Having a normal seat is also a lot more comfortable than the default plastic seats. It's maybe 1-2 pounds heavier, but in my case weight isn't really a factor. It's also in front of my axles, which is good.
For those of you still using paper to smudge things around, consider the bidet. It's cleaner and more hygienic and in the RV it means both using less of that flimsy camping TP and having less TP in your black tank. That's a win/win in my book.
It does use more water, so maybe not as good for dry camping, but for those like me who consider roughing it to be bad wifi, this is the only way to go. :B
Thanks again for all the help I got from everyone.
