What changes when you rinse first

  • Water removes what paper smears. You need a few sheets to dry, not a handful to clean.
  • No perfume and no preservatives touch your skin. It is tap water.
  • Nothing extra goes down the drain.
  • The bottle stands by the toilet and takes ten seconds to fill.

Why wipes are the thing to drop

Sewer departments ask people to flush toilet paper and nothing else. A wipe that clears your toilet can still snag in the pipes of your own building, and that goes for wipes sold as flushable too.

Where a fitted bidet is the better buy

  • If squeezing a bottle is hard for your hands, a seat with a lever or button is easier.
  • If you own your home and want heated water on tap, a fitted seat does that and a bottle does not.
  • If several people share one bathroom, each needs a bottle. A seat serves everyone.

Other ways to use it

  • Travel: Hotels, flights and long drives without a bidet in sight.
  • After birth: A peri bottle for the weeks when paper is the last thing you want.
  • Camping and road trips: Clean hands, clean feet and a clean backside far from a bathroom.
  • Period days: A rinse with plain water, at home or in a public stall.
  • Sore or sensitive skin: When wiping is the part that hurts.
