Still raises seat back enough to create slight gap between seat and rim.
Thinner than most bidet attachments.
No manual nozzle cleaning option.
Dual nozzles or rear and feminine cleansing.
First, the GenieBidet’s basics:
This is a bidet attachment, not a full bidet seat.
There are two nozzles; one for posterior cleaning and another for feminine cleaning.
It has an automatic nozzle cleaning function.
Non-electric (uses only your home’s water pressure to operate).
It will fit virtually almost all two-piece toilets.
It comes in white only.
You will need a screwdriver and possibly a wrench to install.
The water pressure is controlled by twisting a knob.
Twist right for feminine cleanse, left for rear wash.
The nozzle automatically retracts after you finish using it.
One-year manufacturer’s warranty.
The Pros:
Solid brass t-adapter and ceramic valves.
This is something I have come to think of as required in a bidet attachment. GenieBidet are following the trend of providing slightly more costly bidet attachments that have much higher quality.
Striking looks.
The GenieBidet attachment is so different from other bidets in terms of appearance. It is thinner (about 1/8”) than most others and sports a minimalist knob as the bidet control.
If you want something that looks nothing like the other, mostly boring bidet attachments, there aren’t many other options.
Easy to install.
Like most bidet attachments, it will take around ten minutes to install.
Can be adjusted to fit nearly any toilet. GenieBidet uses adjustable plates with slots to ensure it will fit no matter the dimensions of your seat’s attachment (as long as it is a two-piece toilet).
Dual nozzles.
For around $40 at most vendors, the GenieBidet manages to impress with separate nozzles for rear and feminine cleansing.
An one-year manufacturer’s warranty.
The Cons:
No warm water option.
The GenieBidet AB-2000 is sleek to a fault. The minimalist design leaves no room for a warm water connection or control.
Could be an issue in colder areas.
Raises the back of the toilet seat up, creating a slight forward angle.
Despite being the thinnest bidet attachment I’ve seen, there is still a gap that is created after installing, despite GenieBidet advertising the opposite.
Not a big problem, as toilet seat risers are available and, honestly, the gap created is hardly noticeable once you’ve sat down.
Final Thoughts on the GenieBidet AB-2000:
Buy the GenieBidet toilet seat attachment if your primary concern (besides cleaning your dumper) is appearance. If you’ve looked at numerous other bidet attachments before arriving here, I’m sure you’ve noticed how they all look like siblings. The GenieBidet may lack hot water and a manual cleansing function, but it cleans well and looks fabulous.
Cold-water t-adapter isn't as good as hot-water metal adapter
Lever feels great
Attractive for a bidet attachment
First, the basics:
This is a bidet attachment, not a full bidet seat.
There are two nozzles; one for posterior cleaning and another for feminine cleaning.
It has a nozzle cleaning function.
Non-electric (uses only your home’s water pressure to operate).
It will fit virtually any toilet.
It comes with blue or white accents.
You will need a screwdriver and possibly a wrench to install.
Luxe Bidet says that everything required for installation is included, including tools. This means a plastic wrench. You might want a beefier steel one, but the included plastic one serves its purpose for the most part.
The water pressure is controlled by pulling a lever.
The nozzle automatically retracts when the bidet isn’t being used.
There is a splash-guard that blocks the nozzle and its housing from coming into contact with bodily fluids.
This can easily be opened to allow for cleaning of the nozzles.
Eighteen-month manufacturer’s warranty.
The Pros:
Very durable, high-quality construction.
With all of Luxe Bidet’s models, you can expect ceramic and metal valves which provide added longevity compared to plastic.
Lever control.
This could come down to personal preference, but I much prefer a lever to a dial. It’s easier to grasp and use, looks nicer and feels like I’m shifting gears in the Batmobile when I use it.
Can be adjusted to fit nearly any toilet. Luxe Bidet uses adjustable plates with slots to ensure it will fit no matter the dimensions of your seat’s attachment (as long as it is a two-piece toilet).
The nozzles automatically extend and retract and are protected by a splash-guard.
When you activate the water, the desired nozzle will extend and begin to spray.
When you stop the flow of water, the nozzle retracts, keeping it clean for the next use.
