Bidets are amazing. If you don't have one you should go buy one, they start fairly low priced

garbagebagel@lemmy.world · 17 pts · 1y (4 replies)

Paid $50 for mine like 7 years ago. Is it fancy? Heck no. Does it clean my butt real good? Heck yes.

When I can afford a fancy heated, air drying bidet that will be my goalpost of success.

Botzo@lemmy.world · 12 pts · 1y (1 reply)

I started with a $30 cheapo 10 years ago and it was life changing. Last year I got a stupid expensive one. Like, has a night light, auto flush (because I got the matching toilet), auto lid, heated seat, heated water, deodorizer, wireless remote, etc. (Toto S7A)

Just so you're prepared, the air dry doesn't fully replace the pat dry entirely unless you're gonna sit there for a good long time.

That said, I have no regrets.

I honestly got used to the regular temp one. So much so that when I moved and the new house came with the fancier bidet, I just ended up using regular water every time.

spooky2092@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 1 pts · 1y

You can find a decent one with heated seat/water/fan for not much more than that. I spent a bit over 100$ for mine, and I love it. We had to RMA it within 6 months because the heater died, but it's been rocking for like 1.5 years since then without issue.

Worth every penny. Especially in the middle of winter.

Why is my ass always itching?

Because you don't wash it, you dumbass.

MisterFrog@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 1y

Do people not wash daily? This seems like a general hygiene issue, and not that closely correlated with bidet use.

Source: I have never used a bidet, and my butt does not itch, ya know, because I wash daily?

That's true but if the argument is "deal with shit on your butt the same way you would deal with shit anywhere else on the body" then the logical conclusion would be to take a shower after every poo

But with a bidet, you do have an option with soap since it can be rinsed (which I believe is the norm in my poor ass country, be it bidet or good ol' dipper). I don't normally wipe soap with a tissue.

That's what I love about mine. Automatic lid raise and lower as you walk in, heated ring and water, (both adjustable temp), air dry, (again heated), and charcoal filtered air filtration to minimize the stench from that drive through burrito.

I got something like this for like 15 euros from a German shop but I'm sure you'll find it everywhere. I payed a little extra for stainless-steel instead of plastic. It's still incredibly cheap and my family uses it daily for years. I don't need any more luxury.

kameecoding@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 1y (2 replies)

I think this is better than whats mounted into the toilet, because well sooner or later you get one of those days when shit flies everywhere and then enjoy cleaning the nozzle, meanwhile these things are usually just attached to the side of the toilet pr to the wall and no danger of it getting shit on barring extreme circumstances

LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 3 pts · 1y

Even the cheap ones have a self clean setting. It just sprays water down the nozzle, and is between on and off. Turn it to that for a second and then off. Never had an issue. When I clean the toilet I use the same brush to glance over it, but really it stays clean on its own

spooky2092@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 1 pts · 1y

Lol, maybe in a shit (pun intended) bidet. Mine is mounted under the toilet seat and self cleans before and after spraying. Also, I can have it set to hit my butthole instead of trying to plains aim and spraying water and shit where it doesn't need to be.

Plus, mine has heated water, so I don't feel like I'm gonna get frostbite on my butthole in the dead of winter.

So, maybe I'm missing something here, but bidets don't seem all that great? Everyone on the internet is always proclaiming life changing experiences with these things. However, when I recently used them they don't seem to do very much. My butthole is still poopy and when I wipe to dry my ass the toilet paper tears.

swampdownloader@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 9 pts · 1y (1 reply)

Some are better than others in both power and nozzle angle/placement. Sometimes you have to shimmy to get the angle just right if the power is low. It should result in a wipe in which no fecal matter remains, only wetness, if executed properly.

fishy@lemmy.today · 7 pts · 1y

Exactly. There's a learning curve but once you've got it, you dread wipe only bathrooms. Installed a bidet on one of my toilets six months ago and now that's the only toilet anybody in the house poops in unless it's already occupied.

LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 5 pts · 1y (2 replies)

Low water pressure maybe? Mines a real cheap one and I've never had issues with not being clean after. I do usually get stronger toilet paper, but I only use a roll or two a month. I wouldn't say it's life changing, but I do prefer it. Also has saved me a lot on tp

My friend has one of those Japanese ones. It also has a warmed toilet seat. When I came out, I said that seat is amazing and they said people never come out of there. I proposed that they were napping on the seat. Why do seat warmers feel so good? The thing is, I could never figure out how to make the actual bidet part work. I suspect the people who took a long time were also trying to test it out, but didn't know how. Or maybe they did and enjoyed it?

I like the bidet's we have at home, but I don't get the ones that are separate from the toilet. Saw this type when visiting San Juan, PR once. Their plumbing system can't handle toilet paper very well, so it's all bidets with a stack of washed towels.

Not only do they take up extra space in the bathroom, but are you supposed to waddle over to this thing with a dingleberry hanging out? I don't get why you'd want that.

The one argument I've heard in their favor is from people with vaginas who don't like the idea of the built-in sprayer catching bits of poop that'll get in their cootch.

I got a Brondell bidet from Costco for like $80. It's just the seat and it's pretty fancy slick with how it self cleans and hides/reveals itself while having no electricity going on. Just have to make sure that if you want hot water you'll have to connect it to the sink waterline. I didn't do that and the cold wasn't a problem after a few uses getting comfortable.

Worst case just return it if you don't like it.

However. The water pressure in our house can be kinda weird. Mostly it’s normal, but sometimes it’s like a jet washer for a few seconds. And those few seconds after you’ve first opened the bidet are like getting reamed out by a Karcher.

Well that's because the phrase is "blowing smoke up my ass" not "blowing hot air up my ass". You're probably mixing it up with someone being "full of hot air".

There's no checkmate here. It's already all figured out by the millions of bidet users over the last hundred years. My wife uses toilet paper, I prefer a small basket of washrags to blot the water away. The rag gets slightly damp and there is no visible poo (having been washed away already), but I'm not going to use it on my face after so if there are micro-particles I don't care.

I'm a convert as of 7ish years ago. First one bathroom, then all bathrooms and the whole family vastly prefers over TP and even our previous favorite, baby wipes. Plus no waste, it's really wins all around. Especially on the butthole.
