I wanted to buy a bidet seat for my over 80 year old mother after she appreciated our earlier version Brondell seat. This one has all the features she needs without having to pay more for what one really does not use. We wanted the ability to adjust stream flow and heat levels which are easy to do with this model. The item none of us cared about was the air dry feature. Frankly, using toilet paper shows you are clean and is much faster. The remote is easy to use and read and can be attached easily where an older person does not have to twist to use it. We attached ours to the pedestal of the sink next to the toilet where it is easy to reach. We try to be eco-firendly and really like the on-demand water heater feature which saves energy by only heating as needed. The warm seat has been a huge benefit because with the cold winter this year it allowed her to save energy by reducing the temperature of the house. We really like the stainless steel arms which are easy to clean and better than plastic models. The Brondell line is based in the USA and has a reputation for quality which works well for us. We have an earlier version which we have had over one year and it works without a hitch; we only had to replace the batteries on the remote once. The seat closes gently so she only has to start the process and not worry about banging the lid down. The look is subtle and sleek so one really does not notice it is that different from a regular toilet seat. When my mother-in-law visited she liked it so much, we bough a second one for her.
We highly recommend this brand and this model in particular as a great value for the money.
