Bio Bidet’s Newest Bidet -the Bio Bidet Slim Two is a Functional, However, Underwhelming Upgrade.
With the Slim ONE, Bio Bidet made a bare-bones, simple, ass-blasting device. It looked good, performed well and cost around $200.
Now, they’ve released the Slim TWO for nearly $300.
How exactly has the bidet evolved in it’s newest iteration and is it worth the additional cheddah?
How does the Slim ONE compare to the Slim TWO?
Well, I’d argue it should change its name to the Slim One and a Half for starters.
Read on to dig deeper into the Bio Bidet Slim TWO.
I have to admit, it does look nice.
The Bio Bidet Slim TWO is the Slim ONE with a remote.
That’s it.
While this isn’t a bad thing, and the Slim ONE could certainly benefit from a remote, I don’think the price is justified by such a meager addition.
Nonetheless, I still think this is a good bidet if you’re in the market for a relatively cheap option with a remote.
The Slim TWO’s chunky, nearly-square remote.
Let’s look at the Bio Bidet Slim TWO’s features:
The Bio Bidet Slim TWO comes with all the essential bidet features one would expect from an entry level bidet.
It has a heated seat and water, front and rear cleansing, a child mode, night light, an oscillating mode and a pulsating “massage” mode (ooo la la).
One interesting thing to note about the water heating system is that Bio Bidet was able to give the Slim TWO instantly heated water instead of a reservoir system.
This will allow the user to squirt squirt squirt that bidet until they’re absolutely sure no more lil turds are hanging out – all without fear of running out of warm water.
A feature like that is quite impressive in a $300 bidet.
It’s also unusual to find a pulsating mode in bidets at this price range, but it’s one of the things I like best about Bio Bidet, they include this feature on almost every one of their bidets.
If you have any trouble dropping the kids off at the pool, the massage feature works great for those of us who suffer from occasional constipation.
The Slim TWO shines through the night…. and the day if you forget to turn off the nightlight.
One feature that is slightly irksome for me is the nightlight. It isn’t automatic and there isn’t a clear button to press to turn it on and off.
In order to toggle the light, you need to hold down the + sign on the remote.
While this isn’t a deal-breaker, and I’d rather opt for this than no nightlight, it can be a bit annoying.
At the end of the day, though, I’m left wondering why the Bio Bidet Slim TWO costs $100 more than the Bio Bidet Slim ONE.
Bio Bidet even went so far as to copy and paste 99% of the Slim ONE product page on their website onto the Slim TWO page!
It’s the same bidet, for crump’s sake!
I don’t know why Bio Bidet had to have Kickstarter and IndieGoGo campaigns for this device (both of which raised ~$240,000 each) when all it is, is adding a remote to the same dang thing.
Ok, ok. I admit a remote is nice, but I would never pay $100 for the luxury of using one.
The $100 less expensive Slim ONE – with all the features of the Slim TWO
If you are in search of a value/budget bidet, I feel like VALUE is going to be your principal guiding force.
In that case, get a Slim ONE instead.
It looks nice, has all the same features, and is $100 (!) less.
