Do you all have an electric outlet by your toilet to get heated water already? I'm interested in trying it out in my house, but don't want to run electric for it.
heated water is nice, but room temperature water direct from the pipes is not as cold as I expected. It's still much better than TP.
I've thought of getting at least a portable Bidet for a while (I rent, so can't really install a proper bidet). How easy are they to install?
For a bidet attachment like tushy it's just shut off the water, flush to drain toilet, remove seat, attach bidet and use the hose splitter for the water, and put seat back on over the bidet attachment.

I honestly have no idea why bidets haven't taken off in the US. After travelling to other countries though, had to buy one for my home toilet. And now I hate having to poop elsewhere where there's no bidet.
ok.....I'm intrigued. I've actually been using my kid's baby wipes because really, anything is better than dry TP. Looking at some options on Costco, seems the cheapy is just a hand-held thing for $80, then the seat-integrated ones are around $300 and up. Is the seat integration worthwhile? What about water temp? Is it basically a cold-shot to the butthole? That'll wake me up, no doubt.

Do they make any that don't take up the rear 3/4 of the seat? I'm interested in getting one but with the standard round toilet you lose a lot of real estate. I don't want my poops to look like they've been squeezed through a playdough extruder or worry about missing my target in an emergency situation.

I got one as a gift and never hooked it up.
I got one during the toilet paper run in pandemic. Never looked back. I do look down on tp users now, though... Bunch of heathens with poopy butts.
do it!
I would get one, but bidet preachers annoy me so much “
how could people live without one the absolute foul savages dwelling in their filth “
I've tried them before and have never had a good experience. It either is too high pressure and hurts, or it's too low pressure and doesn't clean.
And I'm not particularly a fan of how wet everything gets down there after using one.
Is there a particular trick to them or, am I missing something?
The one I have has a dial to adjust how fast the water comes out. Sometimes I need a gentle whisper of water, othertimes I need my butthole power washed.
Sounds like your asshole is just a tad sensitive. Maybe you can get the toilet to buy you dinner first and see if that helps?

Normally it is my girlfriend that does that, so I am doubtful it is a sensitivity issue lmao.

It truly is life changing. A roommate received one as a gift in college. We soon fitted the other bathroom with a bidet as well because it was too good.
