Washlet users worldwide, according to TOTO's own product descriptions

Most people searching for a "bidet toilet seat" want one of two things: a seat that bolts onto the toilet they already own, or a full toilet with the bidet built in. This guide covers both. It compares the TOTO Washlet seats Bathify sells, adds the Brondell seats for buyers who want a non-TOTO option, and shows what a Washlet+ bidet toilet costs next to a seat.

Everything below comes from the product listings on Bathify, checked on October 12, 2026. Prices change with sales, so confirm the number on the product page before you buy.

One thing to check before you pick a seat: your bowl shape

Bidet seats are made for either elongated or round bowls, and the wrong shape will not fit properly. At Bathify, the TOTO A2, S7 and S7A are elongated and the TOTO KC2 is round. Confirm your bowl shape before ordering - our elongated vs round toilet bowl guide shows how to tell. If you are still deciding whether to switch at all, read our bidet vs. toilet paper guide.

Seat vs. integrated toilet
Bidet Seat or Bidet Toilet?

A bidet seat replaces the seat on a toilet you already own. A bidet toilet is a complete toilet sold together with a bidet seat. At Bathify, the bidet toilets are TOTO Washlet+ bundles: a Drake, Aquia IV or Eco Guinevere toilet paired with an S7 or S7A seat, built so the seat's power cord and water supply line are concealed. Here is how the two options compare.

Question Bidet seat Bidet toilet (Washlet+ bundle)
Cost at Bathify $381.99 (A2) to $1,613.99 (S7A, Sedona Beige) $1,727.99 to $2,574.99 with an S7 or S7A seat
What you keep Your existing toilet Nothing - the toilet is replaced
Power Needs an outlet near the toilet Still needs power; the cord is concealed instead of visible
Water Connects to the toilet's existing supply; mounting and connection hardware is included on the S7 and S7A Supply line is concealed; the listings say a wax ring, bolts and supply lines are sold separately
Look Cord is visible on most existing toilets Cord and supply line are hidden
Best when The toilet works and you want to add a bidet You are replacing the toilet anyway or want the cleanest look

Put another way, the toilet adds $448 to the S7 seat's price on the Drake 1.6 GPF bundle, $716 on the Aquia IV, and $1,034 on the one-piece Eco Guinevere. Premium TOTO Neorest integrated units sit above all of these; check each listing for what is included. Browse the full range in our one-piece toilets and toilets collections.

Buyer's Note

A seat sits on top of the bowl rim, so it adds height. If a household member has a height or mobility concern, factor the seat into your choice of toilet. Our comfort height vs standard toilet guide explains how rim and seat height work together.

Bathify sells every seat on this page, so you should know what this guide is and is not. It is a comparison of what each product listing states - features, bowl fit and price - checked on October 12, 2026. It is not the result of lab testing. Where a listing does not mention a feature, we say "not listed" instead of guessing.

What we compared Why it matters
Self-cleaning system EWATER+ and PREMIST appear on the S7, S7A, RX and SX; the A2 and KC2 list a self-cleaning wand

Premium tier · not a retrofit
Wall-Hung Washlet+ Seats: RX and SX

The RX and SX are TOTO's Washlet+ seats for wall-hung toilets, and they are the most expensive seats at Bathify. They are not retrofit seats: each is designed to work only with a specific TOTO T60 Washlet+ wall-hung bowl, and the bowl and in-wall tank are sold separately.

Model Price Shape Works only with Listing
Washlet+ RX $2,217.99 D-shape TOTO RP T60 Washlet+ ready wall-hung bowl (CT447CFGT60#01) View →
Washlet+ SX $2,439.99 Square TOTO SP T60 Washlet+ ready wall-hung bowl (CT449CFGT60#01) View →

Both listings describe PREMIST, EWATER+ wand cleaning, a heated SoftClose seat with five temperature settings, an automatic air deodorizer, a slim wireless remote with two user memories, and a concealed supply connection. The versions linked above are auto-flush ready. If you are planning a wall-hung installation, see our guide to wall-mount toilets first.

