I just wanted to share that a week ago, I installed a bidet attachment to my toilet.  I cannot believe that I've lived without this device.  It cost $26.95 on Amazon Prime, is made by a company called "Astor," and it took 5 minutes to install.  It straddles the back of the toilet bowl and taps into the fresh water supply going into the tank.  It doesn't plug in or need batteries, as it works on water pressure.  After you do your business, you simply turn a knob, and it squirts water all over your undercarriage, and you simply use your TP to dry yourself off.  This will pay for itself in a year, will help the environment, and keep me squeaky clean!  Does anyone else have one of these?

I've wanted one of these for years!  I'm going to check it out on Amazon.  (Does it bother you that it's cold water, and not warm?  Does it wake you up in the morning?  Smiley Wink

Squeaky Clean LOL!!! I thought about one of those. I figure it would be a pain in the rear to keep clean or at least trying to clean between it & the regular seat or do you take off the one toilet seat?

@spent2much, I haven't found the water to be too cold, but it's been warmer here in Little Rock.  Since I do tend to go like clockwork first thing in the morning (cue the "Too Much Information" Dancers), I'm sure I'll experience that morning wakeup call by January.  Regardless, I couldn't recommend it enough.

You unscrew the toilet seat then thread the screws back through the toilet seat, then through the attachement which sits on the bowl.  The nozzle that shoots the water actually descends when you turn the knob, so it doesn't get dirty when you're doing in your business.  Once you turn it off, the nozzle goes back up into the unit.  I haven't had any problems with cleaning it at all.  The whole unit has been cleaner than my bowl.

Many people have Toto Washlets. This seat does more than spray water. It heats the water etc.

Now you have me thinking about one. As for it being cold water, they do have a hot and cold water one that feeds the hot water from your sink, if it is nearby. Mine isn't, but one of the reviews mentioned that the cold water really isn't cold since it is room temp from sitting in the bowl during the day. It is in my shopping cart. I fill it with things, then when I'm ready to buy, I review, edit and purchase.
