Having just spent 2 weeks in japan, I'm not looking forward to my first poop at home. Am going to be looking at cost of upgrading.
just get one that fits under your toilet seat they're like 40 bucks and take 5 mins to install
Feh, you vastly underestimate how crap I am at plumbing.
Like the comic relief janitor of old, I have a gift for picking up every wrong part before I find the one I need.
They're thumb nuts, you don't even need tools. There are pictures. It's really easy.
If you're that unsure of your abilities, spend a bit more and get one of the replace the whole seat kind of bidets. Literally All I had to do was disconnect the waterline, install the t-junction, then reconnect the waterline. Plug the provided hose into both items, install with some thumb screws and enjoy your wet butthole.
The waterline for my toilet is inside the cistern
It doesn't hook up to the wall anywhere you can hook into?
A plumber could, nothing i could self install
The problem with bidets is that they require electricity and often there isnt any available next to the toilet. So you have to burn your house down and start over from scratch.
What kind of fancy bidets are you using?? I've never used one that requires electricity, and I've spent months in Italy, all over the country.
Dude, trust me.. that booty will love you. I never liked it, until my wife got me in to it. I feel fresher than ever.
Alpha bidet is where it's at
