Can’t speak to this, but a bidet will change your life, not in an OMG way, but just a “I wish I was pooping at home” way. Also cold water fine, hot is nice in the winter but I turned the heater off a few weeks ago and haven’t missed it
After you shower, what do you do with your towel - you know, the one that you just used to polish off your nether regions? Or do you dry your butt with TP?
People who haven’t used bidets are stuck in the mindset that their butt can never be clean.
@gageaa75@Jackinga@rpstrong@sixsmith When I get out of the shower I DO use a towel. When I’m IN the shower I use a washcloth AND SOAP to clean myself off. Just hosing off with water ain’t gonna get it all.
I don’t deny that using a bidet gets you cleaner than TP alone, but I wouldn’t want to re-use a hand towel that I wiped my wet ass with. Especially since there is TP right there.
Yes it will. Soaps, detergents, and solvents all have their uses - but for cleaning your butt, a deluge of water beats them all. [I have a drawerful of virginal white tighty-whities which bear mute testimony to this.]
“I wouldn’t want to re-use a hand towel that I wiped my wet ass with.”
But you’re OK with re-using your bath towel?
“Especially since there is TP right there.”
It may be “right there” now, but have you already forgotten the COVID shortages? I started the lockdown with five spare rolls on the shelf; I still had three left when supplies began to reappear on the supermarket shelves.
And where does it go, after it isn’t “right there” any longer? Most people might not think twice about where it flushes away to, but those of us with septic tanks probably do.
They won’t completely clean everyone’s ass. I have IBS, and sometimes there’s poop left after using a handheld bidet and wiping. I have to use a damp washcloth afterward to make sure it’s all off.
I’ve still not used all the TP I bought during 2020, even though I use it to wipe in addition to the bidet. And toilet paper’s fine for septic tanks, I have one as well, just don’t flush those stupid wipes. Although you shouldn’t flush those down the sewer system, either. They create clogs.
But please don’t compare a handheld bidet with the deluge provided by even cheap plumbed in units (mine were under $20/each). They don’t hold nearly the water volume.
As for TP in septic tanks? Somehow, I knew I’d get such a response. Just because it works for you, does not mean it is ‘fine’ for ALL tanks. True Fact: TP does not benefit ANY tank.
@jwoody27@yakkoTDI Ironically, it’s even more relevant today than when it came out! With the way education in our society is headed, it isn’t going to take 100 years.
@hchavers I take it you’ve never been to Japan, particularly Tokyo, where the water smells faintly like sewage and some toilets are of the squat variety and smell pretty bad too. AFIK, bidets are not common there.
You probably don’t know that bidets were a French invention, most likely in the early 1700s, and the country most devoted to them is Italy where they are mandatory in new construction.
You probably don’t know that they were originally intended as a birth control to wash sperm out of a vagina, and so got a bad rep associated with whore houses in WWII.
And you probably don’t know that you can clean yourself far, far more effectively with a water spray and just use a bit of TP for drying. Really cuts down on the TP bill, big time.
If you ever install one, you will not want to “go” anywhere else. If you must, you will likely make a stop as soon as your reach home and use the bidet. It’s that nice.
And yes, cold water is fine, refreshing even. We don’t have a lot of temperature sensing nerves in the nether regions where the sun don’t shine but the bidet sprays perfectly well.
Get one and say hello to clean underwear and goodbye to dingle berries forever.
@hchavers@Jackinga When were you last in Japan? And where? Yes, the French invented the bidet, but the Japanese have perfected it, with toilets that not only spray water on you and have warm seats, dry you with warm air, and in fancy department stores they even have button to simulate a “flushing sound.” I asked my aunt what that was for, and she said “some ladies are so modest that they don’t want anyone to hear them do their business.” https://yougojapan.com/japanese-bidets-toilets/
@hchavers@Jackinga@Kyeh My first encounter with a magical Japanese automated toilet was actually about 30 years ago when I was there for work in a very nice hotel in Shinjuku. It was in my hotel room bathroom and a built-in panel on the wall controlled the various features. I couldn’t read the Japanese text on the buttons but from some icons could figure it out.
@hchavers@Jackinga@pmarin
They really are deluxe! They’ve come a long way - it’s true that when I visited my mother’s relatives with her as a kid, they had a squat toilet and I was afraid I’d fall in. We stayed several months so they got a little seat to put over it for me.
For a moment, I thought the dude in the last pic was attempting to attach the bidet to the tree. Does a bear shit in the woods? I dunno, but that dude might.
