Bidet Shower – Hand Bidet, Commode/Toilet/Bum Shower, Health Faucet, Bum Gun
- nojs 3y agoHonestly after using one of these for years living abroad there’s no going back. It’s faster, cleaner, and more environmentally friendly. I will continue to install them wherever I live in the future. It’s an “addition” to the usual method, not a replacement, so it’s just objectively a good idea.
- d13 3y agoAnd, if you don’t have one of these, all you need is a jug of water and your left hand. Toilet paper is absolutely disgusting stuff.
- midoridensha 3y agoI don't think that any country that doesn't have these installed on almost all toilets, including those in public toilets, can really call itself "civilized".
- stavros 3y agoI really surprised myself with how much I think "wow, brutes" whenever I have to use the toilet at a house with no bidet. I didn't think I would be so stuck up on this, but it really feels disgusting to have to wipe feces again.
- loa_in_ 3y agoNow, I guess the most important is to quantify how much it feels disgusting Vs how much it is disgusting in it's effects.
- thatguy27 3y agoCare to recommend a model one can retrofit?
- maztaim 3y agohttps://biobidet.com/products/essential-bidet-attachment https://biobidet.com/products/essential-bidet-attachment Any attachment or seat that doesn’t require hot water or electricity. They are cheap, simple to install, operate, clean easily and last a long time. The only problem is, they can be cold in the winter depending on water source. I do not mind and actually find it refreshing.
- thatguy27 3y agoThanks. It does not look like I can get Amcor/Bemis products in the Netherlands. I was hoping to take the guesswork out of it and avoid buying something crappy. If anyone around here could offer a suggestion, I would appreciate it.
- maztaim 3y agoFor the non-electric, it’s pretty much a matter of aesthetics. They are manually turned on and off. I say the less plastic, the more durable. A handheld bidet requires less butt-shimmey to clean more surface area.
- kumarvvr 3y agoImagine this. I spread a lump of chocolate on your arm. What would you do to be absolutely sure there is no trace of it left on your arm? Scrub it off with a piece of paper or wash it off with water?
- conception 3y agoMost cleaning jobs use wet towels and I think a wet washcloth would be the best solution here too. This eventually brought me to wet wipes.
- Two4 3y agoWet wipes, no matter how much the manufacturer claims, are not flushable. They don't break down in water like toilet paper (why would they? defeats their purpose), and clog sewage lines like a mofo. Even if they don't affects the lines in your property, they very likely gather somewhere downstream. The alternative is throwing them in some kind of receptacle, which I understand is acceptable in some countries anyway due to poor sewage infrastructure.
- classicmotto 3y agowash yo a$$
- bettercallsalad 3y agoWell as environment friendly as it can be in addition to providing better cleansing, bidets would replace possibly billions of dollars of toilet paper expenses from across the spectrum of population with different wealth. This is a loss of revenue for corporations and government (sales tax) who are in turn controlled by the corporations.
- d13 3y agoI agree, and think we really need a huge, worldwide public health education initiative to rid the world of toilet paper
- willcipriano 3y agoBig TP strikes again.
- rini17 3y agoWas curious and got one but it does not remove everything. I have to finish the job with paper anyway. The result is bit better but I expected more. Like no more toilet paper just wipe with a towel. Am I mistaken?
- arcanemachiner 3y agoSounds like your unit is lousy or the water pressure in your home is too low.
- rini17 3y agoPressure is okay here. Is it supposed to work like pressure washer?
- harshalizee 3y agoYup! It's should scrape it off like it's washing out peanut butter from a shag carpet.
- stavros 3y agoYes, that's not typical. With mine, there's nothing visible after I wash, so you could probably wipe with a towel, although I just use two TP squares to avoid the possibility of a potentially poo-stained towel.
- michaelteter 3y agoThe bum gun is a big improvement over dry paper once you learn to manage the process well (keeping the water stream under careful control), but the ultimate in easy effective cleaning is the toilet with integrated sprayers. Fancy ones let you control pressure, angle, pulse or continuous, etc. Via buttons on the side or the wall next to you.
- solardev 3y agoCovid came and went, but cleaner butts stayed
- nunez 3y agoI still don't understand why bidets are so hard to find in the US. They are so much better and sanitary than toilet paper in every dimension.
