Amanda Rinaldi Dear Young Person, so so sorry I impulsively already bought an received one. I’m all set , but I have a kid named Lindsay in Portland, Oregon who would probably love this thing. I will try to link ya’ll ( I have to figure it out first). Anyway, great video. I hope she gets one (wink wink). Sincerely, old man Teaze
Not two hours before this vid appeared, there was a news report that Italy is struggling to cope with an overuse of water due to frequent hand washing. If it isn't one necessity's supply at risk it's another's.
that is plastics and plastic has ege they break done and you will have flooding in you home ckeck out Rim bidet no plastics pats is used on that products this plastic units are very dangerous to use in the bathroom that has no floor drain this plastic units are ok for chaina not for usa or canada
@@susanedi true, but life span on these are about two years, so by then you are replacing all hoses anyway, also a water flood detection boxes are pretty inexpensive on Amazon
I've been a plumber for 40 years and I really got a kick from watching this. The only thing that I would have done would be to install a recirculating pump so the water would not be cold from the start. They do make small water heaters that would fit under sink and run off of 120 volts. Great video. Thanks for sharing.
If you are going to go to that extent, why not just get an electric model that heats the water instantly (and get all of the other very nice features)?
Yes the hot water in the line will get cold over time and to get around that... just like taking a shower... is to pre-warm the system. Nobody stands under the cold water of a shower .. right?? When you know you are going to go... run the water hot in the sink first... then charge the bidet line... If you have a see through plastic cup..... you can hold it over the stream/spray (upside down to capture the spray) and feel the water of the bidet actually warm the cup
Americans experiencing their first bidet should be a channel on cable. 24 hrs. Just the faces, I'm not a pervert, but I honestly don't think it could ever get old. 😂
They legit need more reviews like this. Its detailed it's real even as awkward as it was to see u actually use it it's honestly what I look for in a review I wanna know how the damn thing works. Stop telling people but show or talk about it. Like a personal experience.
I own a different brand bidet, a cheaper version that my wife got me as a joke from an estate sale. It was brand new(so....it’s ok) anyways only sprays cold water at either a trickle to a fire hose pressure. I love it! I’ve used it 3 years now. And I still get startled by the first blast of ice cold water up my boo boo. It is a bit worse in winter months, but totally refreshing in the summer. You totally use less toilet paper. And right now TP is trading like gold.
I didnt buy this brand but a bidet was the best purchase i made last year. I even gave one as a gift to my sister who is dealing with injury that prevented her from cleaning thoroughly without one. Great product, period. Everyone should get one!
I have had one for many years (another brand) and here's a tip for the ones connected to both hot and cold water: Turn on the sink's hot water tap just long enough to get a steady hot water flow. This can be done while sitting on the toilet if they are close enough. Now, when you turn on the bidet seat, you'll get warm water instantly if it's dialed in corrected with the bidet seat knob. There's no need to wait until the water warms up while sitting and spraying ice cold water.
Ever since I've done promo's to Japan, I've been TP free for 20 years upon experiencing washlet's as they call them there. I got one as soon as they were available in the USA. Washlet's have morphed into attachable's and are down right reasonable dedicated shower's for your bottom blaster! $20.00 for cold water only to $50.00 and up for cold and hot water is a steal compared to investing into TP. For older folks and some young folks with IBS/irritable bowel syndrome and constipation, these washlet's are pretty helpful. The expensive all in one washlet's like the Bio Bidet 1000 or 2000 Supreme have an enema feature that dig's right in there and gets your mud hole spic and span inside, it makes one feel like a young spring chicken. Anyhow, once you've gotten used to it, you'll be okay with using your hands down there to completely wash your cheeks, crevice, anus and genital areas since you are taking a shower for your privates. To dry off requires a dry washcloth but if you're used to a hand towel or regular towel, carry on! The only downside to using washlet's is that you'll use a public facility when necessary (thank goodness for them in time of need) because TP just doesn't do it anymore. I have read posts from other's where plumbing facilities in some countries aren't able to accommodate washlet's due to poor plumbing or water is scarce etc so be aware of your conditions. If push comes to shove (no pun intended) there's a hose or the shower after you've relieved yourself on your crapper if that's available to you
I know this was to show us the installation and reaction but I am saving this video to my 'funny file' cuz all I got was comedy watching you on a bidet! What has my life become?! lol!
Bidet's and portable ones (squeeze bottles) are suddenly all the rage, though I have always liked using them when traveling in Europe and Japan. It's so much cleaner. Look at how many companies are competing with their versions of the snap on Bidet's now.
i bought one for the virus issue and i got one with warm water but found you dont really need the warm, i live in maine and its march and it wasnt that cold
Thank you Amanda. And thank you for your service - sounds like either Army or Marines - either way - honor to you. Great video - loved the look on your face the first 'shot'.
