Anyone have a bidet? Or a Toto toilet with the bidet attachment?

There's now this thing called Tushy. It's an easy add on to a normal toilet. I might be down to get one, but was wondering if anyone here has one or has used one.

BTW, be careful when searching for TUSHY. If you go to TUSHY dot com, it's an anal porn website. Definitely NSFW.

Have one on every toilet in my house (the attachment kind you can get on Amazon for $30-40).

All I can say is once you go bidet you’ll never go back.

Flushable wipes are horrible for the sewer system, unfortunately. They tend to clump up and can cause massive clogs.

Bidets are awesome. The best ad I heard for them was (paraphrased): “If you get (bleep) on your hands, do you just wipe it off with a dry tissue? Hell no. You wash that (bleep) off. Why wouldn’t you do the same for another part of your body?” I currently have one of the cheap attachments for my toilet off of Amazon, but when I do a bathroom remodel in a few years I’m aiming for one of the super nice Toto ones with the heated seats and water.

We renovated the house a couple years ago. I wanted one of those japanese toilets as much as anything else we installed. It was crazy expensive but I still would have bought it. The problem was that when I sat on it in the showroom, the toilet was too small. The opening was really tight. Former Acting AG Matt Whitaker should look into this.

The Tushy version might be perfect since it works with my existing toilet.

Ass sprayers are ubiquitous in SE Asia. Cleans the ass easy and cheap install. Including the hose and diverter valve under 10 bucks. Plus you can use it to spray down your bowl to keep it clean. Tissue paper and those ass wipes are horrible to a septic system. You use paper to pat yourself dry and throw it in the trash. So yeah you don't have to buy an expensive toilet to get the benefits.

if I recall reading, they did not become popular in Asia again until the early 80's...the bidet was trying to make a comeback/be introduced in America and Asia. The effort failed in America and caught on big in Asia. I have never understood why they did not become popular in America. Originally I think it was not popular in England and America because it was linked to France and their more liberal sexual society....but that was near 300 years ago.

I recently bought the Brondell Swash which plugs into an outlet for heated water, heated seat, an air dryer, a night light, and a remote control. I also have a hand held wand bidet in another bathroom. I actually prefer the handheld version because it’s easier to control the aim and flow of the water. The flow of water is a little lighter than I’d like with the Brondell, though I think it’s similar to Toto toilets and others. I almost never wipe more than once and that’s just to dry things and double check to make sure there is nothing left behind.

I was a reluctant bidet user but it is honestly life changing. No matter what the condition of your feces, you will never get raw or sore if you have a bidet. I had a colonoscopy and had no issues with getting raw or sore during the prep, which I think is the ultimate test. I like to think that my doctor marveled at how pristine everything was back there. Haha.

It has to be up there. Check this out....you know how you feel when you roll into the facility for the actual colonoscopy? I mean your hygiene could be godly, but nobody feels attractive after emptying out their bowels for the last 24 hours. Then they do a water enema to make sure everything is out. Ok, so I arrive at like 7AM that morning and they put me in this little pre op room to wait for the nurse to come in and do the water enema.....and of course the nurse is the "hot girl at the gym". You know, the 25ish year old smoke show that looks like god hand carved her that every guy watches out of the corner of his eye....and drives the S Class convertible that her Cardiologist / Cardiac Surgeon fiance purchased for her. It was beyond terrible as she tried to make small talk about the gym as she is cleaning me out. The next day, I joined a new gym.

Yeah, I have those too. My wife insisted on getting them, it wasn't a high priority lifestyle item for me. In fact, I didn't use the spray option for several weeks, I felt that it was a tad too foofoo. I've changed my mind though, I've learned to enjoy it.

The only complaint I have is the night light. Studies show that blue light contributes to the delay the release of sleep-inducing melatonin and pretty much hoses your circadian rhythm. I'm not a deep sleeper as it is, so that might contribute to some sleeplessness.

Mine has the ability to turnoff the blue light.

Bidets!

My first experience was at the Madonna Inn, they have them in their toilets, the fancy Toto bowls with the electronics and dryer.

As soon as I experienced that, I needed one of some sort.

I have them installed in my house. The attachments, since it is too expensive to get actual toilets like that.

But man they save on toilet paper and hassle.

Ever get that #2 urge after a shower and how mad you feel?

Not with a bidet.

Miss when you wipe?

Not with a bidet.

Wipe and wipe and it never ends?

Not with a bidet.

Bidet all the way!

Bye.

Lol. I had them put me under because I also got an endoscopy on the same day/same time and I was like, “I don’t want to remember any of this.”, so they said no problem.

I simultaneously love and hate this thread. Great insight but do I really want to know about my fellow LGers (bleep)?
