Selecting the best bidet for an American Standard toilet may seem tricky, but in reality, it’s not as hard as you might think. Firstly, the key is to match your American Standard model to the right bidet. In most cases, bidets are available in elongated models or both elongated & round. That’s the first step.
Secondly, the only time you’ll really run into any issues is when you’re trying to install a bidet on a one-piece toilet. Because of the curved shape of the toilet, you may run into problems during installation. Essentially, you want a toilet that has a 90º angle where the tank meets the bowl.
A couple of common American Standard models that are compatible with most bidets are the Champion and Cadet toilets. The goal of this article is to introduce you to your best options and share some helpful tips to get you all set up. First, let’s start with an overview of your best options with the key specs to consider.

Reviews: Best Bidet for American Standard Toilet
As you can see, American Standard does manufacture its own bidets. For this reason, your safest bet might be to keep it in-house to ensure compatibility. However, the only drawback is that American Standard bidet seats are made for elongated toilets only. If you own a round toilet, you’ll want to consider the options by Brondell and Bio Bidet.
In the following sections, I cover each seat in greater detail to give you a clear idea of what each model offers. By the end, you’ll be well on your way to achieving bidet bliss in your home.
#1) American Standard Advanced Clean 3.0 Electric SpaLet Bidet Seat With Remote Operation
For the ultimate luxury experience, the Advanced Clean 3.0 is American Standard’s highest-end model in its SpaLet lineup. Comparatively, the Advanced Clean 3.0 SpaLet offers a lot of the same that you’d find on the best Toto Washlet. In fact, since Toto has been in the bidet game longer, American Standard appears to have taken a few pointers from Toto during its design process.
Firstly, this bidet features a dual-nozzle design for effective front and back cleaning, making it a good choice for feminine needs as well. Secondly, on-demand warm water means you’ll never need to worry about being splashed by cold water during the winter months. Third, this bidet has just about every luxury feature you’d expect from a top-notch bidet.
You’ll find everything from an adjustable warm air dryer to an adjustable heated seat to a pre-mist function. Lastly, the one-touch button seat removal makes removing and cleaning this bidet a breeze. Additionally, American Standard backs its bidets with one of the longest warranties for residential use.
- On-demand warm water
- Adjustable heat on the warm air dryer and heated seat
- Pre-mist bowl function to prevent remnants
- Self-cleaning dual nozzles
- Slow-close seat to prevent slamming
- Designed to fit American Standard elongated bowls
- One-touch power saver mode
- Competitive warranty
- No night light
- No auto open/close lid
- Elongated only
#2) Toto K300 Washlet Electronic Bidet Toilet Seat
In most cases, Toto is the first place you want to look when shopping for a bidet. Each bidet in the Toto collection delivers value for the money because Toto is the leader in bidets. With that being said, the K300 offers the most value for the money in the Toto collection. It’s not quite on the level of the Toto S550e, yet it does bring the most coveted luxury features to the table.
Firstly, you know you’re getting enough pressure to completely eliminate the need for TP when you invest in a Toto Washlet. Oftentimes, attachments and inferior seats may still require a wipe or two to get a complete clean. You won’t find that here. Secondly, this model features everything that the Advanced Clean 3.0 features for a much better price at the time of this writing.
In reality, as long as you don’t have a one-piece American Standard toilet with a curved back, the K300 will fit. If you’re unsure whether the K300 will fit your toilet, use this helpful fit chart supplied by Toto to get your measurements. This way, you’ll know for sure whether your toilet is compatible. Finally, one area where Toto does fall short is in its warranty department since the 1-year limited warranty does not match other manufacturers.
- Better value for the current cost compared to the Advanced Clean 3.0
- Includes the EWATER+ system for a more hygienic bowl
- The wand is fully concealed when not in use
- On-demand warm water
- Adjustable heat dryer and seat
- The highly-effective deodorizer prevents unwanted lingering odors
- Shorter warranty
- The air dryer could be more powerful
- Elongated only
#3) Brondell Swash S1400 Luxury Bidet Toilet Seat
Now, it’s time to step into the world of Brondell. Over the past several years, Brondell has made a name for itself in the bidet space. As a result, Brondell bidet seats are some of the best and most reliable available. Currently, the S1400 is one of Brondell’s best high-end bidets, and the price tag is appetizing when you consider the features it offers.
