Brondell CS-30 CleanSpa Hand Held Bidet, Chrome

I've seen similar devices while traveling in India - - a practical alternative for personal cleanliness. I've only had this for a week but I really like it. Installation was straightforward -- normally I would do it myself but I was having the toilet replaced so I asked the plumber to do it. It uses the same water that supplies your toilet so it's not warm water, but here in California the city water is not really cold so it's perfectly ok. Eat the wrong food, or overly spicy food, and you'll pay for this device in savings on toilet paper in no time at all. (smile) ...... update after one month ... be sure to use the quick acting valve to turn off pressure to the hand spray when not in use. I don't think it's designed to remain under pressure as I noticed a very slow leak if I forgot to turn off the valve. Still love it 100%.

Received this much faster than estimated from Tool King. Everything was provided in the package to hook this device up in a few minutes.Each time before use, we move the sprayer to the sink while adjusting the water flow using the lever at the 3 way connector, then use the on/off button on the sprayer to shut it off until ready for use. After each use we shut off the lever at the 3 way connector and then release the pressurized water into the sink. Keeping the hose pressurized only as needed should make this device last a long time without any issues.Everything fits and works smoothly. Not sure why others are using Teflon tape on the threads because all 3 connections use rubber gaskets/washers to make the seal. When installed correctly there never should be any water trying to migrate through the threaded areas because the threads are there just to apply pressure to the rubber to make the seal.

So I have installed three of these bidet's. I haven't had a single leak (I did use teflon tape on most connections). The hose is extremely flexible and very hardy. The connections are metal and very well made. My only contention is that the spray head doesn't have a big enough head to compensate for the water pressure. The stream mode has a very thin stream so the pressure is a little on the high side. The spray mode again the little streams are again a little on the high-side.I would NOT PURCHASE this again because of the water pressure issue.Pros:Relatively inexpensiveEasy to installHas two modes of spraying waterCons:The water pressure is too high no matter how low I set it at the T connector

We bought this product ages ago and it's still in the box. My husband believes it would get water all over the bathroom floor. I bought this one because the control button is on the handle, not near the spray head, and it seemed sturdier than most of the others that are in our price range. Looks like we'll never know if it does the job or not. Sorry I couldn't give a real review of the product. I like its design and was impressed with the reviews of other people. No luck getting it installed though.

So, I was spending time in southeast Asia a couple of months ago my first thought about the lack of toilet paper was stark horror. After a few days went by, I realized I rather like this thing. It does, in fact, feel good, but more importantly, I don't think I have ever been so clean and ALL the time. It's funny how views change. I now see TP as an archaic and unnecessary step that doesn't quite do the job it should. Some of you know exactly what I mean (knowing look).As to the actual product performance, it is well made and the instructions provided make it very simple to install into your plumbing without much effort. My first use with it was a bit disconcerting since Asia doesn't have much in the way of water pressure. Thankfully, the fine thinkers at Brondell's R & D team figured out how to adjust the pressure. On the other hand, if you're also looking for a high colonic - it is made from stainless steel. Just sayin'

This bidet as not as good as the other ones in the same price range. The "ergonomic" button is not at all convenient in using like the other ones which just spring back when you dont press it any more. Moreover within one week of use, the button on the front side came off and water started spraying out of it. I tried fixing it back but it still leaks water.Apart from this, the assembly is also not as easy as others. This one needs a wrench and causes all sorts of problems while tightening. The one i used before i could assemble without any tools.I bought this as a replacement for the existing one that I had because after 2 years of loyal service it started leaking. While I was waiting for this one, I fixed the other one and so just kept this one for future use. That was my mistake, and now after using it for barely a week it started showing its character. Alas, I have passed the return date for it. Went back and ordered the original one i was using again.

Very happy with this bidet. I've used another brand for years but have never been satisfied with the quality. I love that the flow is adjustable because with the previous brand I could never get a strong enough flow. You must turn it off after each use but the valve is easy to reach. It will drip a bit if you don't turn it off at the valve. I also like the way you turn the flow on and off. It's much easier to control and doesn't depend upon a spring (which always failed on my previous brand).

I have waited for three months to write this review because some people stated it was not so reliable over time. In my case, it has been performing very well. I do turn off the T-valve after each use as someone here suggested. My mother has been using this product for 8 months and never bothered switching it on or off. I found that one stream mode works better for me then the sprayer. It is more gentle and the water comes out at room temperature.