“Oh, HI THERE!” LOL! Thanks for the fun and entertaining review. I found your channel while looking for reviews on the Tushy from people who actually own one. Also, thanks for the link and coupon code. I ordered one right after watching your video.
I installed my bidet 4-5 years ago. It has three control dials. 1. Used to set the water temperature, 2. Controls the amount of flow and rinces off the spray nozzles, 3. Directs the water to one or the other of the spray nozzles, front or back. The water line connections are the same as shown.
Tried one on a trip to Japan. They have very fancy ones. It varied from a cold sprinkle to a hot enema. Would consider installing one at home. It did the job better than TP and for less $.
Great video! I applaud you for the straight forward honest review, and for assembling it your self. As an HVAC service technician I hope you have an understanding why plumbers charge what the do charge. They would have knocked that thing out in an hour max, and no leaks. So its their experience you are paying for. I'm not criticizing you, I'm really really impressed you got it done and put forth the effort with a great attitude. I have been wondering how those things work to by the way, thank you for the information! And by the way I have zero experience with making and editing videos like this . So it would take me more than 8 hours to produce a quality video like this. Thumbs up to you.
I am sure it won't take Amanda 8 hrs to do another one. That's why a plumber can do it so quickly, just like anything else, experience. Also, I usually watch several installations on RUclips of something new I'm trying to tackle before doing it myself. You learn a lot from just watching others teach you their tricks and proper techniques. I just put in my second bidet in the front half bathroom, it was a still a tight job because there isn't a lot of room to maneuver, but it was worth it.
I m argie, we ve been rocking bidets for generations; the good thing about bona fide, stand alone ceramic/steel bidets : they have a less "invasive" mode, not everybody is about the water jet-straight-into cornhole kind of life
I lived in Italy for 2.5 years as a teen due to my Dad's Air Force career. The first 1.5 years we rented a house from an Italian landlord because the San Vito dei Normanni Base had far fewer houses than they had families assigned to the Base. The house we rented in Latiano had a bidet in one of the bathrooms. I had no clue what it was. This was decades before Google.
Amanda your patience to install it is remarkable (if you call plumber how much will take?)but worth it imagine you feel you are off 100 %from stool remains,dust and smell...plus saving 70%of paper towels money if you use it to dry off after using..plus saving trees to make these paper towels..thank you for your so openly speaking to show very private action..you are cool and helpful nature..God bless you...I just subscribed after watching your useful vid...you can spread the word so it will be general habit for many reasons
Should have bought a Brondell. From opening the box to working it only took 20 minutes. Tapped onto the supply water line at the base of the tank with a "T" fitting and plugged in the unit to a nearby GFI outlet. It also has a dryer. Waiting for the model that has the "Audio Book" feature.
I installed a bidet sprayer attachment last weekend. Works wonderfully. I use only a couple squares of TP for drying. I don't know why Americans are so hung up and confused by this concept. Think about it...... if you got dog pooh on your hand, would you dry wipe it?
Haha OH MY GOD! It is honestly awesome to see that someone else struggled with the exact same things I did !! I felt like I was going crazy with all the " easy 5 min installation videos"! I got the cool version, so it was a bit more simple. But, still I wanted to cry/yell at least once when I got water all over my floor doing this.
I Loved your review here! 💓 🚽 I'm not sure whether to go with a cold only or hot&cold. After using yours for a while now, is mostly coldish water your preference, or is the warm a must have?
We installed a Bidet about 10 years ago and no more runs in my shorts LOL... I liked your video and candor. I also installed a stainless steel round towel hanger and we use a medium sized towel plus we have a soap dish and use the sink it all works and sure keeps everything clean so much better than toilet paper.
Its amazing that there was once such a great *'taboo'* about having to 'go' to the toilet or mentioning any thing about it. Even up to the 1980s TV shows, films or series would never or seldom have mentions about it or show a character going to the bathroom. (but I do recall an episode of Cagney & Lacey (two New York Female Police Officers) having a conversation in the 'restroom' in their precinct.) In the 1990s things changed when the Ally McBeal series aired. It broke new ground by mentioning and actually showing people in and using toilets! RUclips has no doubt broken this 'taboo' making this once 'difficult' and 'uncomfortable' (in every sense of the word!) subject more palatable and socially acceptable. Who could imagine 30 or so years ago someone on TV speaking about installing their own personal bidet in their home and speaking of the health and hygiene benefits that such a device would yield. We all have to 'go' but we get so embarrassed by this subject.
