Default Spaloos are awesome!

Just wanted to pass some info on. we recently came home from an awesome trip to Hawaii. We stayed at the Royal Hawaiian where each room had a Spaloo. For those of you who don't know what a Spaloo is, it's a toilet seat with a built-in bidet at a fraction of the cost. When we got home, I called Bruce from Spaloo inc. who directed me to the website (www.spaloo.com) and answered all my questions. If you mention the Val-pak coupon you can get $50 off bringing the total price to $399. That includes tax and free shipping. Of coure, a real bidet is almost two thousand dollars! three of our friends have bought one in the last two weeks! Talk about pampering! And in case you are wondering, NO, IM NOT A SPOKESPERSON or employee or anything like that. It's just that I found a great deal that I am just lovin! I figure you listen when I complain, I thought I'd share a positive for once!

Their website says warm water that moves back and forth and then a drying option. I almost wish I didn't just spend all that money on new clubs!!

Lol. That was very funny. Actually it not only regulates water temp, but has 6 different levels of power control and dries with warm air. No leaf blower here! Also has an option of oscillating water vs massage motion. Seat also has three different levels to heat the seat. Although typically here in TV we don't need heated seats, it can be turned off. We've had so much company just wanting to try the toilet! Lol

We have a similar gizmo in our home up north and it's one luxury that we had been missing a lot. When the ad came from ValPak, we decided to give the SpaLoo a try, since it was less than half the cost of the similar Kohler seat that we had purchased. Now that we've had it for a few months, we find it much superior to the Kohler. Recently, my husband had some surgeries, etc, that prevented him from using the shower. He could give himself a sponge bath for most of his body parts, but the spaloo kept him feeling clean and fresh in those "hard to reach" areas. I honestly think that every hospital, assisted living facility and nursing home should have these in every bathroom.

I think Spaloo sounds nice. We have seen several companies that make these "bottom washers".....plumbing suppliers mostly and also in the Disabled accessories catalogs....we had one about 20 years ago.....it attached to the toilet, and you could adjust the warmth of the water.

Sounds like they are getting more popular.

Can I assume that you need to have a 110V outlet installed near your toilet?

Perhaps you could offer a demonstration at the next TOTV luncheon.

I am not sure that the sensation would be.............comfortable. I am not used to liquid coming up AT ME. Usually when I descend to the throne, it goes the OTHER way.
