MAIMOM Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Hey I heard of these and then saw one somewhere recently. I think it was in a magazine of good gifts. Just wondering if anyone has one? I hear they are popular in Korea. If you have one do your recommend it? I am thinking I would love one but I believe they are expensive. Does anyone know where to get them?

Tiramisu Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Dr. Mercola had been talking about an apparatus that you can hook up to a regular toilet. Perhaps you can check his website. I miss those toilets! In Japan, they have great toilets that wash the back and the front, controls to adjust things just right, a blow dry, the works!

jennynd Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 My Mom has one, she lives in Taiwan. I didn't use it at all when I were there visit few weeks ago. It is just weird.. I thought Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueridge Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 We had a bidet when we visited France when I was in high school. Very neat! Here are some that Amazon has: http://www.amazon.com/b?ie=UTF8&node=686953011 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAIMOM Posted December 13, 2012 Author Share Posted December 13, 2012 Ohh thank you. Possibilities. I think DH and I would really enjoy one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mommymilkies Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 This might be the strangest thread title winner. That said, I've always wanted a bidet. That's strange to say "out loud". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Toto makes a seat that goes on your existing toilet and has a wash feature. The seat is also heated. It has an air dryer too. http://www.totousa.com/Green/Products/Washlet.aspx The place I go to get waxing done has one of these. I'm sure they can hear me laughing all the way out to the reception area when I use it -- it is just too funny and also somewhat strange!

justLisa Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 This makes me gag. I hope it's not the same toilet water that flushes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaxMom Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 This makes me gag. I hope it's not the same toilet water that flushes? For me it's the concept that the water must spray up and then, because we have that pesty gravity thing, fall back down. Along with whatever it has cleaned off your tuchas. Which means that the nozzle in a public tuchas cleaner has microscopic (God help me, i HOPE it's microscopic) foreign tuchas, um, "stuff" on it, and that is just skeeves me out. Yuck. We did see a bidet "attachment" in Home Depot recently and just laughed ourselves silly because I fashioned the same sort of thing for spraying diapers and, based on the blowback from that, I just can't imagine it would be a pleasant experience... You might lose some skin! (I sincerely hope they've done a better job on pressure regulation than I apparently did.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Izzy Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 My 5 and 7 year old boys could sure use one of these. But I'm pretty sure they'd just end up soaking the bathroom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VeganCupcake Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 I think on the Washlet, the nozzles are self-cleaning, too. I really wish I could get one, but they are pretty spendy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forget-Me-Not Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 I'm guessing you'd want a hot-water line hooked up to your toilet as well. Because otherwise. . . BRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serenade Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 I have a toto toilet and it is my hope to someday get the washlet to go with it. Those things are pricey! I love my Toto! Tee hee, is it OK to love a toilet? We have them throughout our house, and my oldest son has not managed to clog any of them up, not even once. (He was clogging up toilets weekly at our old house) And my Totos have low water usage, too, but lots of flushing power. Totally Terrific Toilets!

Julie Smith Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 This isn't the most high tect toilet available. But here you all go... Oh, and a toilet commercial. (The most high tech toilet available when it was made. I'm sure it's not anymore, but still, it does come with a touch screen) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My SIL brother got one in Korea and she said he takes it with him wherever he goes. Will not leave home without it. They are a spendy item...gues I need to save my milk money.

Kalypso Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Check out this ad. My dd17 saw it in an Architectural Digest magazine and had to look at the website.
