We had a heated washlet system a few years my wife functionally liked but didn’t like the look and grew to dislike the concept. She was less than happy about my latest interest in the Slim Glow purchase. BUT when she privately tested it, she exclaimed it was her best experience with a washout system and immediately wanted me to order another one for her bathroom. She loves the system and is very happy with the way it looks when installed versus the expensive geriatric-looking one she hated years ago.  Happy wife, happy life ;-)
