TOTO WASHLET S5 Bidet Seat vs Brondell Swash S300 Electric Bidet Seat

Buy the TOTO WASHLET S5 if you want a full-featured seat with a warm air dryer, automatic deodorizer, and a remote that docks to the seat. Buy the Brondell S300-RW if your toilet is round and you want the core comforts — heated seat, warm water, dual stainless nozzles — for less complexity. The TOTO is the better-built, more complete unit and its 4.7 rating from 374 owners backs that up; the Brondell scores 4.5 from 93 ratings and is the simpler, round-only option.

• Choose the TOTO WASHLET S5 if your toilet is elongated and you want a dryer, deodorizer, and docked remote in one unit.
• Choose the Brondell S300-RW if your toilet is round and you mainly want a heated seat and warm water wash without extra features.
