Brondell Ecoseat model 101 - elongatedThis model replaced a Genie Bidet [ELONGATED] Self Cleaning Dual Nozzle installed in 2017. That Genie has several “issues”:- one of the two nozzles stopped working- the seat was uncomfortable after only a few minutes. The rear of the seat was higher than the front, so you lean forward slightly -- and the sitting area sides were obviously narrower than normal.- you couldn’t lean back on the seat back because it had a sharp ridge.- the Genie seat front was nearly 1" from the front toilet edge....The Brondell Ecoseat 101 has none of those problems.Pros:- the nozzles exterior is automatically rinsed when the dial is first turned.- both nozzles are correctly aimed and the cleaning action is effective.- the Brondell seat is level; the seating area sides are normal width; and it’s as comfortable for long periods as is a standard non-bidet seat.- the seat top looks appears as any good quality seat top and lowers itself slowly.- the control is a non-obtrusive dial. Off is in the middle.- the supplied stainless steel braided water hose, although far too long at 30", is high quality. I’m confident that it won’t burst and flood the bathroom.Cons:- The supplied tee fitting is stainless steel, high quality, and would be fine if was to be attached to a brass, bronze, or stainless 7/8" pipe from the toilet tank. However, if attached to the 7/8" plastic pipe at the bottom of most toilet tanks, it “grabs” only a few threads before bottoming out; which could strip or weaken those plastic threads when tightened.Instead of that tee, I installed a Bidet Valve (search on Amazon) with a plastic nut that grabs7 threads of a 7/8" pipe. That valve also has a lever which can shut off water to the bidet while leaving it on for the toilet (for bidet maintenance). No stars were taken off for the tee since I had planned to use a bidet valve from the outset.Other:- Turn the dial clockwise for one cleaning nozzle choice and the other way for the other cleaning nozzle. When you first turn the dial in either direction, water flows over the nozzles to clean them; next all water is routed to that nozzle, first slowly, then with force as you turn the dial all the way. I.e., you can control the water’s force by how far the knob is turned.Water pressure can also be lowered by installing a bidet valve where the water connects to the toilet and opening it partially, installing a pressure regulator on your main water line and setting it to 60 psi, or, lowering the pressure to 60 psi on the regulator you already have.- Bidet’s with a lever to control water to the nozzles might be tripped by a dog or cat when you’re not there, flooding your bathroom. Bidet’s with a round knob, such as the Brondell, don’t have that risk.- The supplied 30" stainless steel braided hose has 3/8" female compression fittings (3/8" comp) at both ends; a 5/8" open end wrench fits the nuts. 3/8" comp is a different size than 3/8" flare fittings and different than 3/8" NPT (National Pipe Thread) – i.e., the threads and diameter are different. Most bath and kitchen faucets use 3/8" comp or 1/2" comp fitting. The Brondell web site sells “replacement hoses” – select “Swash S101/102".- I was unable to find a shorter supply hose with a 90 degree elbow. Brondell should sell shorter supply hoses or at least a 3/8" elbow to attach to the bidet so that standard hoses could be used.- After-market bidets are available with dual (cold and hot) water inlets and temperature control or you can get a mixing valve to temper a cold water-only supply. Neither is practical unless your hot water heater is fairly close to the bidet, since otherwise it would take too long for hot water to get there. Actually, you get used to having unheated water spraying on your backside – it isn’t an issue once you get used to it.- The seat opening is 11" front to back (same as the Genie Bidet), versus 12" for a standard elongated seat. (Side to side opening is about the same, 8".) That doesn’t sound like much of a difference, but it’s noticeable, at least at first. If you want the largest possible seat opening, consider bidet’s that mount under an existing seat.- As with any product, if there is some defect, return it. E.g., some reviewers complain about the nozzle’s poor aim. Since they aren’t adjustable, send it back. Also, it is possible that too low a water pressure (if your home pressure otherwise, is OK) could be the result of a defect in the bidet’s water control valve; so return it if this happens.Install it right away, so you don’t miss the return window if there’s something wrong.Summary:The Model 101 is a solid choice for an after-market bidet, and it’s a significant step up from the Genie Bidet.
