        How does that work? I don’t have hot water or an outlet in my toilet room. Did you have to renovate, or was there service already?

          I have an electric one and just ran an extension cable. If I owned I would definitely install an outlet next to the toilet.

            Never considered an extension cord. Don’t think the mrs would go for that. Ah well. At least it never gets too cold here.

      We just got one. We even splurged for the fancy one that hooks up to warm water. It is life changing. I feel very dirty whenever I have to do a poo somewhere else. Underrated appliance, for sure.

        How does the hot water work? Did you need a plumber or an electrician? I don’t have either hot water or an outlet in my little toilet room.

          We bought a Tushy brand, and it pulls hot water from the plumbing directly under the sink. If you happen to have a sink right next to your toilet it might work for you. I’m not especially handy and I found Tushy’s instructions very straightforward.

            Thanks for the reply. I’m probably going to have to stick with chilly water. I can’t imagine how expensive it would be to re-plumb the bathroom for that. I’ll try to check Tushy again but, for some reason I always get distracted when I visit their website…

              At least in the US, we usually have flexible tubing that supplies water to the sink. If you’re mildly handy, you should be able to hook it up yourself.

      One of my life purposes is converting people to The Way of Bidet. I have bought over a dozen as gifts for people and pretty much anybody who is actually willing to install it and try it loves it and hopefully converts others in turn. Clearly superior to wiping in terms of hygiene, saving money on TP, and not irritating the bum.

          This has been discussed extensively on that website that we used to visit regularly. They wipe like that too. They don’t stand lock-kneed. It’s some sort of half squat.
