But, in my opinion, it is not a 100% replacement for toilet paper. First, everything gets wet after using-and if you’re hairy like me you really do want to dry it, and I use TP to do that. Also, I’ve noticed that it doesn’t always get everything-and using some TP to dry off is also a good way to make sure everything is clean.
And it also has a good bit of spray that will land on the seat and the bidet itself. You need to clean that off, I tend to do it with toilet paper when I stand up.
You won’t stop using TP, but you’ll certainly use less of it, I think I use about half as much now as before.
Yeh, same after we installed ours. Doesn’t replace the paper but we sure buy a LOT less. Also it just feels cleaner. I hate using the bathroom at other peoples’ houses now x.x
You should be able to get everything with technique, adjusting it, or simply running it longer. I had the same issue initially but it’s since been resolved. I fold a few squares of TP to clean up any water on back of seat and pat myself dry but that could easily be replaced with towels. I use way less TP too.
To be clear I’m definitely using less TP, but my point is that I still have to use it- and a lot of times when posts about bidets come up, they’re talked about as a 100% replacement to TP, which they aren’t.
Usually if it hasn’t gotten everything I just run it longer and with a bit stronger flow.
OK, so, I actually did this a few months ago!

We use bamboo cloths instead of TP, and we’ve liked it so far. They’re only used once before they get a good wash, and I love how soft they are.
