Massively Off Topic - Bidets

[RuffRuff]

Who’s got one? Basic or enhanced? Who’s used one but can’t do it? Who’s gone to one and now can’t live without?

Maybe you went to Europe and felt that much hygienically refreshed and now are a lifelong bidet-er. Let’s hear it.

I personally love them.

Exhibit A for why UConn won't get in the SEC or B12 or B10.

True - we need to start using outhouses to get in.

Finally someone who gets it.

Well, to be honest, the idea of using yours also disgusts me.

Doesn’t make a bit of difference to me, pal. Enjoy smearing your feces all over yourself.

The package says flushable, but talk to a plumber or a wastewater technician and you will hear horror stories about what those things will do to a septic system.

I’m laughing so hard at some of these comments my eyes are watering. This place can turn any simple, fairly innocuous subject into personal conflicts and I’m here for it.

My question is:

Great concept, great innovation… but finding someone who will install one seems like it’s nearly impossible. You have to have electrical to the one i want plus a water line it’s quite complicated apparently. Do you need electrician and a plumber? $$$$

Any tips?

You need the one with the automatic tampon remover for your wife. Just don’t hit the button by accident when you’re on.

Mrs. Diesel took it from the front last month in Tokyo for the first time. The nurse in her immediately came out and stated these toilets would wipe out a good portion of UTI's for women.

We have had a Toto washlet for maybe 10 years.

See - and just like that we are back on topic. Toto had Connecticut connections - the Porcaro brothers grew up in Hartford.

I can install one of these blindfolded - it’s connecting an adapter that runs to the unit from the water line to the tank. Most electrical units run off battery. Cmon now. Wrench and screwdriver job.

Wow. That was an oddly specific response. Is there something you want to share with the group, Deep?

Luxe bidet from Amazon. Like $40 and life altering. Even put one on my RV toilet! Take a ride on the wild side!

 

[Huskyforlife]

I feel like if you wash your assz every night you shouldn't need it. Maybe some of you ain't doing that though.

 

[Vowelguy]

This is so like so many other BY threads, except here the posts are literally, not just figuratively, full of cr@p.

What else needs to be shared? You have the bathroom hygiene of a baboon.

I installed one on every toliet in my house after returning from Europe for the first time. I could never go back to not using one. I know find it strange that bidet are still not as popular in the States. I think we are one of the few countries in the world who have not just about standardized on them.

Just the idea of touching controls that someone else has touched while pooping kinda gives me the heebie-jeebies.

In your own house? We're not talking about the Grand Central men's bathroom in the 80s.

The US toilet paper lobby is a powerful breed keeping us all from the truth.

Well in Japan apparently they’ve learned squatting deep over a hole in the ground leads to a cleaner and more productive dump. I’m just not sure all the fat Americans can pull that off without tearing something.

I was thinking about in a hotel, or B&B, etc. Just kind of skeeves me out.

I'd rather push a button that makes the toilet seat go up and down than actually lift or put down the toilet seat! Same with controller button vs. flush handle/button.

I fell in love with Japanese toilets when I was over there -- the bidet is fine, but it's really the whole thing: heated seats, self-cleaning, white noise.

We have a Toto Neorest. It's awesome.

Yeah, I guess I could buy into the home version. I've just never found using them in hotels particularly appealing. Plus the whole concept of sitting down on something that looks like a toilet without a seat on it, isn't appealing to me.

I'll give it a shot the next time I'm in Europe. Maybe.

It's good for your health. It's good for the environment. It feels good.

Go bidet