@PooltoyWolf according to the charmin commercials, bears shit in toilets, and proudly discuss wiping their asses with all members of the family, and then display their freshly wiped asses to their children. It’s a weird marketing campaign, but I guess it makes people talk about it.
Real question… Wouldn’t you want to wipe first then spray and then wipe? Spraying first would seem “messy” . This is coming from a person who never has used one before.
@natekimh I have a fancy one: electric outlet required, all the bells and whistles.
I do not wipe after my business. However, you MUST clean the wand periodically. It gets nasty. Why, as much as I love bidets, I would never trust one at a place that isn’t white-glove service. I do wipe for dryness, despite having an air dryer.
@natekimh Usually you spray first, then wipe afterward. The idea is for it to wash all, or at least most, of the poop off so you don’t need to wipe as much. Ideally you’re just wiping water off, the bidet having removed all the poop.
@KevinS10@natekimh I have the nice electric kind and the ‘wand’ is motorized and comes out to spray directly upward at the ‘area of interest’, i.e. ‘a sphincter says what?’
So whatever sprays up comes straight down. This one looks like it just sprays from the back of the bowl area, meaning more likelihood of flying forward which could be messy. Yeah, don’t want that.
The wand position is adjustable and you can move it back and forth (or it can do it automatically). The feminine setting covers a more forward region which is not useful to me so I haven’t tried that.
And afterwards the wand self-cleans and retracts.
I’d say for the price this is worth a try but the hardest part is attaching the plumbing fitting (often old toilet valves will be stuck or leak once you mess with them, so you may have larger plumbing project than you expected). The only difference with the electric ones (other than costing more) is that you have to plug it in. I use an extension cord even though the instructions say not to.
@mike808 Not true, it comes with settings for “clean butt” and “clean other stuff.” It’s not single-sex, but it is vaguely misogynistic in a way that might cause women to make unfavorable assumptions about your character for owning a product with such a label. (Thus, meh…)
The Jeopardy! category would be “Stuff @llangley Likes A Lot”?
If you know me it’s sunshine, German shepherds, bourbon, weed, USA, Ukraine. I have no sports team icons yet to include the Braves or the Dawgs and this was the closest thing I could find to a pot leaf .
@werekong Mechanically yes, although if you sit more forward on the elongated seat than you would on a round seat, it will wash your back instead of the intended area.
I bought one last time around. It’s a $20 bidet at best. I also have a Luxe Bidet Neo 320, and bought the DUDE for a secondary bathroom. It works… but not as well as the Luxe. The water stream is less focused and splashes more, meaning you have to dry off more. The mounting area is thicker, meaning that the toilet seat has a definite downhill slope after installation, and unlike the Luxe the DUDE doesn’t come with anything to correct the angle. The plastic is also less dense and makes more ominous creaks as you sit down, bringing long-term durability into question.
Plus, the branding is a huge misfire; if you’re not a frat boy through and through, you’ll be embarrassed for anyone else to see how the thing is labelled.
But it does do the job.
If you’re bidet-curious and you want a disposable unit to see if the concept is at all acceptable, buy it, but understand that this is a dollar-store-quality unit and most others are much better. If you’re already sold on bidets and you have a basement half-bath off the rec room that lacks one… and you’re cheap… it’ll do the job, but you may regret not buying another good one.
@macwhiz For the bidet curious, Walmart has a similarly priced one that works extremely well. I like it so much, I bought one for a friend who is also new to the clean ass club.
I bought this the last time it was available. I had one bidet in my upstairs bathroom and wanted one for downstairs. For $20 this gets the job done. It’s a bit tricky to figure out how to control the stream, but it works well enough. It also is very easy to install.
I bought this a few weeks ago and love it, easy to install, works great. Bonus: I just had a horrible bike accident last week, broke collarbone, shoulder blade, several ribs, etc…so no use of my right arm for now. When I was discharged from the hospital this was a lifesaver!
@ws1o I originally bought a portable hand-held bidet after I had a partial nephrectomy on my right kidney to remove a tumor. I couldn’t twist around enough to wipe for months, but the extended wand on the portable one was long enough that I could use it.
Definitely a life saver, or at least a dignity saver. Having someone else have to wipe your butt is humiliating.
I, too, bought this from here recently. I had never used one before, and am glad I got this. The price is certainly right, and it was easy to install. The branding is obnoxious, but I took a sharpie to the brand name part, then used some small floral glass-cling decals to cover that, so it’s fine.
