    It’s like having a second toilet seat. Takes more room.

    Not from the US and live in a condo, so I’m speaking from a purely practical standpoint. My condo is not that big and having a bidet would mean that I have no place to put my washer and dryer at.

        That’s not really traditionally true. Modern ones are integrated into the toilet seat, but they used to be a standalone fixture.

          Yes, I was thinking about the old designs, haven’t brushed up on new designs.

          Sure, in that case, I would consider it, why not.

          Check out the new ones. They fit right between the toilet seat and the bowl lip. Super slim. Plus, always clean ass.

          You know those poops you take when you wipe once and it’s already clean? It’s like that but ALL THE TIME.

            Damn… this does seem like the way to go.

            I will most definitely look this up, seems like a real time and money saver 👍.

        I suppose there’s also a mini electrical boiler in there somewhere, so the water’s not cold when it hits my ass.

        Cool though, will look into this, seems like a nice soltion, toilet paper is getting more and more expensive.

          Some of them have it, but that complicates the installation. I bought one without a heater ages ago, thinking I’d hate it. I actually hardly notice the cold water. Your butthole isn’t great at sensing hot vs cold.

            My butthole is pretty good at sensing temperature. During the winter I have to try and use the bidet fast with the room temp water before the cold outside water gets to my turd cutter.

            Here, it was below -25C (-13F) last night, and it has generally been below -20C at night for weeks now. Our water is now very cold. Believe me when I say your asshole will notice that.

            I will say tap water at this temperature is fantastic to drink though.