I've been enjoying this far superior form of toilet hygiene for nearly 20 years. How the timber industry ever took control of this universal 'need' in the first place I cannot fathom.
Girl when you had the first test run and your first expression, I about died laughing!!! You did great. I don’t know if I could hook this up might be worth paying someone to do it for me so I don’t break something else out of frustration. To cleaner bums across the world 🌎!!
I have the cold water one, it's actually tepid, room temp, unless you run it for a minute. On a hot summer day that cool spray can be mighty refreshing! 😏
Hi Amanda.... I just enjoyed your video so much that I felt compelled to ask you to do reviews on the new gadgets that are on the market right now... You are funny as well as concise in your descriptions... I assure you that I wouldn’t miss a single video... You have that entertaining quality about you & I love it...😊
I've used a bidet like this one for about 3 yrs and I love it. Bum is for guys who don't have "our gear" up there or if us women just want to clean "there" and not the pee part. If there is a women feature it cleans both areas. That is the type I have. Does use less toilet paper and with the hoarding going on here in 2020 March over the Covid19 virus... anything that conserves toilet paper is great... lol. My 8 yr old grandson loves to use it when he visits, but his mom is terrified to try it. Best purchase ever!
When in doubt, if you have enough pipe and the water main if off, install a sharkbite connector. Wow. This is a different model than I have seen with the added warm water. Also, sometimes teflon tape is a help. By the way, even though I’ve been battling things DIY for decades, I totally feel your pain. I usually figure a plumbing job will require three trips to the big box store for things I end up needing.
First let me say that Ur hard work and determination to get everything working was 100% perfect = That is something different = I never even thought about getting something like that to use in the bathroom= We all use flushable wipes = This is video I'll be forwarding =Thank U for sharing
Installed mine today. Was pretty pissed when the written instructions said to disconnect, to turn a piece one way when in fact it was the other way and I nearly broke it. But I figured it out... took about 2 hours to install the basic (cold only) and I have to say using it, it's a learning curve. Thanks for your video and the coupon code. They said it would take 3 weeks. Took less than a week for delivery. So happy I got mine.
I have a different brand, cold water only, they are great. I just ordered a new one with the warm water line, the cold water line is TOO cold in the winters of western, NY. But, life without a bidet is just savage.
I have a bidet attachment since two years ago. I bought it off Amazon for 19.99, installed it myself, in 40 minutes, no leaks, no problems, no going back! Fun fact; the French invented the bidet in the 1700s. It was dubbed "the prostitutes' friend." Bidet is french for "pony" because the actuall bidet, (not an attachment) is straddled...😘
Having been to Dubai 40 times and Thailand 10 times I got used to using a hand sprayer on my butt. Those places have warm water. Last week I ordered a hand sprayer and will hook it to my hot water. I keep my tank on 120 degrees. Cost will be about $22 with shut off that will go into my PEX line.
Dude. Bidets are the BOMB. Got one 2 months ago and my hole life has changed (pun intended) I can't believe I wasted my youth on TP. Now I only have to shower once a week!
You installed it just as any home owner might have done. Some may have a little more experience, but that’s all about DIY. At least this wasn’t on some commercial set where the vanity is 6 feet wide, perfect plumbing, all the correct tools, rehearsed, found potential faux pax on camera corrected those and “then” start the project on camera. I like DIY in a “real environment” not on a set or in some million dollar mansion the average person only sees in the movies where there is more than just tight confining space with little elbow room. And besides your reaction had us all laughing “with you” 😉😃. Keep up the great work!
Good job learning by trial & error. Suggestion- buy a couple diff sizes of crescent wrenches, channel lock pliers and some teflon tape & you're set for minor plumbing fixes/repairs. :)
I plan on buying one after checking out my plumbing situation. (I know that you get some cash from this - so honestly) What model did you use. If I buy the normal model will I still need to mess with my sink? I'm from New England we're a hearty people and drafts just seem normal (even straight to the b-hole). Awesome video can't wait for the reply
I have the Tushy spa model which includes the hot water feature (which comes from the sink) but if you just get the normal one, you won’t need to use your sink. :) hope this was helpful!
What are your thoughts about the Tushy bidet? Would you try it?
For a bidet review. You made this pretty entertaining to watch lol
Amanda Rinaldi Dear Young Person, so so sorry I impulsively already bought an received one. I’m all set , but I have a kid named Lindsay in Portland, Oregon who would probably love this thing. I will try to link ya’ll ( I have to figure it out first). Anyway, great video. I hope she gets one (wink wink).
