This product is very well made. I really like that you can adjust the water temperature so it doesn't literally freeze your you know what off. It definitely required additional fittings but I was able to find them at the local hardware store. I’ll add photos. The one thing that was a bummer is that it didn't come with a template to drill the holes. I was able to install this into the side of the bathroom vanity since its close to the toilet. I originally used teflon tape on the brass fittings but it leaked so I ended up taking the connector fitting off and using pipe dope thats NSF 61 compliant for potable watet systems also available at your local hardware store. Once I got all the fittings nice and tight I let the pipe dope to set up for about 1 hour. I then assembled the bidet sprayer into its final location and it fit like a glove and it functions perfectly with no leaks. Ill include pictures of all the fittings used along with a picture of the templete. I recommend it just put together your game plan together before you start cutting and drilling away! hope this helps.

This unit has some nice features. Here on the Canadian border hot water was a must. The temperature/flow adjustment is very simple and easy, similar to the single-lever kitchen faucets. The button on the spray head is great: push once and it stays on until you push it again. Installation was a little tricky in an old house with thicker walls. My wall was 1" thick (metal lath + cement plaster + tile). I didn't realize until after I got it in that it's designed for a thinner wall ( < 5/8"). Mounted behind the 1" wall the trim plate didn't leave room to attach the hose, so I had to leave it off. I plumbed it with 3/8" PEX tubing so the hot water would arrive quicker from the basement, which worked well. Next time I would mount it outside the wall and make a box to hide the workings, or in the side of a vanity cabinet, or behind 1/2" or 5/8" drywall. The main thing is my GF is thrilled with it, even without the trim plate. I will definitely install more of these. Note: After one week of service, the plumbing attachments started leaking (see photo). Advice online had led me to use American (NPT male) fittings screwed into the female straight G-thread. I used plenty of pipe dope, and it didn't leak at first. It turns out the main casting cracked where the male NPT elbow screwed into the female BSP hot water inlet (see photo). I tried BSPxNPT adapters, but the cracked casting still leaked even with lots of pipe dope. I finally solved the problem by soldering the adapters into the casting (I took it apart first to avoid overheating the rubber parts). The adapters were hard to find, expensive, and took a week to arrive. I think NPT adapters should be included in units sold in USA. The unit itself is great, and I will install another.

In the United States, the bidet concept is slowly becoming more familiar, but it’s still not as common as in other parts of the world. As a Muslim, I use a bidet or water after every use of the toilet, so finding a practical solution was important to me. The main challenge here is that most bidets only connect to cold water, which can be uncomfortable in colder climates. While remodeling my bathroom, I discovered this stand-alone bidet that allows you to mix hot and cold water, and I decided to give it a try. In terms of construction, the build quality is acceptable but not top-tier. It’s not made with high-end brass or aluminum — more of a mid-range quality. The durability of the internal valve system is uncertain since I’m used to fixtures from premium brands like Moen or Delta, which this doesn’t quite match. That said, the main mechanism works well. Once you set the hot and cold water mix, you don’t have to constantly adjust the shower valve, which makes it convenient for daily use. However, the biggest downside is the shower head that comes with it. It’s a push-type design, and mine started leaking within just two weeks — something I noticed other reviewers mentioned as well. I replaced it with an aftermarket shower head, which works fine now, but it was disappointing to have that issue at this price point. Overall, the main system and piping are functional, and the hot-cold mix feature is a real advantage for cold-weather regions. But the included shower head is poor quality and likely to leak, so plan on replacing it. If you’re comfortable doing a small upgrade later, this bidet is a decent option and one of the few available that offers both hot and cold water mixing.

Push button gets loose often.