Another brand
Non-TOTO Option: Brondell Seats

Bathify also sells Brondell Swash bidet seats. They fill the price gap between the TOTO A2 and the TOTO S7, and all three come in both elongated and round. Listing facts only:

Model Price Heated seat Dryer Controls Also listed
Swash BL67 $249.99 Yes Not listed Side arm LED nightlight, stainless steel nozzle
Swash DR801 $449.99 Yes Yes Side arm Nightlight, carbon deodorizer, stainless steel nozzle
Swash 1400 $669.99-$699.99 Yes Yes Programmable remote Nightlight, carbon block deodorizer, dual stainless steel nozzles

The Swash 1400 is $669.99 in White and $699.99 in Biscuit. The Brondell listings do not mention EWATER+, PREMIST or an auto lid, so those remain TOTO-side differences.

Feature definitions
Feature Glossary: What Every Spec Means

TOTO's listings use terms that most buying guides never explain. Here is what the key ones mean, based on how the listings describe them:

EWATER+

TOTO's electrolyzed-water system. On the S7 and S7A, the listings say EWATER+ cleans the inside and outside of the wand before and after use and helps clean the toilet bowl upon departure. On the RX and SX, it cleans the wand before and after every use.

PREMIST

Before each use, PREMIST wets the surface of the toilet bowl, which TOTO says helps prevent waste from adhering and gives a better clean. It is listed on the S7, S7A, RX and SX. It is not listed on the A2 or KC2.

Instant warm water

The S7 and S7A listings describe an instant and continuous warm water stream that lasts as long as you need it. The A2 and KC2 listings give adjustable water temperature settings but do not describe how the water is heated.

Washlet+

Washlet+ is TOTO's concealed-connection system. Washlet+ toilets are designed to hide the seat's power cord and water supply line. The S7 listing says it fits standard elongated toilets and TOTO T20/T40 Washlet+ toilets; the S7A listing says it fits most standard toilets, including Washlet+ toilets with a concealed connection. The RX and SX are designed only for TOTO's T60 Washlet+ wall-hung bowls.

Auto open/close lid

The S7A's lid senses when you approach and depart, so it opens and closes without a button press. Among the TOTO seats compared here, only the S7A has it. The others have a manual SoftClose lid that closes slowly and quietly.

● ● ●
Find your fit
Which Option Is Right for Your Bathroom?
Buy the S7A if:

You want the auto open/close lid and the full S7 feature set, and you are happy to pay $125 more than the S7 in Cotton White. You have an elongated bowl, or you own a TOTO Washlet+ toilet.

Buy the S7 if:

You want EWATER+, PREMIST, instant warm water and a four-user remote but do not need the auto lid. Budget is about $1,280 for the seat.

Buy the A2 if:

You are trying a bidet seat for the first time, or equipping a guest or secondary bathroom, and you are comfortable with side-panel controls. Budget is about $380.

Buy the KC2 if:

You have a round bowl and want a TOTO seat with a warm-air dryer. Budget is about $460.

Consider a Brondell seat if:

You want to spend under $450 or want a remote-controlled seat in the $670-$700 range, and you do not need EWATER+ or an auto lid.

Consider a Washlet+ bidet toilet if:

You are replacing the toilet anyway, or you want the power cord and supply line hidden. Bundles start at $1,727.99. If you plan a wall-hung installation, look at the RX or SX with a matching T60 bowl and in-wall tank.

Before you buy
Before You Buy: Fit, Power and Height

TOTO's listings describe the Washlet seats as easy to install yourself. Before ordering, confirm these four things:

Requirement What to check Why it matters
Bowl shape Elongated or round A2, S7 and S7A are elongated; KC2 is round; Brondell seats come in both
Power An outlet near the toilet, and TOTO's installation guide for your model Electronic seats heat the seat and water, so they need power
Washlet+ toilet? Whether your toilet is a TOTO Washlet+ model The S7 and S7A listings say they work with Washlet+ toilets that conceal the cord and supply line
Height Toilet rim height plus the seat The seat sits on the rim; see the comfort height guide
💡 No suitable outlet near your toilet? Have a qualified electrician add one before the seat arrives. Do not run an extension cord to a bathroom seat. Check TOTO's installation guide for the electrical requirements for the model you buy.
● ● ●
Final Verdict

The S7 for most homes. The S7A if you want the auto lid. The A2 to start small.

