is the same. It was sort of painful on them at times but not now that they are gone and much to my surprise that they are gone. Guess I’ll continue my regular use so they don’t return.

I just installed this item today. I thought the instructions were fairly clear and it went well except for one issue. A cone shaped rubber washer that was included didn't work. The washer is used in the T valve that's attached to the toilet bowl. The first time I installed and tested the water I had I have a spray coming out between the T valve in the toilet bowl. When I disassembled the connection I found that this rubber washer had twisted. I tried it again and had the same results. I then went to a hardware store and purchased another rubber washer. When I used that washer I had success, no more leaks. See the attached photo. The washer looked like it should work and it apparently does on different toilets, but it didn't work on mine.As far as the operating function it seems OK, but I haven't really tested it well.
