Makes you happy (edit: for a short period of time)
We are living in US for a year now and this first year had its own difficulties. Having no bidet in toilet was one of them since all toilets have that in Turkey, already as a built-in function. We tried to solve cleaning issue by using wet wipes but it was a huge waste for both nature and budget. Then, an idea popped into my mind and I searched the internet to find a gadget that we can use for cleaning, and here it was (I didn't know the name of it - bidet- so it was hard searching for something with description only). This gadget was a life saver for us. Now we feel cleaner and happy. For budget, it was also helpful, it covered its cost just in 5-6 weeks with compared to wet wipes. In addition, we are also happy that we are not flushing away wet wipes damaging nature. The installation was easy in general, it was tricky to align the holes so that toilet lid will be centered. Its tricky because I always feel those regions are dirty even with lots of cleaning. And if you are not lucky its hard to get it at the first try. Pipe connections were not problematic at all. You need a teflon tape to make connections safer for future. There are some minor issues that I think manufacturers can address. 1) Since its installed under the lid, there will be always a gap between lid and bowl. Either bumpers should be included in the product box or base of the bidet must be much more stronger that it is now (ours has cracks on it since for the first 2-3 days we used it without bumpers which cracked the bidet's base) 2) Water pressures is hard to set, even very low setting has too much water pressure, there needs to be some engineering done for the inner pipes of bidet to decrease this pressure. After all, it is a gadget that makes you feel happy. Edit: after using for a long time we had some problems with its plastic parts. The plastic is not good quality for this model. It keeps breaking at several points, usually starts from connection point with toilet seat and it moves cracking other parts (see attached image). And we get several replacements but this time I felt like I need to share this situation with other buyers. I hope they get better quality plastic soon.