For an existing toilet, the TOTO Washlet S7 ($1,279.99) is the value pick: per its listing, it carries the same EWATER+, PREMIST, instant warm water and four-user remote as the S7A. The S7A ($1,404.99) is the top pick if the auto open/close lid is worth $125 to you. The A2 ($381.99) costs about $900 less than the S7, but its listing does not mention EWATER+, PREMIST, a remote or a dryer.

If you have a round bowl, the KC2 ($461.99) is the TOTO option. If you want a non-TOTO seat, Brondell starts at $249.99. If you are replacing the toilet anyway, a Washlet+ bidet toilet starts at $1,727.99 and hides the cord and supply line.

Common questions answered
Frequently Asked Questions
Q
What is the best bidet toilet seat for most homes?
For a toilet you already own, the TOTO Washlet S7A ($1,404.99 in Cotton White at Bathify) is our top pick and the TOTO Washlet S7 ($1,279.99) is the value pick. The S7 listing includes EWATER+ wand and bowl cleaning, PREMIST, instant warm water, a remote with four user memories, a nightlight and a warm-air dryer. The S7A adds an auto open/close lid for about $125 more. On a tighter budget, the TOTO A2 is $381.99 and Brondell seats start at $249.99. Prices change with sales, so check the product page.
Q
What is the difference between the TOTO Washlet S7 and S7A?
The main difference is the lid. The S7A has an auto open/close lid that senses when you approach and leave, and its listing mentions auto-flush compatibility with a separately sold kit. The S7 has a manual SoftClose lid. Both listings include EWATER+ wand and bowl cleaning, PREMIST, instant warm water, five spray settings, a remote, a nightlight and a warm-air dryer. In Cotton White, the S7A is $1,404.99 and the S7 is $1,279.99, a gap of $125.
Q
Do I need an outlet for a bidet seat?
Yes. An electronic bidet seat heats the seat and the water, so it needs power. Plan for an outlet near the toilet and check TOTO's installation guide for your model's electrical requirements. If there is no suitable outlet, have an electrician add one before the seat arrives. Washlet+ toilets hide the seat's cord and water supply line, but the seat still needs power.
Q
Will a bidet seat fit a round or elongated toilet bowl?
Only if the shape matches your bowl. At Bathify, the TOTO A2, S7 and S7A are elongated and the TOTO KC2 is round. The Brondell BL67, DR801 and Swash 1400 come in both shapes. Check your bowl shape before ordering - our elongated vs round toilet bowl guide explains how.
Q
How do the costs of a bidet seat and a bidet toilet compare?
TOTO Washlet seats that fit an existing toilet run from $381.99 (A2) to $1,613.99 (S7A in Sedona Beige) at Bathify. Washlet+ bidet toilets that include an S7 or S7A seat run from $1,727.99 to $2,574.99, depending on the toilet. The Drake two-piece with an S7 costs $448 more than the S7 seat alone, and the Eco Guinevere one-piece with an S7 costs $1,034 more. The toilet listings also note that a wax ring, mounting bolts and supply lines are sold separately. Browse our one-piece toilets to compare.
Q
How long does it take to install a bidet seat?
TOTO's listings describe the Washlet seats as easy DIY installs, but the time depends on your toilet, the water shut-off valve and where your outlet is. Follow the installation guide that comes with your seat. Wall-hung RX and SX setups also need a compatible TOTO bowl and an in-wall tank, so plan those with your installer.
Q
What does Washlet+ mean and which seats work with it?
Washlet+ is TOTO's concealed-connection system. Washlet+ toilets are designed to hide the seat's power cord and water supply line. According to the listings, the S7 fits standard elongated toilets and TOTO T20/T40 Washlet+ toilets, and the S7A fits most standard toilets, including Washlet+ toilets with a concealed connection. The RX and SX are designed only for TOTO's T60 Washlet+ wall-hung bowls.
