When it comes to personal hygiene, one of the best bathroom utilities that you can get for your home is an electric bidet toilet seat. Since bidets have already been an accepted method of personal hygiene in Europe for hundreds of years, automated bidet toilet seats have been starting to catch on in the US during the last few years. Now, you might be wondering if these devices work and whether they’re worth the expense. Firstly, their main advantage is that they provide better comfort and cleaning than using standard toilet paper after using the toilet, thus making one’s personal hygiene better overall. In fact, some studies have shown that using a bidet is cleaner than just using toilet paper alone, and that goes especially for elderly people, because as people get older and frailer, it’s harder for them to do good personal hygiene. More importantly, the money you end up saving on toilet paper also means that the installation of an electric bidet toilet seat will fairly quickly pay for itself. So, if you’re consider getting your own electric bidet toilet seat, we’d recommend that you have a look at the SmartBidet SB-3000.
The SmartBidet SB-3000 is an electronic bidet toilet seat designed specifically for most standard elongated toilets that comes with all the necessary features to completely meet all the personal hygiene needs of men, women and children.
These include a Heated Seat with 3 Heating Levels, a Posterior Wash for his/her back, a gentler and wider Feminine Wash Stream for her front, and also a Child Wash, as well as a more powerful Spiral / Turbo Stream Wash that helps to stimulate bowel movement and relieve constipation, with all of these functionalities featuring on-demand and unlimited heated water.
Moreover, there’s also a 3-in-1 patented Stainless Steel Nozzle that automatically self-cleans itself before and after each wash, as well as a Warm Air Dryer and also an Automatic Deodorizer.
On top of all of that, this electronic bidet toilet seat also comes equipped with a simplified built-in Operation Panel at its right-side that even integrates a Backlit LED Nightlight for decent illumination during nighttime use. Last but not least, it also comes together with a Large Wireless Screen Remote Control for easily configuring and adjusting all of the SmartBidet SB-3000’s different functionalities.
Now, let’s have a more detailed look at the SmartBidet SB-3000, and talk a little more about each of its awesome features for personal hygiene.
DESIGN & SPECS
Starting with its size, note that this electronic bidet toilet seat is designed specifically to fit most standard elongated toilets. As such, the unit measures 20.9 inches long / deep, by 15.4 inches wide by 6.3 inches tall, and weighs exactly 10.3 lbs.
Regarding its design, like most automated toilet seats nowadays, the SmartBidet SB-3000 features a minimalist and ultra-modern design throughout its entire white body.
For its construction, this electronic bidet toilet seat features a very sturdy build overall, with its seat being built out of high-quality PP Plastic, which ultimately makes it extremely durable and incredibly stable.
In addition to that, the SB-3000’s Top-Lid also features a Soft Close functionality which prevents that common (yet unwanted) “SLAM” that you sometimes get with typical toilet seats when closing down your toilet’s lid too fast.
In all honesty, this is a really cool feature to have, especially for people that easily get distracted and end up not being too careful when closing down their toilet’s lid.
On top of that, if the SB-3000’s seat is heated, then having its special Top-Lid closed also greatly helps to contain that heat, which will basically help you to save energy whenever you’d require to re-heat the SB-3000’s seat in future toilet uses.
It’s also worth pointing out that the SB-3000’s seat also comes equipped a built-in Skin Sensor that can be turned on to automatically trigger the unit’s Automatic Deodorizer functionality.
Moreover, there’s also a 3-in-1 patented Stainless Steel Nozzle that’s designed to spray water vertically when using any of the SB-3000’s Water Spray Wash functionalities (discussed further ahead). This Stainless Steel Nozzle is built to be fairly durable and is also bacteria resistant.
More importantly, it’s also worth noting that its 3-in-1 patented Stainless Steel Nozzle automatically self-cleans itself before and after each wash. This basically works as an Inside-Out Nozzle Flushing System that makes the SB-3000’s Nozzle capable of self-flushing out any impurities through the drain slit on the nozzle’s underside.
Not only that, but its Stainless Steel Nozzle also comes equipped with a Replaceable Nozzle Cap, which provides homeowners with the option to remove the nozzle cap to clean it more thoroughly if necessary, or in last-case scenario, to use an additional cap for another user (such as an elderly person with bowl problems, for example).
Now, since this is in fact an electronic bidet toilet seat, the unit is powered by a dedicated Electric Cord, featuring 1400 Watts of Rated Power and 120 Volts of DC Voltage Power.
