Brondell
Brondell Swash SE600
A zombie best-seller: Brondell officially discontinued the SE600 (its successor, the DS725, has itself since died), yet it's still stocked at Amazon, Walmart, and Home Depot and still tops Amazon's bidet-seat charts on price-per-feature. For roughly $270 you get a wireless remote, heated seat, warm-air dryer, deodorizer, night light, and oscillating stainless nozzle — a feature list that embarrasses $400 seats, attached to a tank heater and a warranty clock that's already ticking on a dead product line.
Specifications
Features
Pros
- ✓The most complete feature list under $300: remote, dryer, deodorizer, night light, heated seat, and stainless nozzle — Brondell's own LE99 at the same street price drops the deodorizer
- ✓Wireless remote with programmable user settings, a luxury normally reserved for the $479 Swash 1400 tier
- ✓Discontinued status means constant clearance pricing — Slickdeals ran it at $236 in July 2026 and it's dipped to $199 at Home Depot
- ✓Oscillating stainless-steel nozzle with five positions and pulse massage — same wash hardware as seats $150 up-market
- ✓Automatic carbon deodorizer engages when you sit, a feature the SE400 and entire LE line omit entirely
- ✓Cool-blue night light plus one-touch Auto Mode make it a favorite for aging-in-place bathrooms per owner reviews
- ✓Four thousand-plus owner reviews and years of field history — no surprises left in this platform
- ✓Genuine 30-45 minute DIY install with a standard 7/8-inch tee; the remote means no arm panel eating alcove width
Cons
- ✗Officially discontinued — Brondell replaced it (with the DS725, now also dead), so warranty service and parts get harder every year; buy knowing you're on your own after year one
- ✗The tank gives roughly 30-60 seconds of warm water before cooling and needs a recovery wait — the CL1700's instant heater at the same price never quits
- ✗Maximum pressure is gentle; thorough cleanups take longer than on a Bio Bidet BB-1000, the standard r/bidets complaint about this seat
- ✗The five-level dryer is slow enough that most owners finish with a square of paper anyway
- ✗Owner reports of seat cracking and valve failures conveniently clustering just past the 1-year warranty
- ✗Some users notice a faint chemical smell from the deodorizer rather than true neutralization
- ✗The rear tank hump keeps it chunky by 2026 standards — Brondell's Thinline seats exist precisely because of profiles like this
- ✗Hard-water buildup degrades the tank heater over time; no descale mode, so soft-water homes fare noticeably better

Brondell Swash SE400
Brondell's mid-range tank-heated seat and the side-arm sibling of the remote-control SE600. You get the full comfort stack — heated seat, warm wash, warm-air dryer, night light, oscillating stainless nozzle with pulse massage — minus the remote and deodorizer, run from an arm panel at your hip. Walmart lists it at $299.99 and it routinely streets $250-280, undercutting Brondell's own LE99 when the LE99 isn't on coupon. A proven 2017-era platform, not current-generation engineering.

Brondell Swash LE89
The side-arm sibling of the Swash LE99 we track — same current-generation platform: hybrid tank-plus-instant heating for an extended warm wash, heated seat, five-level warm-air dryer, blue night light, and a stainless nozzle with a genuinely strong wash mode. What you give up versus the LE99 is the wireless remote and saved user presets; what you save is $50-75 at street, with deal sites like Woot flushing it out at $169.99. No deodorizer anywhere in the LE line.

Brondell Swash CL1700
Brondell's Costco-exclusive luxury seat — you won't find it anywhere but Costco stores and Costco.com, currently $249.99 after an instant discount off the $399.99 regular price. It's essentially a cost-reduced Swash 1400: same instant ceramic heating with endless warm water (hot in about 10 seconds), programmable remote with two user presets and a dock, warm-air dryer, carbon deodorizer, and night light — but a single stainless nozzle instead of the 1400's dual wands, and a 1-year warranty instead of three.
