I installed a bidet today

[Rookie]

Mine has a built in water heater and a dryer. We've had it for three years. Laugh all you want, but it's great.

Heated water and an A-hole dryer?!...................I'd never get off the shatter.

Ahole dryer? My wife calls that "his bath towel"

But is it WARM water? It better be. Nothing ruins a faster than the cold splash off a high diving turd hitting you square in the chocolate starfish. Makes me jump every time. And its not only surprising, but uncomfortable.

So THAT'S why you did that!

My wife bought this off Amazon and asked me to install it today.
I did, and we've been laughing like demented high schoolers ever since. She said she loved it and was gonna buy more to give away as gifts.
For those interested, it was less than $25 and took about 5 minutes to install and it seems to be powerful enough to clean the second story windows on my old house.

I had that exact same model, but it developed a leak where the supply line connects to the back of the unit. Keep an eye on it.

That said I can never go back to not having one. Anytime I have to use a restroom without one I'm bummed out because it feels so primitive now in comparison.

Mine works but not as fancy

I'm going to assume this is a real question.

A run down of my process:

Sit.
Do business.
Realize I've been done for some time bc surfing on phone.
Long spray
Couple short sprays
Remain seated for a bit to allow some drip dry.
Pat/wipe with tp to dry further.
Flush.
Done.

My guess was that tp on a wet bottom was not a great idea.

Seriously. If you haven’t tried it you should. You just can’t go back after. I give it 2 thumbs up!!

Hopefully afterwards.

I'm just not sure about "drying off" with TP. Any tp I've seen that's soft enough to come in contact with my butt just instantly falls apart if it gets wet. Seems like you'd want something a little more substantial. At least a paper towel or two.

They asked, I answered.

If you didn't want to read about bathroom stuff why did you come into a a thread about bidets?

Thought it was about our “President“ and wondered why it wasn’t in the general politics thread!?!

This is what I use. Only time I don't like it is when it has Acetone in it

We have had one of the bidet toilet seats for several years. Yes the seat is heated and so is the water. It'll spray your bum and the private area of the ladies of the house. We also got a "comfort" height toilet. When we got the master bedroom remodeled, we had the same toilet and bidet installed. During the great TP shortage, we had no worries. I never thought I'd use the bidet, I primarily had the first one installed for the lady of the house, but after using it, I was sold. Sitting on a standard height toilet now makes me feel like I'm using a kiddie one.

Well, for my part, I came here because I had no idea what a bidet was. I was honestly thinking it might be some cool new tactical attachment I'd never heard of.

With my 2nd son on his way to college I'm starting to think about doing some remodeling and the master bath is high up on the list. Those comfort toilets look very nice as you get to be my age.

I am curious why it appears the 'ers appear to raving about their bidet's... May have to look into it while I plan out the remodel.

Because anything else is uncivilized!

Now that ya mention it, my bidet does take Glock mags.

Yes, but is it threaded for a suppressor?

 

[bwframe]

I have one. It's in the cabinet, waiting on the next TP shortage.

I'm concerned about getting too used to "special settings," that would make other situations problematic?

How would you ever be able to in the woods again after normalizing the wash after? Dig and go in a cat hole?

It took me a bit to work up the courage to post in this thread at all, with the oversharing potential and that that has already happened.
