Why you should have a Bidet?
If you’ve traveled overseas, you may have noticed that bidets are a common bathroom fixture. In the U.S., they’ve been slower to catch on but that’s changing fast. More and more homeowners are discovering the comfort, cleanliness, and savings that come with adding a bidet.
Here’s why they’re worth considering:
1. Better Hygiene & Cleanliness
A bidet uses a gentle stream of water to clean you more thoroughly than toilet paper alone. It’s like the difference between wiping a spill with a dry napkin vs. rinsing it with water you just feel cleaner.
2. Cost Savings on Toilet Paper
The average household spends hundreds of dollars a year on toilet paper. A bidet drastically reduces that cost, since you’ll only need a little paper to dry off (or you can skip paper altogether if you have an air-dry model).
3. Environmentally Friendly
Producing toilet paper requires a huge amount of trees and water. By using a bidet, you cut down your household’s paper waste and reduce your environmental impact.
4. Gentle on Sensitive Skin
If you have sensitive skin, irritation, or certain medical conditions, a bidet can be far more comfortable than abrasive toilet paper. Warm-water models are especially soothing.
5. Easy to Install & Maintain
Modern bidets especially the seat and attachment styles install on your existing toilet. They connect to your home’s water supply and require very little maintenance.
6. Great for Guests & Aging in Place
A bidet can be a thoughtful upgrade for guest bathrooms, and it’s especially helpful for seniors or those with mobility challenges who might find wiping difficult.
