Hi Scruffy, I have heard of these. Do they do the job adequately ? x

This is a bit of a bugbear for me Scruffy. I can't for the life of me understand why bidets weren't more available and publicised decades ago. I only know one household which has one and yet it's something everyone should have.

And hospitals ??

So one with a dryer is just the obvious finishing touch ! xx

Not personally but like you a close friend with a deteriorating condition has one in the wet room.

It took a while to get it working properly but now it is a real plus.

Apparently they cost upwards of £4000.

Love n hugs

There's always a "but".

Yes, I have seen a lady who was having issues with local council's refusal to allow adaptation of bathroom into a wet room, and a toilet facility as described above. The lady was confined to a wheelchair with severe fibromyalgia , and greatly needed. The family offered when they moved to replace back to normal bathroom. I have heard they are great, and helps people who have limited capacity, washes, cleans and dries.

You've hit the nail on the head. This woman you speak of appears very similar to me. Although mine is the result of a car crash, way back in 1992, which has left me with additional brain and nerve damage. But, back to the toilet - I've heard they'll also make the tea!!

Not what you're looking for?
