Bidets have so many features, shapes and technologies that it’s hard to keep everything straight. So if you need a little guidance, we’re breaking down everything you need to know about bidets so you can have a better buying experience. In this issue we will start by sharing the types of bidets.

The simplest bidets are bidet attachments, which install underneath your existing toilet seat. You’re not replacing your seat, just putting a thin attachment underneath it. These attachments are by far the cheapest option, but you’re sacrificing a lot of comfort. Bidet seat attachments don’t have internal electric heaters, rely on hot water from your sink and, didn’t actually get noticeably warm during the time you spent washing.

If you want predictable, adjustable heating and more control over the water flow, you’ll have to upgrade to an electric bidet seat. Electric bidet seats definitely cost more, but for the investment you get a big upgrade in experience. The streams are gentler and more efficient, the water actually gets warm and you get other technologies like a heated seat and — our favorite feature — the dryer.

For your convenience, electric bidet seats with a good dryer are a great purchase because not only do they give you a better experience on the toilet, after refreshing water rinsing, hot air dryer is at your disposal to eliminate unpleasant humidity, but also the temperature is adjustable. What’s more, you end up using less toilet paper, which is great both for the earth and your wallet. For that reason, if cutting back on toilet paper is a big motivation for your bidet purchase, we’d definitely recommend getting one with a dryer.
