Kohler PureWash M300 Manual Elongated Bidet Toilet Seat, Chrome Handle, Quiet-Close Lid Prevents Slamming, Toilet Bidet, Easy Installation with Quick-Release Hinges, Self-Cleaning Wand

I installed two KOHLER Purewash M300 Non-Electric Bidet Seats for Elongated Toilets in White with Chrome Handles. They replaced the existing soft-close KOHLER toilet seats. The new bidet seats fit well with our elongated KOHLER toilets (Elmbrook / Ellison). This DIY upgrade was easy and well received by the family. Currently, the cold tap water works fine during summer, but concerns were raised about water temperature during colder seasons. It remains to be seen. Overall, it's a reasonably priced non-electric bidet with cold water. KOHLER currently offers two options for this product: handles in pure white or chrome only. A brushed nickel option would better match one of our bathrooms. Overall, 5 stars for the look, quality and functionality. --------------- The following are the installation steps I used to achieve better alignment and hose management. The order of these steps differs slightly from the installation instructions provided by KOHLER in their checklist. Hope you find them beneficial for your needs. 1. Connect the L-end of the white plastic hose to the seat. Tighten the connection as such that the hose goes backward and slightly lower in direction to go just under the water tank. 2. Connect the T-valve to the water tank. Ensure that the stem of the valve faces forward to meet the white plastic hose. 3. Connect the supply hose to the cross-bar of the T-valve. Tighten the connection as needed. Do not turn the water supply yet! 4. Make a whole loop with the white hose and then attach the straight connection of the hose to the T-Valve stem. The loop will help to hide the extra length of the hose just under the water tank. 5. Wipe out any water/moisture from the bottom of the water tank, hoses & connections, and from the floor. 6. Place a dry paper on the floor under the new water connection to easily detect leaks. I prefer to use blue shop paper towel but dry brown bag paper will provide high contrast and color change when wet. 7. Turn ON the water supply. 8. Leave the paper towel for a few minutes to confirm you’ve done it right and there are no water leaks. 9. To test the bidet, wrap the toilet seat with kitchen cling. Then test the knob in both directions (pink for front, and black for rear). 10. Enjoy.

I've had the earlier M250 bidet seat for two years, which started to leak after a few months. Kohler was no help and a repair was not feasible. Since I have a Kohler toilet, decided to try this newer model. The installation was straightforward, with the swap taking about 30 minutes, even for a 73 YO senior. The fit is perfect for my Kohler toilet and construction seems sturdy. I believe the new, simplified design will hold up better; will have to see over time. The controls are certainly easier and appears the self-cleaning wands will ease maintenance -- and having the front and back wand feature add to comfort. Although was disappointed in the first purchase, this seemed like a good choice, even with the many manual bidet seats from other firms available.

First time it broke after only five weeks of use. It literally had me slide part way off the toilet and onto the floor when just trying to scoot just a bit forward to get up. ~Ef you Arthritis~Pro tip: Don’t scoot. Fixed that problem until the replacement square attachment plate could be ordered from the only source available was from, from Kholer clear over on the east coast (Go Seahawks) Three weeks and $15 bucks later it arrives. Okay, here we go for round two. I kept my fingers crossed. I really, really don’t want to get under the toilet again to install another one. Alas I was left disappointed. I then had the shiny handle break off last week inside the bidet making it useless. Considering that I only bought it last year, I have to say I’m disappointed. I would avoid this overpriced over-engineered mess if I were you. BTW I tried to make it work because of the cost. Just don’t. Don’t do what I did and trying to polish a turd just leaves you with shiny bulseaat. I don’t have a problem with Kholar but did they even test this for people over 200lbs? When this broke I replaced it with the $35 stand alone version of the bidet from Kholar along with a $40 Kholar elongated seat. Seventy five bucks total and it is also so much more comfortable compared to this one piece POS. Notice a trend here?

The Kohler bidet is sleek, intuitive and fairly easy to install. Short story - if your existing toilet doesn’t have a fill valve w a brass gasket at the bottom, buy one before installing the Kohler bidet. That will make the job so much easier and allow you to start using this fine Kohler product in record time! 😆 Novella - I chose this Kohler bidet after dealing with a malfunctioning Brondell model, whose dial/knob broke not long after the one year mark. (They wouldn’t replace it, offered to sell me a new one with the warning that it likely would break again, and offered a courtesy 20% off coupon to purchase another via their site. Even a the coupon, Amazon beat Brontell’s price on its own product, so I decided to give Kohler my business.) However, I’m burying the lede! The Kohler model looks sleek, fits well, and seems simpler to operate. I did have some issues installing, mainly attaching Kohler’s T valve to the toilet’s gasket. After 3 tries, losing my religion and some passing tears, I called it a night and vowed to fight the good fight again in the am. Somewhere someone offered the incredibly helpful tip of installing a new Toilet fill valve with a brass gasket instead of plastic. Yes, it necessitated a quick trip to Lowe’s and about $15.00, but it was easy installing thanks to that tip. When trying to thread the Kohler T valve onto the plastic gasket, it would not thread evenly but kept trying to go on at an angle. Given that, a tight seal want possible, and it leaked every time I turned on the water supply. So, do yourself a favor before installing the Kohler bidet. If your existing toilet doesn’t have a fill valve with a brass gasket, buy one. It will make the installation process easier and less likely to spring a leak!

The Kohler PureWash M300 bidet came with all the adapters and fittings needed for installation, and the setup was easy. It fills a bit slowly since it uses a small line from your existing water supply, but it has worked flawlessly for over a year now. It’s nothing fancy, but it definitely does the job and has been completely reliable.

In my opinion, I don't think this product should be selling for over $100. Yes, it looks nice Yes, it fits good on the bowl, but there are a few things that I don' like: 1) The water pressure is not strong. 2) The plastic is easy to strip when installing the waterline to the seat. 3) The valve to secure the waterline was loose. I had to open it up and tighten the screws so it wouldn't wiggle. 4) To be a Kohler brand it sure is cheaply made.

Was chatting with a few friends and somehow the conversation turned to bidet seats. My friends who had them swore that they were absolutely fantastic and a must have in any bathroom. I thought they were crazy. After thinking about it for a while, I decided to get one to see what the fuss was all about. I did some research and this Kohler model came up as highly rated and the price was pretty good, so I bought it. The seat is very easy to install and comes with all the hardware needed. Everything was a very good quality and went together well. If I had one gripe, it would be that it's difficult to align on the toilet due to the fact that it has a separate bracket that installs apart from the main seat, so you really can't see how things line up until you slide the seat onto the bracket. However, this design makes it very easy to attach and detach for cleaning, if you ever needed to. The seat functions well and I like the fact that it has two separate cleaning stalks which work in slightly different ways to get you clean. Both cleaning stalks spray water with very accurate aim. There are a few types of Bidet seats, some which have heated water, and some that don't, like this one. Each has its own advantage. The non-heated models (like this one) don't require electricity and generally have more cleaning power since they don't rely on an internal pump for the water spray. Heated models are less powerful and require a power source, but they do have heated water, which some people might want. I was worried about this since spraying cold water on yourself might be a shock, but in reality, it's not a big deal and not worth the extra price / complexity of a heated model. Apparently, humans don't have a lot of sensitivity down there, so the cold water really isn't much of a shock. I'm really satisfied with how this thing works and it's a must-have in any bathroom.

I mean it’s not a authentic Italian bidet. But gets the job done. After living 4 years in Italy and moving back the USA . I needed a bidet version on my toilet and this gets the job done. So good buy , i recommend it.
