    Okay, thank you for your very detailed response, at times too detailed. But you’ve convinced me to at least try it. I just ordered the luxe 120 plus on Amazon for $45, we’ll see how it goes.

    Again, thank you for this potentially life changing information.

      I wish you all the best. Sorry for being a bit… Overly complete with my information.

      I hope you like it as much as we do.

        Don’t apologize brother, it’s easy to get carried away in the zeal of spreading the gospel of the wash’ed ass.

      I think you’ll be disappointed with the bidet. Your original comment is correct, they are inconvenient and solve a non-problem.

      It’s annoying waddling from the toilet to the bidet with a dirty ass. It takes time to wash. Then you use more paper to dry than you would have to just wipe. And you don’t feel cleaner afterwards because wiping is fine.

      There’s no polite way to say it, some people like bidets because they make a big mess when they use the toilet. For them bidets are more convenient than paper. For the average person wiping is quicker and easier.

        Okay so your comment about “waddling from the toilet to the bidet” is all someone needs to read to know that you have no idea what you’re talking about.

        Detached bidets exist, but nobody is buying them for $45 on Amazon.

        The type of bidet that people are talking about here are ones that attach to your toilet. You twist a knob to activate the sprayer, which hits where it’s supposed to hit without you having to move.

        You don’t waddle anywhere. It takes 5 seconds to wash. You use one wipe with 3 squares to dry, which is hopefully at least a few times less than you use when you dry wipe. You absolutely feel cleaner afterwards, because you’re using water to remove the shit instead of smearing it around with dry paper.

        The problem that it solves is that you don’t have to walk around with an unwashed ass. Maybe having a disgusting unwashed ass isn’t a problem for you. Maybe if you got shit on another part of your body, you’d just wipe it with some TP and call it good. I’m not judging. Seems weird as hell that you’re trying to shame people who would rather use water to get the shit off, though.

        Just in case, the bidet type they were describing attaches to the toilet directly. No waddling required.

        I’m also not sure about you but when it comes time to dry for me it’s 1 “normal use” wipe. Maybe it’s a matter of aiming the water so you’re not splashing all over yourself? Could also be that (by the sounds of it) you have the full scale bidet where you’re meant to dry with a towel? I don’t really know much about those ones.