Sincerely, old man Teaze
Just ordered one in case the world runs out of toilet paper. Luckily your code saved me 11 bucks, thanks!
I bought it. Surprised it didn't come with or suggest Teflon tape. Thanks for the warning of the first reaction. Lol
lol glad I bought 2 bidets for my bathroom and our main bathroom.... too many TP hoarders out there these days lol...
Little did she know she was saving herself from the TP war 3 months before it happen.
Seriously lucked out!
Not two hours before this vid appeared, there was a news report that Italy is struggling to cope with an overuse of water due to frequent hand washing. If it isn't one necessity's supply at risk it's another's.

I like this woman, she is entertaining as well as clear and concise and she made it a fun video. 10/10

Amanda Rinaldi are you still loving the bidet it’s been a while?
That's entertainment !

That is a great idea!!!
I was thinking that too . I wonder if the bidet itself has one built in ?
I like that, you can keep the electricity under the sink as well instead of routing power to the expensive $200 seats.

that’s a very transparent review and that reaction on the first bum wash is priceless 🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Random JEZ it’s very accurate though, that’s totally what it’s like.
Thanks! I appreciate that you installed it like a normal human, and then you actually used it on camera!
The number one benefit of the Tushy is that it prevents one from having to deal with the covid-19 toilet paper terror.
They legit need more reviews like this. Its detailed it's real even as awkward as it was to see u actually use it it's honestly what I look for in a review I wanna know how the damn thing works. Stop telling people but show or talk about it. Like a personal experience.

I just got mine due to covid19 toilet paper shortage. The cold water doesn't bother me as much as i thought it would

Yup the cold water one works great too 😉 and darn those leaks lol!!!
I have the cold water one, it's actually tepid, room temp, unless you run it for a minute. On a hot summer day that cool spray can be mighty refreshing! 😏
Great vid .
Information was on point .
Excellent blend of fun and serious.
Choice!
Nice video. I like the idea of a warm water option. Cold doesn't seem as if it would be very comfortable. Very informative. I may try this out.
You get used to the cold after a while lol 😆
Outstanding review with great personality! You may have a future in media!
Lol thanks!
I loved your first reaction! Lol. Glad you figured the leaks out.
Hi Amanda.... I just enjoyed your video so much that I felt compelled to ask you to do reviews on the new gadgets that are on the market right now... You are funny as well as concise in your descriptions... I assure you that I wouldn’t miss a single video...
You have that entertaining quality about you & I love it...😊
How fast does the water warm up? I'm on the fence between the regular or the spa / deluxe model
The same amount of time it takes for your sink water to warm up- for me about 10 seconds
OMG you made me smile more than I have in the last 10 days 🙈 thanks 🙏
❤️❤️hope you’re staying safe :)
BEST RUclips video I have ever watched :)
I've used a bidet like this one for about 3 yrs and I love it. Bum is for guys who don't have "our gear" up there or if us women just want to clean "there" and not the pee part. If there is a women feature it cleans both areas. That is the type I have. Does use less toilet paper and with the hoarding going on here in 2020 March over the Covid19 virus... anything that conserves toilet paper is great... lol.
My 8 yr old grandson loves to use it when he visits, but his mom is terrified to try it. Best purchase ever!
Lol!! I can imagine kids loving bidets haha 😆 I have used it to clean both areas in the past and has worked well for me
@@AmandaAngela yep. my other 2 grandsons like to use it even though their mom is also terrifed.
You are such a pretty lady, your additude makes you even more beautiful.
is there a left sided option? like for a person without an arm or something like that
When in doubt, if you have enough pipe and the water main if off, install a sharkbite connector. Wow. This is a different model than I have seen with the added warm water. Also, sometimes teflon tape is a help.
By the way, even though I’ve been battling things DIY for decades, I totally feel your pain. I usually figure a plumbing job will require three trips to the big box store for things I end up needing.
Ooo I haven’t ever heard of a sharkbite connector before but that sounds like it would work fabulously here
First let me say that Ur hard work and determination to get everything working was 100% perfect = That is something different = I never even thought about getting something like that to use in the bathroom= We all use flushable wipes = This is video I'll be forwarding =Thank U for sharing
haha it certainly was a task to put this thing together, but it works great and actually love using this :)
Amanda! We like your style, we're ordering the thing.
(A bit TMI, but hey, if that's our style, off ya go.)
Thanks!
So you didn't show drilling a hole in your cabinet to allow the hose to connect.