Lastly, note that the SB-3000 doesn’t require a warm-water supply in your bathroom for having heated-water when using any of its different Water Spray Wash functionalities, as the water used for those simply travels into its dedicated Water-Heating tank, where it then warms up to then be finally shot out of the unit’s Stainless Steel Nozzle as nicely warm water.
INTERFACE / CONTROL PANEL
Moving on to the SB-3000’s interface, meaning its dedicated Control Panel for its Water Spray Wash functionalities. As said before, this electronic bidet toilet seat also comes equipped with a simplified built-in Operation Panel that can be found pre-installed directly at its right-side.
Additionally, its Operation Panel also integrates a Backlit LED Nightlight that provides users with a very decent illumination during nighttime use.
It’s also worth mentioning that the unit’s Top-Lid also comes equipped with a built-in Operation LED Window Screen that conveniently shows a user whether or not the SB-3000’s three Trigger-Functions are in use, which include its Smart Skin Sensor function, its Energy Save Function, and its Power Function (On/Off).
When these Trigger-Functions are activated, their On Status is represented by a Red LED Light (one for each function).
NOTABLE PERSONAL HYGIENE FUNCTIONALITIES
Multiple Wash Modes
As stated earlier, this electronic bidet toilet seat boasts multiple Water Spray Wash functionalities that are designed specifically to completely meet all the personal hygiene needs of men, women and children.
These include a Posterior Wash function (middle waterhole) for his/her back, a gentler and wider Feminine Wash Stream function (bottom waterhole) for her front, as well as a Child Wash designed specifically for children.
Moreover, there’s also a more powerful Spiral / Turbo Stream Wash function (top waterhole), which is the SB-3000’s strongest water pressure functionality, working based on a bubble infusion wash technology that can help to stimulate bowel movement and relieve constipation.
More importantly, note that all of these different Water Spray Wash functionalities feature on-demand and unlimited heated water.
Automatic Heated Seated
The SB-3000’s seat is also designed to work as a Smart Heated Seat for each user’s extra comfort, featuring three (x3) different Heating Levels to choose from.
Warm Air Dryer
In addition to all of the awesome functionalities already mentioned, this electronic bidet toilet seat also boasts a Warm Air Dryer (located to the right of its Stainless Steel Nozzle) that provides users with increased comfort right after using any of the different Water Spray Wash functionalities available.
Note that the SB-3000’s Warm Air Dryer features a total of five (x5) different Adjustable Temperature Levels that can be easily configured according to your personal preference, meaning that you can choose to have it blow either warm air (for colder days) or cool air (for warmer/hotter days) for easily and very comfortably drying your private-parts.
Automatic Deodorizer
Last but not least, the SmartBidet SB-3000 also boasts an Automatic Deodorizer function, which, if enabled / turned On, will be automatically activated as soon the unit’s skin sensor is triggered.
THE WIRELESS REMOTE CONTROL
Coming together with this awesome and feature-packed electronic bidet toilet seat, there’s also an included Large Wireless Screen Remote Control that can be used for easily configuring and adjusting all of the SmartBidet SB-3000’s different functionalities.
This full-sized wireless remote control is fairly easy to grip, and comes equipped with a built-in display screen at its top-side that makes it easy to read all of the adjustable settings for the unit’s different function.
To be a little more specific, via the unit’s dedicated Wireless Remote Control, users can fully-customize the temperature and pressure of both the water and dryer functions, as well as all of its nozzle’s different functions.
Note that the unit’s dedicated Wireless Remote Control always counts down whenever you use one of its personal hygiene functions, and also chimes whenever you press any of its buttons.
After configuring your preferred settings for the SB-3000’s different functions, your chosen settings will immediately become the SB-3000’s default settings.
Best of all, this electronic bidet toilet seat also comes together with a magnetic remote mount that can be mounted beside your toilet to conveniently store its dedicated Wireless Remote Control when not in use.
SET-UP / INSTALLATION
On a side note, we’d also like to point out that the SB-3000 also features a DIY (Do-it-Yourself) installation that’s fairly easy to follow thanks to the package’s included Installation Guide.
As a final reminder, since the SB-3000 doesn’t require a warm-water supply for having heated-water when using its different Water Spray Wash functionalities, once you’re done attaching the seat to your toilet, you simply have to connect the SB-3000 to your bathroom water supply during its installation and that’s pretty much it.