The splash-guard blocks the nozzles and their housing from the front and opens like a door so that you can easily access the nozzle itself.
An eighteen-month manufacturer’s warranty.
The Cons:
Plastic t-adapter for cold water connection can be very hit or miss.
A significant number of users reported leaks with the included t-fitting and needed to purchase a replacement.
Luxe Bidet really need to include two metal adapters instead of one.
I would recommend not chancing a leak that could destroy your floor if it isn’t caught early enough and buying a metal t-adapter along with the bidet.
Raises the back of the toilet seat up, creating a slight forward angle.
This can be slightly uncomfortable as well as a bit unattractive.
This is inherent in bidet attachments, however. Any other bidet attachment review is going to mention the same problem.
An easy fix is available, as most home-improvement stores offertoilet seat risersto increase the height of the front of the seat, so that it is level.
Final Thoughts:
With many shared features of other Luxe Bidet models, the Luxe Neo 320 has built upon a strong foundation. The lever action and hot water connection easily justify the price of the unit when compared to cheaper models. Also, what you’re buying with any Luxe Bidet model is solid construction and the support of an established company that takes customer support seriously. In my opinion, this is the best non-electric bidet attachment you can buy.
Stainless steel nozzle (looks nice and gives the impression of something that will last)
Oscillating (the nozzle moves back and forth for a more thorough cleansing without having to shimmy your bum around. Available for both rear and front cleaning by pressing the respective button twice)
Wide cleaning (this is just referring to the oscillating feature. Not sure why BioBidet has listed these as separate…)
Pulsating (same as the massage cleaning. I’m not sure why BioBidet listed these as two separate features. There is only a ‘massage’ button, nothing on the control panel suggests a hidden pulsate feature. Maybe just trying to pad their list of features?)
Massage cleaning (a rhythmic pulsating stream of water which is actually quite nice. As mentioned above, this IS the pulsating feature that is listed)
Satisfying posterior cleaning (yes, it is indeed satisfying)
Soft feminine cleaning (a more gentle cleansing from the front-most nozzle on the cleansing wand)
Adjustable nozzle (five different positions)
Nozzle self-clean (before and after cleansing)
Auto wash (20 seconds each of standard, oscillating and finally massaging sprays)
User controlled warm water (three levels of heat as well as the ability to turn it completely off(!))
Animated Response LED Side Panel (admittedly cool. Pulsates as cleansing is engaged and gives the toilet a futuristic quality)
User presets (two seperate profiles that save the wand position and pressure, although not the seat or water temperature)
Adjustable heated seat (three levels of heat as well as the ability to turn it completely off(!))
Night Light (a very nice, blue light that illuminates the bowl so you can easily find your way to the toilet at night)
Intelligent body sensor (a sensor on the seat that recognizes if someone is on the toilet or not. The toilet won’t function if nobody is sitting on it. Great for deterring kids from playing with the sprays)
Splash guard (this is simply the retractable nozzle which keeps soiled water from coming into contact with it)
Slow closing seat/lid
Quick release for easy cleaning (small switch on the side off the bidet enables it to be painlessly removed and then reattached)
Eco mode (sets the water and seat temps to low)
Silent mode (this refers to the beeps that are made when using the control panel. You have the option to turn these off)
Hide away hose clips (clips the water and power cables together and close to the unit to give it a cleaner profile)
Depending on your toilet shape, the lid may not be able to open fully.
The slick, one-piece look of the unit may have issues with some toilets. If your toilet tank curves outwards at all, or if you position the unit too far back, the seat might be blocked from fully opening.
BioBidet have a good guide on their website as to which kinds of toilets are compatible. A and B are ok, but not C.
Somewhat weird Amazon presence. I found their list of features misleading as some singular features were mentioned twice by two different names. This may or may not be intentional (I’d wager it was just along the lines of a typo), just a small gripe which might confuse your average consumer (it certainly confused me!).
If you aren’t concerned with a dryer or deodorizer, by all means, grab this bidet seat. It has all the essential functions such as hot water, an adjustable, self-cleaning nozzle and exceptional durability that you should look for. The bidet function itself works perfectly, the LED lighting on the control panel and the blue night light are nice touches, and it is one of the more stylish looking bidets (even outside this price range).
