I’m on the market for a bidet. My son suffers from encopresis, and I currently am suffering from a fissure. We’ve gone thru so many wipes (flushable but don’t flush). I’m wondering if this would be the best solution for us. (I’ll definitely be getting one that blows out warm water)

[@ManyBidets]

A bidet seat would probably be very helpful for your son. I'd recommend getting one with a risk free trail just in case he doesn't love it for some reason. www.manybidets.com/product-tag/bidet-seats-with-risk-free-trials/

[@markpennell4938]

Thanks for the video. You don't mention using soap. In a normal floor model bidet I think people might often use soap to be totally clean, for example prior to bedroom activities. How practical is it to use soap with these bidet seats? Do people often use soap when using them. That way is it possible to be as clean as after bathing or showering. Thank you.

[@ManyBidets]

There was one bidet made years and years ago that offered a soap dispenser called the Bio Bidet Premium BB-i3000 Bidet Seat, but while it was out, a study was done that showed that washing with soap back there too often depleted the body of good bacteria that's needed back there. After this was discovered the i3000 was discontinued and no one else has ever made a model that adds soap to the water since.

[@markpennell4938]

@@ManyBidets Thanks, that's interesting but I was wondering about using your hands or a cloth with a bar of soap or liquid soap on occasion. Is that practical and do people do that? What I am getting at is, how the functionality of these bidet seats compares to the functionality of a real bidet with regards to having a good wash before sex. Thank you.

[@ManyBidets]

@@markpennell4938 Thanks for asking. For the reason stated above, it's not recommended, however, how you use a bidet in your home is your call :-)

[@lecruset]

@@markpennell4938 I would say much less functional than your typical stand alone bidet. The add on seat bidets are more convenient, but the water comes out in a strong spray. Trying to wash with soap and your hand would make a huge mess as well as being difficult because of the small opening of a toilet seat.

[@DP-ih6nt]

@@ManyBidets so let’s talk “ladies”. Since the spray is spraying forward, and us ladies are to go front to back to prevent infections, how do you use the bidet to avoid splashing forward into areas at risk for infection??

[@ManyBidets]

​@@DP-ih6nt Great question! It's designed in a way that prevents that from happening and with having first hand experience with regular bidet usage, I have never had any forward splashing. In fact, a lot of customers add a bidet to their hygiene ritual to prevent that sort of infection.

[@carpassion96]

Found that out on my second day of use. Another tip if your bidet has a dryer, pat your private area with a little bit of toilet paper and let the dryer do the rest.

[@ricksheets5256]

I just bought a Tushy Bidet 3.0 and had it installed. I have a problem with it because the switch to adjust the angle doesn’t move when you angle it up. It stays in one position. If you pull it forward then it slides back. It doesn’t stay forward. Suggestion?

[@ManyBidets]

[@peterhui6161]

Do you wipe first before using the bidet?

[@ManyBidets]

If you are seated properly you should not need to wipe first. You may choose to dab dry afterwards if you do not want to wait for the dryer cycle.

[@JW-gc5ve]

NO! Don't do that. You'll smear the must-hangs and will-nots. Makes cleanup more difficult. ;-)

Do some of the bidets sprayers go back and forth? I just ordered a cheap one lol

[@ManyBidets]

Yes! A lot of the higher end models offer oscillating, where the nozzle moves back and forth.

[@ryanlaffan7064]

Should you use something to wipe or just let the pressure do the work?

[@ManyBidets]

You could do either, or a little of both. That really comes down to personal preference along with trial and error of what works best for you. Thank you for watching!

[@waltzofflowers7716]

Also i forgot to ask is, do i need to clean the bidet nossel or does it clean itself? I have an alpha bidet ux pearl.

[@ManyBidets]

Hello, for directions on how to have the nozzle come out for cleaning purposes I would reach out to Bidet King since that is there seat. But typically its never a bad idea to wipe down the wand whenever you clean the toilet.

[@nanasloves]

I love our bidet! I thought the subject of this video was about CLEANING the nozzle on a less expensive, non electric bidet. Please, please!

[@ManyBidets]

Every bidet is different, but most non-electric bidets' nozzles are spring loaded, so you should be able to just pull down on them and then clean them (I recommend wearing gloves). However, due to the fact that every bidet is different, and the fact that we specialize in electric bidets, your best bet would be to reach out to the manufacturer for the complete details.

[@lylelisle9568]

A couple of basic questions that are left unanswered. One, how do you tell when your butt is clean? Second, how do you dry off? In addition, what does this do to your water usage?

[@ManyBidets]

Trying a bidet for the first time is a learning experience. It may take someone a couple days or a couple of weeks. At the beginning its common to still use toilet paper as you're figuring out how to sit on the bidet, water pressure, and nozzle placement. After awhile you will feel confident that you wont need to check yourself with toilet paper. Most electric bidets have a warm air dryer, there are some that are more powerful than others but its very common to still use at least one sheet of toilet paper to dab dry yourself.

[@williampeterson2909]

I agree. None of it makes sense to me

[@samjohnson238]

[@ManyBidets]

As a fat man it’s hard to use bidet, even with spray hose. I found that my physical ability become harder to stand up - while bending- due to my weight. And, because of my large belly it’s hard to get my left hand to reach the rear whilst cleansing.