Just get it without the hot water feature and you won't have to drill any holes. You just you the hose that goes to the toilet tank.
small hole as low and back as possible, it's not a big deal
Installed mine today. Was pretty pissed when the written instructions said to disconnect, to turn a piece one way when in fact it was the other way and I nearly broke it. But I figured it out... took about 2 hours to install the basic (cold only) and I have to say using it, it's a learning curve. Thanks for your video and the coupon code. They said it would take 3 weeks. Took less than a week for delivery. So happy I got mine.
That’s awesome and I also applaud your installation process :) enjoy it!
The demonstration was worth the watch lol
Some pleasant humour, quite a laugh when you first tried it. Good show! Well done!
I have a different brand, cold water only, they are great. I just ordered a new one with the warm water line, the cold water line is TOO cold in the winters of western, NY. But, life without a bidet is just savage.
Oh gosh totally!
That was a great video.👍👍
I have a bidet attachment since two years ago. I bought it off Amazon for 19.99, installed it myself, in 40 minutes, no leaks, no problems, no going back! Fun fact; the French invented the bidet in the 1700s. It was dubbed "the prostitutes' friend." Bidet is french for "pony" because the actuall bidet, (not an attachment) is straddled...😘
Love me those facts! Hehe thanks for sharing :)
It’s never fun to find out you’ve been screwing the wrong way......LOL
🤣🤣🤣
Thanks for this video! Was very informative and funny.
You are hilarious! I applaud you staying with it and finishing the job ! I am now thinking how I can get hot water to my toilet!
Aw thanks!
I traveled to Japan years ago and they have these everywhere....they were actually pretty cool, worked nicely...and yes, reduced amount of TP. 😀
I bought a bidet last year. Glad I did, so is my family.
Yup every morning it's like GOOD MORNINGGGGGG. 😂😂😂
That’s exactly right 🤣🤣
Is the tush all wet when you finish? And what do you do then?
Nope not all wet; only a small area gets wet and usually the bamboo microfiber towels will do the trick to dry it.
use TP, you use very little, you need to check for residue anyways
Great review thank you! My husband Nd I both watched it! Our oldest got hers yesterday and she texted me that she liked it! Hers only has cold water
Great job.🏆 You turned a tedious job into entertainment.👍🏾You made a good video. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Aw thanks 😊
Depending on the location of the toilet you can use a shower massager hooked to sink or bathtub to get warm water.
LOL! This was entertaining AND informative. Thanks.
Hahaha this was so entertaining
I got an ad right before this video for a different bidet... Sneaky boys!
Lol totally!
I'm glad you didn't need to call their technical support that could've been a video by itself..Stay Clean..Good Luck !!
Just how do you manage to dry your soaking wet but when finished?
Pat dry with microfiber towel
Having been to Dubai 40 times and Thailand 10 times I got used to using a hand sprayer on my butt. Those places have warm water. Last week I ordered a hand sprayer and will hook it to my hot water. I keep my tank on 120 degrees. Cost will be about $22 with shut off that will go into my PEX line.
Thanks for the real honest review!
Dude. Bidets are the BOMB. Got one 2 months ago and my hole life has changed (pun intended) I can't believe I wasted my youth on TP. Now I only have to shower once a week!
Hilarious when you first turned it on.
Not that I would do the following but would it get me clean enough to go commando?
Lol i suppose so?
Your authentic and funny , Great video!
haha aw thank you!
I have had a version of this for many years and all of my toilets. I can’t imagine not having one
You installed it just as any home owner might have done. Some may have a little more experience, but that’s all about DIY. At least this wasn’t on some commercial set where the vanity is 6 feet wide, perfect plumbing, all the correct tools, rehearsed, found potential faux pax on camera corrected those and “then” start the project on camera.
I like DIY in a “real environment” not on a set or in some million dollar mansion the average person only sees in the movies where there is more than just tight confining space with little elbow room.
And besides your reaction had us all laughing “with you” 😉😃. Keep up the great work!
Good job learning by trial & error. Suggestion- buy a couple diff sizes of crescent wrenches, channel lock pliers and some teflon tape & you're set for minor plumbing fixes/repairs. :)
That is a great suggestion!!! Thank you :)
I got mine on Amazon 2 years ago I love it I don’t use any tp😷
I plan on buying one after checking out my plumbing situation. (I know that you get some cash from this - so honestly) What model did you use. If I buy the normal model will I still need to mess with my sink? I'm from New England we're a hearty people and drafts just seem normal (even straight to the b-hole). Awesome video can't wait for the reply
I have the Tushy spa model which includes the hot water feature (which comes from the sink) but if you just get the normal one, you won’t need to use your sink. :) hope this was helpful!
Priceless response, first tried these in Japan hotels 5years ago loved them.
Did you install one in your home ? If yes, which brand? If no, why not?
