Women and men will love this
If you've thought a bidet is for women only like my family did well you're wrong. Men will love this. It not only cleans you up, it drys you off too. And a seat warmer with this model, man that's going to feel good during those cold winter months. This unit is very well made and stylish too. It was so easy to install I think most anyone could do it in under 30 minutes. I did a little research and found out that they are very popular overseas and that 70% of households in Japan have these. A couple months ago I started having really bad arthritis cramps and pains in my fingers. It was getting harder and harder to hold and use toilet paper. This bidet solved that problem and I realized how much more sanitary it is to use one. So if you've ever thought about buying a bidet this one has everything you need at a great price. Other stores are charging $100 more than what I paid at Sams Club for this same model. I know you guys will appreciate that and after you've used it you'll want another one for the office. Thank you Sams and thank you Bio Bidet.
Design flaws-- needs work
I owned a Tushy bidet in the past, and decided to upgrade to this Bio Bidet Aura A7 Special Edition with air dryer. The price was right for all of these bells and whistles, and I really wanted to like this bidet. I've found it does work fairly well, but there are several design flaws that you should know about prior to purchasing that will prevent this from being the bidet of your dreams. Elongated toilets are awesome, and elongated toilet seats are great because they provide larger dimensions and greater room for your parts in the front. This bidet, while designed for an elongated toilet, takes away those benefits. Underneath that long-looking lid you see pictured above, a huge portion is covering the water reservoir in the back. The seat itself really only has a hole about 11.5 inches front to back. This would be forgivable if they had designed the front of the seat better, but unfortunately the front of the seat gets very thin. The seat is thicker and wider in the back for your bottom, but then gets very thin in the rounded front. This forces you to position the seat very forward for the front of the seat to align on the front of the porcelain toilet. It thus creates an unsightly space in the back between the bidet and the water tank of your toilet because the bidet is positioned forward so far. It also forces you to sit all the way forward on the porcelain toilet itself, forcing your front parts (for males) to rest against the porcelain. Other design flaws include: 1) this special edition does not appear to have an Eco mode like the standard Aura A7, 2) the water pressure could be stronger, 3) the dryer is not powerful enough to actually dry you fully, and 4) the dryer heats up and is positioned close enough to burn the skin on your bottom slightly (enough for discomfort). All together it is not a bad bidet for this price point, but I ultimately regret the purchase.

Great bidet!
This bidet has been a great addition to our bathroom. It has so many features to choose from. I am having some intestinal issues as a result from chemotherapy treatments and having this bidet has helped these issues. The unit itself is very sturdy plastic and does not look or feel cheap at all. I love the auto clean feature of the nozzle.
Excellent bidet - especially at $199!
I travel the world as an airline pilot and I first encountered bidet toilet seats in Japan over 10 years ago. I have been thinking about getting one for my own home ever since. I finally found one with all the features I wanted (adjustable strength spray, warm water, warm seat, oscillating nozzle, night light, etc.). And, it didn't cost the $600-800 that every other seat I had looked at with all of these features cost, it was only $199 at Sam's! The one small negative would be the seat itself could be a little more comfortable. All-in-all though, a fantastic buy.
Inevitable thing to live in the US
I installed the bidet yesterday, and did it by myself. It is so easy to install that took only about 10 minutes. Using bidet is not usual in the US, so I have never expected to meet such a nice one. One thing I am afraid about is it is a bit larger than the toilet, but still I can use it with satisfaction. Thanks.
Works as advertised. Fresh as a daisy.
Was in market for a smart bidet when noted this A7 special, Sams only, edition at an excellent price, cheaper than the redular A7. This one differs from the regular A7 in that it has the dryer function. There may be other differences but that was the one that stood out. The A7’s do not have a remote like the higher priced versions but I did not want one. Easy install. Directions excellent. Not much harder than changing the seat. Many YouTube videos on how to install bidets from this company and other if you find yourself in a bind, but you will not need them. Functions as expected. Very pleased. Makes more sense than dry toilet paper.
A7SE Low price with nice features
After searching for a good quality at reasonable price, I found the A7SE at Sam's club. The A7SE is not listed on the Bio Bidet web site, so I had to email asking for the manual just to compare against the regular A7, and the SPA4800 available at the other club. I was confirmed by Bio Bidet that the A7SE has all the features of the A7, plus the extra air dry. The reasons I chose the A7SE are based on the fixed panel (we don't like remote control) and the Sam's club price. I took me over two hours to have it installed, including wiring a new outlet. The installation is straight forward, but I did have some hick ups that took me longer than expected. It is up and running. Here are some things I experienced with the installation, and the usage of the bidet: - Installation: 1: The instruction should have shown the orientation of the plate, as it is not symmetric and could be installed backward. 2: The length of the bidet barely covers the commode seat. I had to push the plate all the way forwards in order to cover the bowl. 3: Snapping the bidet onto the mounting plate is not as easy as shown in the instructions. There are four braces/hooks that you have to line up before it snaps in. 4: I have a CF overhead lamp, the bidet is plugged into a newly installed GFCI outlet, and it keeps the CF lamp flickering. Other appliances plugged into this CGFI outlet do not cause the CF to flicker. Fortunately the outside light overcomes the annoyance of the flickering. -Usage: This unit sports all the basic features, plus the air dry for the SE version. I don't have any issues with the operations of the unit. However, this is the wish list that Bio Bidet could implement to improve user's experience: 1: The long strip blue light on the control panel: I expect it to be off when there is no activity, but it stays on day and night. Wish to have a dimmer or an option to turn it off completely. Same with other LEDs for the seat/water heater. 2: Wish the button are back lighted. 3: From the specs, the A7/SE draws more power than the SPA4800, but I am not sure if the listed power consumption is for the initial warm up or for the long run. Overall, this A7SE offers all feature we need and I recommend it. It did take a bit longer than expected to get it delivered. Sam's sent me a $10 coupon for first time online order, and if you use Discover card, it also add 5% cash back (make sure you go through Discover site first).