Bought this last time, could not get it installed without leaking (a lot) where the plastic fitting of the unit meets the metal fitting on the toilet. After many 4 letter words I gave up and just shoved it back in the box. I may one day try to install again, but I’m in no hurry. Truly ‘meh’, on this one.
@cocacola08 That was my thought about this being ‘easy’ to install. In many cases it is, but the plumbing part can bring up all sorts of issues. The issue you mention seems like either some of the parts were dirty or corroded, or it was not threaded on right. Sometimes you need to use a ‘teflon tape’ or sealant. Other times the valve is frozen or will leak after you mess with it (if it hasn’t been touched in decades).
That was my argument for the electric kind – it’s the same plumbing hassle, but after that all you do is plug it in and you now have a heated seat and warm water when you need (and sometimes other features). In a hot Summer it seems silly to want that, but trust me, in Winter you will appreciate the warm seat and water.
@pmarin I’m sure it was a threaded wrong problem on my part. Likely on the first try the threads on the plastic were shredded. Combine that with my instant frustration in working in tight places (read claustrophobia + not being a small human) I probably gave up to easily. At some point I’ll revisit the install, but I’m certain I’ll have to get creative with repairing/replacing the plastic fitting that’s surely mangled at this point.
This thing is amazeballs! I installed mine this week from a purchase made in May. I’m not sure how I lived so long without having this. I bought two then and just bought a 3rd one this morning for my 2nd home. I love this thing, I’ve never been cleaner down yonder!
Got this last time. Works perfectly for my basement bathroom (which is coincidentally the only one we have while our main bathroom is getting remodeled). No warmer isn’t an issue.
My 7 year old had his “Randy trying the Japanese toilet” moment with it and now uses it every time. Now everyone is prepared for when our $950 (still cheap apparently?) Swiss bidet/toilet is up and running.
It’s not bad for what it is, I bought one last time around. Install was a little tricky because my one piece elongated toilet has a bit of a curve near the tank but made it work.
This was my first try at a bidet to see if they get the job done. I am impressed, will prob splurge for a powered model in the future.
I’m also one of those that bought last time. It’s surprisingly good for the price point. There’s pros and cons, and some things will be dependent on your toilet and seat. I still haven’t put a sticker over the stupid logo, and it is a very stupid logo. All the branding is terrible, which I’m assuming is why it’s on meh. Even the instructions are written in a very annoying style.
The actual function though, it does what it says and it does it pretty well. If you’ve been on the fence about getting a bidet, this is a good way to try it out without spending a ton of cash.
Fun throughout. I needed a plumber. And I would like a warm water option and an air flow dryer but , for this price, it’s a steel. But I keep wanting to devise ass-pirational tributes.

@sixsmith well said!
@Jackinga @sixsmith Butt (heh) you still need to wipe with TP. Unless you like having a wet ass.
@Jackinga @sixsmith @Trinityscrew You use a handcloth - remember, what you’re drying is now freshly cleaned.
When you shower, do you dry off with paper towels?
@Jackinga @rpstrong @sixsmith @Trinityscrew and then you hang your hand towel back on the ring? I don’t think so
@gageaa75 @Jackinga @rpstrong @sixsmith @Trinityscrew I bought some very soft (for baby) washclothes, which hang on his/hers hooks next to the toilet. They get laundered every week. T-P not required…
@gageaa75 @Jackinga @sixsmith @Trinityscrew No towel rings; I leave it folded and draped over the edge of the bathtub.
After you shower, what do you do with your towel - you know, the one that you just used to polish off your nether regions? Or do you dry your butt with TP?
People who haven’t used bidets are stuck in the mindset that their butt can never be clean.

@gageaa75 @Jackinga @KevinS10 @sixsmith @Trinityscrew Apparently I don’t have IBS, but I have had similar symptoms, currently controlled by two meds and fiber. I feel your pain.
But please don’t compare a handheld bidet with the deluge provided by even cheap plumbed in units (mine were under $20/each). They don’t hold nearly the water volume.

The Japanese germophobic culture is coming to a toilet near you.

@ws1o I originally bought a portable hand-held bidet after I had a partial nephrectomy on my right kidney to remove a tumor. I couldn’t twist around enough to wipe for months, but the extended wand on the portable one was long enough that I could use it.
Definitely a life saver, or at least a dignity saver. Having someone else have to wipe your butt is humiliating.