[@reagannelson5264]

You may have to cycle the nozzle more than once to get completely clean.

[@JohnTrogdon-wc1gk]

Some societies use their left hand to clean their rear, then clean the hand separately. With a bidet, the spraying water could wash the sticky poop and the hand at the same time if a person is flexible enough. Flush before washing. A bidet with a dryer would be nice to dry the rear. A clean towel might be a needed item for the hand afterward.

[@ManyBidets]

You're absolutely correct. That is something some cultures do, however, it should not be needed to get clean with a bidet seat.

[@JohnTrogdon-wc1gk]

@@ManyBidets I read all your material and none of it works for me. I have made sure of trying all of the suggestions. I even added a pressure pump to bring my water pressure to 75 psi. I still was not clean. It may be a result of my diet. I cannot change that.

[@Steven-gv1ke]

​@@JohnTrogdon-wc1gk toilet paper until clean, followed by a wet wipe, followed by one more pass of dry paper. I guarantee you it will be cleaner than a bidet alone. Do you spray your dishes with just water, or do you use a sponge and wipe them?

[@elza1830]

Water, hand, and ph appropriate gel wash, with energetic hand washing (under the nails also!) and sanitation at the end give the only throughout and hygeinic results (after defecation, aka "pooping" in baby talk). Rinsing doesn't do it, and the nozzle opening contamination, with the water passing out of it, and and carrying the contamination on, is an issue I don't see addressed, just "you might want to clean it...)

[@waltzofflowers7716]

First, I would like to ask is for a female... Can I use the rear wash option to wash up after number two? Or will that splash poop forward into the front lady part (vagina)? Sorry. I want to make my bathroom experience easier on myself because I have IBS but I'm nervous about this new alpha bidet ux pearl toilet seat that I had purchased and received today. I'm having anxiety about it because I've had UTI before for three years and it was a nightmare and I don't want to have it again. So I need a professional tell me how to use it correctly... Step by step. And second, I assume I need to flush the toilet after pooping and before using the bidet, correct? And will the water clean my butt cheeks also?

[@elza1830]

The posterior-anterior direction of the jet of water is utterly inconvenient for women and contaminated water reaching the vaginal and urethra opening is unavoidable by "practice"/ "contortions". Short of proper showering,a hand held shower head while sitting on the edge of a bathtub,allowing control of direction of flow,with ph appropriate intimate gel use after defecation, and throughout hand washing and sanitation at the end, is optimal.

[@scuttlebuttz7202]

I would not like the fact that you could have the previous user's "remnants" splash on you! How could it be clean without it being disinfected after each use?

[@ManyBidets]

Great question! Most bidets run a pre-rinse of the nozzle before use followed by a post-rinse as well. Some bidets even do this with sterilized water and/or UV sterilization of the whole nozzle. This helps to keep the nozzle clean for use but we still recommend routine cleaning of your bidet.

[@raythompson2936]

How come no body say anything about using soap or a towel? If you spray your bottom with water and stand afterwards don't your cloths get wet?

[@ManyBidets]

Great question! A bidet helps clean the area after a bowel movement as an alternative to toilet paper but using soap is usually reserved for use in the shower instead of a bidet. Most electric bidets have air dryers which folks utilize to help with the drying, alternatively dabbing dry with some toilet paper or reusable towels is another option folks utilize.

[@8beccaboo8]

It was not 100% intuitive to me at first that you should spray for 20-60 seconds and not just short bursts!

[@ManyBidets]

Thanks for the feedback!

[@dh4399]

Using a bidet is like flying first class… once done you’ll never go back!

[@Juice421fs]

How do you dry and make sure your clean? In my head I imagine toilet paper leaving clumps cause of being wet?

[@ManyBidets]

Great question! While many electric bidets will come with a warm air dryer, for those that want a quicker dry, using a bit of toilet paper to pat dry should get the job done without leaving behind any clumps or mess!

[@hcm9999]

I need confirmation. How do I know it is really clean down there? The bidet needs to have a mirror or a camera so I can see what is happening.

[@ManyBidets]

Patting dry will provide a good indicator whether you are getting fully clean!

[@ManyBidets]

I totally understand. That's why we talk about it in this video. It's not anything most people think about or even assume could happen, but it happens all the time. Some seats have an enema wash specifically set up for that purpose.

@@ManyBidets enema wash is just a strong stream of water, right? It's still external.

[@ManyBidets]

@@ask230 Correct

[@ask230]

@@ManyBidets I still have a hard time believing that a strong stream of water from an external source gets to intestine or flushes it in any way. There is a barrier of course that will slow the water down significantly when it just enters the body. But, hey, I could be wrong, and I do think those with issues can still get some relief even if the water doesn't get that far and doesn't "flush" in the way a clinical procedure would.

[@thisisyourcaptainspeaking2259]

I'm certain it's nowhere near as effective as a clinical procedure but mine will flush the bits from just inside the anus if I get it positioned just right on the highest flow setting. I have my home's pressure set to a minimum acceptable level, I believe peak system pressure is 37psi if I recall.
