Everyone I've known who has a bidet says they will never go back to using paper. I'm waiting to get enough cash to get an electric one with heat and install a separate outlet for it.
While hot water is definitely better, cold water is still a huge upgrade over tp.
If you have 2 toilets in your house you could consider getting cold water now and then moving it to s spare bathroom. Start converting your friends.
That's a good idea. We have a half bath that is mostly for guests. Would be a good place to try it out.
I have a bidet. I use paper almost every time, honestly.
You have the right plan my friend! Funny enough I’ve had mine for almost 4 years now. I just got around to installing an outlet in the bathroom just for this purpose. I’ve had it powered via an extension cord for a while with some creative hiding.
The powered ones are totally worth it. I had a super cheap unpowered one for 10 years and was happy with it. This Christmas we splurged on a Toto that has the heated seat, heated water, blow dryer, auto-opening lid, air filter fan for smell, etc. It's so much nicer. Not having to touch the toilet lid to lift it up is a benefit I didn't consider but I love it. The heated seat is nice for late night trips to the toilet.
