VOVO VB-6000SE Electronic Smart Bidet Toilet Seat

 

I bought this to go in the main bathroom to make life easier for my wife who has severe peripheral neuropathy (affects balance and coordination). The holes in the toilet pan turned out to be too far apart for the seat fittings, so it went into the en-suite instead. I had to provide a fused spur outlet and a new cold water feed to be able to connect up the Bidet/Seat but the fittings provided are high quality and this was not a problem. I used the double sided tape to fix the remote as it had to go on a mirror tile, but that worked well. The functions of the seat are brilliant – it makes such a difference. We use a fraction of the toilet paper we did and there is much less risk of soiling transferring to hands. Overall absolutely sold on the improvement in personal hygeine, so much so that a couple of months later I bought a complete toilet replacement for the main bathroom (The Vovo Stylement) which is even better as it has a very good (airline style) flush system, an effective deoderiser and automatic lid.
The only downsides I have found are the remote control writing is too small to read without glasses, so I used a marker pen to add B, F, and D (back, front and dry) to the buttons. As someone noted, it is easy to knock the remote off its holder, so I also added a perspex wrap around cover, which has resolved this.
Overall highly recommended

 

Customer service are the best ever! The seat and their service are so good I just want to keep buying these seats, just incase no more ever! :'(

The Fan is good, deodoriser really works&Def worth paying that Bit more, water instant warm, pressure is fantastic, why anyone says it’s not??

No complaints, why anyone could? Packaging was brilliant, product was quality everything from the instructions(laminated) to the fittings.

It was easy, painfree(apart from my own pipework). Followed instructions, only I put metal lipped bracket wrong way up so seat moved. Turned other way &sturdy as our Bemis.

The fittings for this are good quality & better than other seats. They proved 2 different bracket fitting options, 1for normal loos,screw attachments& 1 for hidden loo,where can’t access bolt hole underneath. Where a plug in bracket included.

The only problem I had, was my pipework was rigid&angled,so I had too move the actual flusher in cistern, up out way to get the t attachment on. Then screw cistern flush attachment back.

Did take little while for my brain to think what to do with this. I did also stupidly try to remove the bottom main nut from pipe,(what idiot wondered y not coming away, glad it didn’t gulp)so please don’t touch your main pipe nuts etc..as if you would.

Anyway was all simple pipe to loo seat, plug in & way to go.
The lid is not rigid, but it’s strong, though I put pressure on it tightening the bolt behind the Pipework& the seat lid made a scary I’m going to break noise, lucky thankfully didn’t.

So no pressure on it please. As because it moves each side up down, it has play, it’s not going to support a solid mass on it.

I can’t see it breaking although at first I thought was really low quality and would it’s not really tbf

The seat is thick no probs there . The only thing is the hole to the bowl, where your wee etc goes, is rather small compared to UK loo seats. So it’s noticeable at first, and tad squashy, (I’m not huge, obese,but yes I am not a slinky either).

So everyone has noticed the smaller hole &men have noticed there private area nearly touching the bowl, 1 is is bless it’s nothing to do with the seat positioning, it’s perfect. But no one really complained about it not working for them.

I do at times struggle to get the water position right, so I’m not sure it’s really designed with us Brits in mind. But you get it to work for you, no problems. Though I get water sprayed on back seat a lot. And have had shoot out the front.

However it’s a life saver for 2 family members, with severe M.E. who went through hell& sheer exhaustion& time, trying to clean themselves. Made them crash a lot& loo 2 was a burden& misery..

Not anymore, it takes mins to get to the stage took hour+to reach, as they have to have breaks between wiping due to fatigue & exhaustion, from doing the loo& trying to clean.

So this is a godsend & also for member family, has problems with no 2, the turbo mode , got them from severe pain, to needing ambulance, thinking it’s kidneys,to sigh of relief, messy loo.

So this is extremely important for disabled people. It’s brilliant &so.are the sellers they are astounding service after care. Xxxx love love love love love. Xxx

 

We’ve had it a week, so novelty value is still significant and obviously can’t comment on durability. However, It’s great. Falls into the sliced bread category of best things. Feels like a sparkling ring of confidence previously only seen in a toothpaste advert. Such a huge improvement on smearing life’s unpleasant stuff around the unmentionables with paper that frankly has never been quite up to the job. The rest of the world can panic buy as much as they like. Ok, on a more serious note: it’s a lot more robust than anticipated, being a big guy, that’s important. The air dryer works, but it’s not it’s strongest feature. It’s like the old fashioned public toilet hand dryers. They will do the job if you hang around long enough. Having said that, the water direction is so precise, very little gets wet. Maybe an insurance dab with the toilet paper when wearing powder pink, skin tight trousers and no undercrackers. It’s tempting to try to speed things up by increasing the heat to level 3, but trust me, don’t go there. Level 2 is plenty. Speaking of lights, I don’t really get the LED bowl illumination. I like lights that highlight features of a room but the contents of a toilet is, in my book, not really a feature worthy of accent. Useful for those that wish to examine their bowel contents, I suppose. It’s summer time so the heated seat is yet to earn it’s crust. I’m surprised how quickly everything heats up. Even the water heats quickly. The bad points: As toilet seats go, it’s expensive, but comparable to a year’s supply of toilet paper for a family if 4 putting marginal electricity costs aside. The value of a squeaky clean bum is priceless, so it’s well worth the outlay. We went for the non fragrance version which is currently about 100 extra. The morning bathroom queue is now longer. The wash times-out when it’s done it’s thing, but it’s too tempting to give other features a go. Curiosity got the better of me and I admit to trying out the lady bits setting. It’s not a sleek look on our standard toilet. Looks a bit like a ‘Peaky Blinders’ over-sized flat cap. Would look much better on a modern toilet. It’s on the list. It needs plumbing and electrical skills for installation. Plumbing is dead easy if there’s a flexible hose water connector to a low level close coupled WC. In a separate WC, fitting a power socket is likely fairly straightforward, but if in a room with a bath or shower, it’s a totally different ball game and not really a DIY job. I’m sold into the digital age of intimate washing. I’d never go back to the paper system.