First, one advantage of choosing this bidet for American Standard toilet owners is that it’s available in both round and elongated. Accordingly, this bidet seat is the first one to consider if you own a round American Standard toilet. Just be sure to take the measurements of your toilet to compare to Brondell’s Quick Toilet Fit Guide.
Next, this model is the first one that offers a welcoming soft-blue nightlight that can be turned off. Additionally, you might prefer the stainless steel dual nozzles over the plastic ones. This seat also features a self-cleaning Nozzle Clean+ system to keep the seat hygienic between uses. Finally, this model also brings unlimited warm water to the table instead of relying on a tank.
- Features a soft-blue nightlight
- Unlimited warm water
- Round and elongated models available (fits most American Standard toilets, including the Champion)
- Stainless steel nozzles
- Intuitive remote control
- All the core luxury features offered by bidets, without the exorbitant cost
- The water pressure may not get as high as a Washlet
- The deodorizer isn’t automatic
- Round seat opening may feel too small
#4) Bio Bidet Bliss BB2000 Smart Toilet Seat
One manufacturer that’s in direct competition with Brondell is Bio Bidet. In fact, I previously wrote an article on Brondell vs Bio Bidet to give you more info on the topic. Comparatively, the BB2000 offers mostly the same features as the Swash S1400, and it’s available in both elongated & round. However, there are some slight differences to be aware of.
For starters, the BB2000 uses a 3-in-1 stainless steel nozzle rather than a dual-nozzle system. As a result, the single nozzle offers several stream patterns to accommodate both feminine washing and posterior washing. Plus, there’s the Vortex Wash option that provides more water volume after doing a number two.
As for compatibility with American Standard toilets, the elongated BB2000 for sure fits the American Standard Cadet Pro elongated model. Also, it’s compatible with the Champion model. Similar to the preceding seats, it’s best to take measurements of your current bowl to ensure it’s compatible with the BB2000.
- No need to replace the air filters in the deodorizer
- 3-in-1 nozzle design for posterior and feminine washing
- Compatible with the Cadet Pro and Champion
- Nightlight with touchscreen side panel
- Vortex Wash feature for a more complete clean
- The remote is not backlit
- Louder than a Toto Washlet
- The installation hardware could be of better quality
- The lid may not feel as sturdy as other brands
#5) American Standard AquaWash 1.0 Non-Electric SpaLet Bidet Seat With Manual Operation
Last is your most basic option, and therefore, your most affordable (at the time of this writing). Comparatively, this bidet seat does not have all of the bells & whistles offered by the preceding seats. Consequently, there’s no heated seat or luxurious air dryer for your bottom. Having said that, the AquaWash 1.0 is a great entry-level bidet for American Standard toilet owners who are new to bidets and/or on a budget.
One clear advantage is that since American Standard manufactures this bidet seat, it’s highly unlikely that you’ll run into any compatibility issues. Yet, since it’s available in elongated only, you’ll have to choose another option if you own a round toilet. Next, there’s no need to rely on electricity to use this bidet. For this reason, you won’t have to install an outlet or worry about where you’ll plug it in.
Using the bidet is very simple with a turn of the side lever. Simply turn it backward for feminine washing and forward for posterior washing. Additionally, there’s the option to adjust the water pressure, and the dual-nozzle system is self-cleaning. Finally, the slow-close seat design is a nice touch as well as the seamless telescoping lid that conceals the ring.
- No need to rely on electricity
- Attractive seamless lid design
- Dual-nozzle system for feminine and posterior washing
- Adjustable water pressure
- Compatible with most American Standard elongated toilets
- Easy installation
- No warm water could get uncomfortable during the winter months
- The highest water pressure setting may leave something to be desired
- No luxury bidet features
Bottom Line
When choosing the best bidet for an American Standard toilet, people who are the most concerned about compatibility should stick with American Standard brand bidets. Outside of American Standard models, both Toto and Brondell provide useful size charts to ensure compatibility with your toilet. Be sure to check the dimensions twice before you buy to avoid any unforeseen problems during installation.
Also, since American Standard bidets are made for elongated toilets, American Standard round toilet owners will want to look at what Brondell and Bio Bidet offer first. However, the downside is that you may find that the toilet opening is smaller than you’d like after installing a bidet on a round toilet. This is an issue for all round toilet owners, not just American Standard.
