I have an Toto and do not have an outlet for it.

For women, you could be getting vag infections.

Out of curiosity do you add a personal touch to the towels.

Are they embroidered with your " Initials " or perhaps " His and Hers " .

More importantly are they top quality 100% cotton I'm talking about " Top Quality ".

I fell in love with built-in bidet (washlet) while working in Japan, every hotel room I was in had it. I finally convinced the wife to allow me to install one here in TV. Now she will never go back to the stone age ways. Cleared up her hemorrhoids and for me I often suffered fissures; no longer! I dry with 3 squares after the refreshing ~10 sec warm pulsating wash. With suttle movements of your tush you get into all the little crevices... At first I used a shared outlet but after realizing the blinking lights in the bedroom were caused by the bidet's cycling water heating coil I change out to a dedicated outlet ($200 installed). Ours is a Brondell washlet with the remote control on the wall.

Hello,
The Bidet you see in the picture is $300 plus tax Installed on the toilet. The Seat requires a ground fault electrical plug behind the toilet area to plug into. Our licensed electrician also takes care of the GFCI for you and that runs between $300 and $350 in most cases. So if you need the CFGI plug, add the two charges together.
I hope that helps.
Thank You

Hello,
Yes, you are right as far as the electrical outlet. In most cases, we have our Electrician install the CFGI outlet in a convenient spot on the wall behind the toilet area.
Thank You for your questions

My son just installed two in his home for a cost of $5,000 each. That did not include installation.

Apples and Oranges. The OP posted an add-on device installed on a pre-existing toilet. These are much more reasonable for most people, compared to installing a Toto (or similar) toilet with all the features, which can range from $1500-$6000

Has anyone who has bought one of these add on devices been dissatisfied? It seems that most of the people here that have one like it or love it. I see one post that says "tried it, not for me".

I'm wondering why it's not for you or if other people have installed one and don't like it for whatever reason.

I'm not just talking about the one that the OP sells. There are a lot of these on the market and I'd like to know the positives and negatives. It would also be nice to known which brand or model people liked or didn't like.
