Not only will a bidet save you on toilet paper, but you will actually feel like you have a clean butt after pooping. Initially it feels weird, but after you get used to it, you won’t want to poop without it.

BTW in case you are wondering: yes, you still need toilet paper to wipe the water off. But it is a small amount.

    I’m late to this but it’s also the 2nd from the top all time post here so I think it should be said. I disagree, at least with a cheap add-on bidet.

    The cheap ones don’t heat the water first so you’re sprayed with cold uncomfortable water, then you’re left with a wet, cold, soggy bottom that you then need to wipe dry, so you still ended up using some tp.

    Honestly, splurging and buying a more-expensive ones is worth it. I now require a heated seat, warm water, and a dryer.

      Pfft, real upscale bidets also have lights, background music, and spray your bottom with your choice of scent when it’s done (Cherry, Vanilla, or New Car Smell).

    I really want one, but I’m renting and the model I want needs an electrical outlet. There’s one on the other side of the wall right by my toilet, but I can’t have one put in.

      Get an analog one without delay. That was my #1 concern before getting a bidet: “Wouldn’t the water feel cold? Do I need a heater?” Guess what! After getting one that simply plugs into the cold water pipe I can now tell assuredly: the ass can’t tell the difference. There are simply not enough nerve endings down there to sense the cold. Wish someone had told me sooner!

      I use a butt towel. Just need to remember to move it if any guests visit, lest they start drying their face on it.

        Pretty good! The ones with the sharp bend are better than the straighter ones.

        Fill it up with warm water before you poop for comfortable washing action.

        No more wiping a permanent marker.
