What's a bidet and why should I use it? What are the benefits?

Bidets are super popular in many countries, but it hasn't caught on as much in the United States. Bidets come in a few popular forms: a separate plumbing fixture near the toilet or as an attachment to your toilet (whether inside the toilet bowl or hangout outside with a handheld sprayer.

Should I get a bidet? Yes, I think you should!

It's way more sanitary, you'll protect your skin from drying out, and you'll save toilet paper and trees. Once you get one, you'll never go back. I spoke with 10+ people prior to purchasing this and every single one loved it. I'm now a big fan of bidets myself and made this video so that people can get an unbiased review of the product as well as show the instructions for how I installed it myself at home. You'll never have to worry about toilet paper shortages as I have cut down my toilet paper use by a lot for bowel movements as well as when I am on my period. It has definitely helped me feel better during my period as you'll be able to wash yourself way more frequently and easily.

I have tried and used silver handheld bidets as well and those work great too, though I prefer this type of bidet as you don't have as many moving pieces to hang back up. After installing, you don't really have to move anything except spinning the knobs. Bio and LUXE bidets were other popular options on Amazon (and they work well too) but I chose the Dalmo bidet since it just happened to be on sale when I was looking to purchase.

I have extensively used TOTO brand bidets which I love; they have heated seats as well as heated water. They are definitely an enjoyable experience. I think those are the best ones since the cold water (from the current one I installed) can be a bit shocking for people. However the premium price of the TOTO toilets were a bit cost prohibitive for me (also, I didn't have an outlet nearby to connect it as the TOTO bidets use electricity to keep the water and seat warm).

In this video I'll go over the pros and cons of this brand, how to install a bidet, and some pro-tips they didn't mention in their instruction manual.

I give it 4.5 stars out of 5. I purchased it on sale for just under $22 on Amazon. Amazon purchase link: https://amzn.to/35jclb3

Install: Easy to install, it said in the instructions it doesn't come with plumbers tape but it did! It doesn't come with a wrench or screwdriver but those are the only other tools you'll need.

Downsides: I found the device to work well, and the only downside is the pressure is very high when you turn it on. Even to the first level of power it's quite strong and a bit shocking for guests. I like that there's a self-cleaning mode just to be safe.
