In today's electronic bidet market, one can find a variety of materials used to construct cleaning nozzles. These include plastic, aluminum-coated plastic, stainless steel-coated plastic, and all-stainless steel. So which one is better?

The actual "feel" of a water spray is determined by factors such as spray pressure, spray pattern, water temperature, and aeration of the water flow. The materials used in the nozzle construction actually have no noticeable effect on the actual water flow itself. All electronic bidets feature self-cleaning nozzles to help maintain hygiene during use. Powerful cleaning jets wash away most visible particles, and most bidet nozzles stay relatively clean over time. So whether the flushing nozzle is plastic, aluminum or stainless steel, a bidet will keep the nozzle extremely clean.

An additional advantage of stainless steel nozzles is their cleanability compared to plastic and aluminum nozzles. Stainless steel has no pores or cracks to harbor dirt and bacteria, so it cleans faster and more thoroughly than other materials like plastic, wood, aluminum and ceramics. And not prone to scratches or corrosion. That’s why we consider stainless steel the most widely accepted surface material in commercial and food handling environments. When bidet seat manufacturers decide to use stainless steel or aluminum instead of plastic, they do so primarily to demonstrate build quality. Metal structures are generally considered to be of higher quality than plastic structures.
