Title: Bidets
Post by: eskimo2 on November 19, 2006, 04:46:52 PM
Seriously, I don’t understand how the French have gotten the smelly reputation thing after inventing such a fantastic device.  Bidets kick butt and are way better than TP.  They’re also great for little kids who don’t quite yet have the finesse to work TP without making an awful mess.  I bought a cheapo for about $125 with shipping.  It came with everything needed for installation and was about as difficult to install as changing a faucet.  Most cost $400+, but I can’t imagine what they do that my cheap one doesn’t.  Being a typical American I never really thought about using or installing one until recently.  Now that I have one I’m sure I’ll never live anywhere without one.  If interested here’s the one that I bought (no, I don’t get a commission):

Why would you want a drinking fountain in your bathroom?

I thought these things were a little silly until I saw the pic of all these happy, happy couples on the web page. Now I'm beginning to suspect there's more to it than I thought.

Evenheim, why don't you reduce your showering to just wiping up with towels?

Good idea; a less expensive interim solution (especially considering the additional water cost) is Cottonelle Fresh Flushable Moist Wipes and similar wet wipes.

Don't try flushing many at once though or you'll have a (w)hole new problem.

Apparently some aqua-aware societies consider people who only dry wipe as heathens.  After all, they contend, you wouldn't consider your hands clean if you only blotted them and didn't wash them.

To quote Bugs Bunny:  "A-bidet-a-bidet-a-bidet, that's all, folks!"

The Japanese should make bigger buttons on their bidets so that the Japanese word for whatever that button does is easier to see. Or they need a smaller language.

Bidets come by default in Spanish bathrooms. I guess the French might have started  installing them back when they invaded, but we are a bunch of ungrateful stingy unwashed brutes, and mounted an insurgency that drove them off (well, with some help from the brits, those old-fashioned bathroom people that have yet to embrace single handle faucets).

Why not just install one of these and hand it some toilet paper?

Just make sure you set it right or it may grab something you really dont want it to play with.
