If bidets became commonplace, it would reduce the need for toilet paper greatly! Ask me, I know! Got one for $40.00 from Amazon, attached in minutes. Best thing since sliced bread

[–] BlackPenguins@lemmy.world 31 points 11 months ago (2 children)

I did the exact same. I never want to go back. Though Ill be honest, I have never tried sliced bread on the anus.

[–] prole@sh.itjust.works 11 points 11 months ago (1 children)

To be fair, it probably feels luxurious.

[–] trashgirlfriend@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago (2 children)

I only use artisan sourdough personally

[–] Chocrates@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Artisan Sourdough often has a chewier crumb than sandwich bread and the crust is harder. Sounds like it would be murder on the under carriage

[–] BlackPenguins@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

The avocado makes it softer.

[–] Emma_Gold_Man@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 11 months ago

Sounds like a recipe for a yeast infection to me. I'll stick to tortillas.

[–] reagansrottencorpse@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago (2 children)

I bought one at the start of the pandemic and it's just sat in my bathroom in the box behind the door 😭

[–] BlackPenguins@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

Dude, it takes like 5 minutes to install. There is no complicated plumbing. One existing bendy pipe is forked into two - your tank and the bidet.

[–] Soggy@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

For a simple cold water model, sure. Maybe theirs is heated and needs a second water line run to the main plumbing, or a power cable somewhere which can be awkward in a bathroom.

[–] RickyRigatoni@lemmy.ml 1 points 11 months ago

yeah i am not shooting cold water down there in the middle of winter. heated bidet or paper.

[–] Horton4u@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

OMG have someone install it! you will not regret it! lol I htg love it

[–] kerrigan778@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Or install it yourself, it's shockingly easy

[–] LinkOpensChest_wav@lemmy.one 4 points 11 months ago (4 children)

Doesn't it involve plumbing? I'm not good with plumbing. I'm picturing water everywhere, like the time I fixed my sink.

[–] Notyou@sopuli.xyz 8 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Not that much "plumbing" if you wanna call it that.

  1. Turn the nozzle on the water line, from the wall to the tank, off.
  2. Unscrew the line and add the bidet line to it.
  3. Screw line back in.
  4. Turn nozzle back on.
  5. Enjoy a clean booty.
[–] Pogbom@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

Can confirm, I have zero plumbing experience and installed mine with zero issues. It's about as simple as entry-level Ikea furniture.

[–] LinkOpensChest_wav@lemmy.one 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)
[–] Notyou@sopuli.xyz 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I installed it myself with that tushy bidet one. The website is helloTushy.com. Make sure the hello is infront or else it will link to porn. I believe they have a video you can watch of the install.

[–] bane_killgrind@lemmy.ml 2 points 11 months ago

Tushy is great, but thanks for the bidet hookup also

[–] Horton4u@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

If you have a newer home, it only involves removing the water feed line to your toilet tank (turn water at shut-off valve first) and installing the hose to the bidet. It is very simple process as long as your toilet and home is not too old. When parts are old and corroded from time, it can be a bit more involved. Check out YT for "do it yourself" vids.

[–] LinkOpensChest_wav@lemmy.one 4 points 11 months ago

I'll look into it, thanks! I've always wished I had one

[–] BradleyUffner@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Yes it involves plumbing, but just barely. It's super easy. Everything screws in with no more than a simple wrench. There is no soldering, cutting, specialized tools, or anything like that. If you can screw and unscrew the cap on a soda bottle, you can do this.

[–] LinkOpensChest_wav@lemmy.one 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I can't connect a garden hose without water leaking out the connections, so I'm not sure how well I'd fare with indoor plumbing

[–] BradleyUffner@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

That's more of a design fault of garden hoses than a failing of skill.

[–] bane_killgrind@lemmy.ml 1 points 11 months ago

It's not a fault per se, it's just the result of cheap, UV resistant, outdoor weatherable products.

You wouldn't buy tight fitting metal couplers, for this, mostly because they would be expensive as hell and too hard to deal with any grit in the connections.

Apples and oranges

[–] BlackPenguins@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

You are basically adding a fork to your existing line to your tank. 4 new connections.

[–] downhomechunk@midwest.social 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Same! Now I hate pooping anywhere but home.

[–] Horton4u@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Same here! Makes me wonder why it took so long to discover something the Europeans have had for many years

[–] CafecitoHippo@lemm.ee 2 points 11 months ago

Just one? I got a 2 pack for $40. They've been installed since March with zero issues. And single ply works just fine at home because I don't feel like completely wrecking the plumbing in our house built in 1936. If you really have a problem with single ply, might I suggest you re-evaluate how well you're washing your hands?

[–] calypsopub@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

So ... don't you need paper to dry off? How do you keep from spraying water everywhere and getting your clothes wet? Forgive my cluelessness, but I've often wondered how it works.

[–] Horton4u@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

yes, you do need a small amount of TP to dry off. The spray is narrow and precise it aims pretty naturally to the right "place". Over spray has never been a problem with clothing in my experience. It really is a wonderful invention.
