Review on 🚽 TOTO SW2043R#01 C200 Electronic Bidet Toilet: Cleansing Water, Heated Seat, Deodorizer - Includes Warm Air Dryer & PREMIST Technology - Round, Cotton White by Chuck Derrick

Revainrating 1 out of 5

In short: a completely bad installation experience that will most likely crash. Make. no Buy.

Returned after a full week of trying to fix the T-valve fittings. I have a high opinion of the Toto, but I can't justify spending $420 to buy something with an obvious installation error. I can't even rate a product based on actual usage when I've been through so much heartache trying to install it. 1/2" side hose connection. Most US toilets connect with a 7/8" female ball valve and 3/8" female pressure line (wall side). See other comments, in who are talking about metric threads. Yes, it's one thing. While this isn't a clear deal-breaker, it does make a difficult attempt at installation difficult. Hose Kit, THU9090R), Female 7/8" and MIP 7/8" Male Threaded Ball Valve. Alternatively, you can try finding a 7/8" MIP to 3/8" compression/male adapter. Rather than looking for such a valve online or at hardware stores, I highly recommend forging your search or machine shops. There is no such combination of adapters. What they could do was simply install a 3/8" x 3/8" tee to their custom 1/2" hose fitting. That would solve the problem nicely. I've tried to find my own tee in these sizes (which really isn't too much of a hassle) but due to the construction of the bidet hose it's hard to find anything that fits. Now my apologies I have to return all the other parts I bought to try it out.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Requires an outlet
