Did not fit swedish toilet had to return

I bought this Bidet on the recommendation of my son, but, while the unit comes with an installation kit the kit is different to what is required for installation in Australia. The “T” piece used between the original tap and cistern is a different size to the existing fittings, and I had to make up a fitting to do the Job.After receiving the bidet kit I realised my toilet seat was not compatible and so I bought the Luxe seat to go with the bidet. My body geometry means the aim of the bidet is accurate, and water flow and pressure is more than adequate to do what is required. I am very happy with how this thing works.

Ich hatte mir das Luxe Bidet NEO 185 Plus bestellt, doch leider stellte sich der Wasseranschluss als große Herausforderung heraus. Der mitgelieferte Adapter passt nicht auf übliche Anschlüsse wie 1/2 Zoll oder 1/4 Zoll, und es wird auch nicht direkt ein kompatibler Adapter mitgeliefert. Im Fachhandel konnte ich mit zwei verschiedenen Adaptern eine Lösung zusammenstellen, aber dann fehlte immer noch der passende Schlauch. Der zusätzliche Aufwand wurde mir zu viel, sodass ich das Produkt letztendlich zurückgeschickt habe. Für alle, die auf eine unkomplizierte Installation hoffen, ist dieses Bidet daher nicht zu empfehlen.

UK install. This has taken me ages to find the correct fittings to get this to work in the UK and all the Luxe websites state that it is a 1/4" water hose fitting on the bidet itself. I found it not to be that on the particular one i had but it is 9/16" x 24 TPI (Threads per inch). So I bought a brass reducer fitting that was 9/16" x 24TPI UNEF (Unified national extra fine) female and 3/8" BSP male that will fit any generic UK water hose no problem. From the photos you can see how i then plumbed it up to my water supply. This is no means of advice on what to do but it's what i did for my application and it worked a treat.

I first bought a Luxe Bidet Neo 120 ten years ago. Used it everyday since it's been great! Using just toilet paper now seems so primitive!For no particular reason, I recently looked over what other models Luxe offers and found the Neo 185 Plus. It looked like a great upgrade to the Neo 120. I was very pleased to see that many of the design limitations from the 120 were addressed in the 185. First off, water pressure regulation. The 120 had none meaning you had to be careful not to "power-wash" sensitive areas of your anatomy! New users to the bidet reliably used too much pressure resulting in a less than fun first experience! Sometimes, jumping off the seat, in surprise and in an act of self-preservation! The 185 limits the pressure to pretty much to the perfect level of intensity - even with the valve fully open. Since the 185 has the additional feature of the "feminine wash", my wife reported that the water pressure is well controlled meaning it is also well suited for the task.Other improvements. The mounting system is far improved with the hinge design which allows easier installation and positioning of the spray nozzle "aim". And the hinge design adds the welcomed feature of the entire unit tiling up for cleaning. This cleaning feature is also a great improvement over the design of the 120 where the only way to clean under the unit was to completely remove it which is totally impractical. The mounting hinges also have rubber inserts to prevent them from slipping on the shiny surface of the toilet.The valves feature smoother action and the control "pod" design looks more modern (I have the chromed handles). The spray nozzles have no flange on the bottom which potentially could trap contaminants. They also improved the "wash" feature - now it sprays water on the nozzles and on the down the front and rear of the nozzle splash shield. The adapter t-fitting is now made of metal instead of plastic which is also a big security improvement since plastic could fail/spit resulting in a flood. They also standardized the size of the fittings on the metal braided connection hose to 3/8″ x 3/8″. The only downside is the smaller plastic male threaded fitting on the bidet pod is potentially easier to cross-thread. So before installing the unit on the toilet, connect the flex hose so you can carefully monitor the angle of the nut tightening on to the fitting. I did not need to use the plumbers tape on this connection since flex hose has an o-ring on sealing surface.So the only problem...I have another Neo 120 that I want to replace it with a 185!Luxe should be proud of this product - they have put the time in and made pretty much every needed improvement to make this the best add-on bidet on the market!

Wie soll man ohne 3/8-Zoll Anschluss etwas mit Wasser anschließen in Deutschland? Auch das T-Stück passt nicht. Das hat auch nicht 16,7 oder 21 mm, sondern irgendetwas dazwischen. Ist das ein amerikanischer Anschluss??? Ich habe viel Zeit in Baumärkten verbracht, und das richtige Adapter-Stück zu finden. Ich bin nicht beidseitig linkshändig, sondern eher das Gegenteil. Sehr schade um den ganzen Aufwand und die Zeit.

Das Bidet ist leicht zu bedienen, der Wasserstral ist angenehm und nicht zu schwach.Das Luxe Bidet fühlt sich wertig an und ist leicht zu reinigen.Das größte Probelm, weshalb ich auch 2 Sterne abgezogen habe war, dass der 3/8" Anschluss dem Amerikanischen Standart entspricht, was in Deutschland nicht zu unserem 3/8" Standart passt.Abhilfe hat ein Adapterstück gebracht welches ich auf fittings-space bestellt habe.Wichtig ist, am Bidet ist ein 3/8" Compression (also der Amerikanische Sanitärstandart) während wir bei Sanitär BSPP (Britisch Standard Pipe Paralell) verwenden.Mit diesen Angaben lässt sich ein passendes Ersatzteil beschaffen.

Funcionalmente o Bidet é ótimo, nenhuma reclamação. Porém o adaptador que acompanha o produto vem no padrão para encanamento US. É necessário um adaptador para dividir a saída 1/2 em 2 saídas 1/2 e também um redutor de 1/2 para bitola da mangueira.Rodei por umas 10 lojas de material hidráulico até achar alguma que tivesse algum adaptador. Na descrição do produto menciona a medida de 3/8" para a bitola da mangueira, porem o adaptador 3/8 para 1/2 que é facilmente encontrado não serve, é maior que o necessário. Após muita busca encontrei o adaptador na mangflex em porto alegre , pelo que o vendedor disse a medida é realmente 3/8" mas para canos de cobre. Espero que essas informações ajudem futuros compradores a acharem os adaptadores com um pouco mais de facilidade.
