GoBidet: Other Reviews

Posted 02.27.2002 by Dave (11998)
Yesterday, I posted my review of GoBidet -- the apparatus that turns your ordinary household toilet into a full-fledged buttsink.

I asked my roommates and my friends to try it out. Here is what they said about it.

Like Dave? He's featured in The Journal of Ass Production!


Hey Dave, I tried the bidet yesterday. I turned it on and it shot out pretty hard and it was cold so it felt like I sat on a water hose. It wasn't entirely unpleasant. I think if I ever figure out how to use it properly I might do some serious bathroom-hogging. Go bidet!

When I was in Paris last Spring, there were two toilets in my bathroom. I used one for peeing and one for pooping. Thanks to Dave, I now know that I was peeing in my bidet. Don't tell the French, I am afraid that they may come after me.

I'll skip right to the good part. Dave installed a bidet in his bathroom, and recently beseeched me to use it. I was skeptical about using a bidet at first, but Dave convinced me that it would be pleasurable. It was, and more.

I sat down on the toilet (the bidet is installed inside the bowl) and adjusted the arm underneath my dirty area. I engaged the apparatus and was greeted with a cold blast of water on my inner thigh. Apparently, I had not aimed as well as I thought. I started to panic and almost gave up; but in the face of adversity, I persevered. I tried again and I was rewarded with hot water cleansing the deepest recesses of my bottom.

My reaction? I giggled, wiped, and turned it off.

Thanks,
Justin Riservato


After getting squirted in the face and hair, I have found the device to be too troublesome to bother with.

Also, I didn't like how it was always there in the toliet, subject to diaherea splatters and the like.

After reading Colon Bowell's article and the subsequent discussion on the bidet a few months ago, I was definitely filled with bitter jealousy that I had never felt the cleansing rush of water squirting up my butt. Alas, my bidet envy subsided I as became resolved that I would probably never realize this dream.

I was visiting Dave's the other night, when with a giggle he invited me into his bathroom to "show me something." I assumed it was just another one of Dave's passive-aggressive homosexual overtures, and I would be met with the sight of hairy man-ass upon entering the bathroom. Or maybe he had let simmer an enormous load in the toilet that he wanted to share. Either way, I eagerly followed him into the lavatory.

He lifted the lid to reveal a chrome contraption attached to the rim of the bowl that looked much like an ice-cream parlor blender on its side. It had a few levers and a long nozzle that poked into the center of the bowl. His own bidet that ran conveniently off of his sink! He proudly instructed me on how to use it, ran some hot water in the sink to warm up the bidet, and left me to try his newest toy.

Just the thought of the running water that would be flowing into my anus made me have to urinate. And sorry Dave, because I really tried to avoid the bidet... I sat down with much trepidation and yes, a little fear. What if it was too hot, or too cold? Would it hurt? Would it tickle?

I slowly moved the nozzle into position, and pulled the lever back. I tried to guess the setting for lukewarm. And then, beautiful and comfortably warm water soared through my crack. It felt like a sensual massage of my private parts, and I sat there relaxed and content, until a small notion of guilt arose. Was this dirty and wrong? I didn't want to get too comfortable, since it wasn't my bathroom, so I quickly wiped the excess water off, and emerged a little lighter on my feet than I had entered.

I don't know where he got it, or how much it cost, but it was worth every penny. To think how happy he must be to every day be cleaned in such a manner, without a hint of discomfort derived from rough unforgiving toilet paper. Thank you, Dave for giving me a glimpse into a new world of pleasure. Thank you for that wonderful experience.

Due to the fact that there was no hot water when I got up this morning, my bidet experience was a little less than enjoyable. However, if I were to review bidets in general (and imagining the hot water)... I would look upon them favorably, but not something I would use on a regular basis.

Although I did feel cleansed, I also felt wet, which means that I had to use toilet paper anyway to dry off. So, for a process for which I try to minimize the amount of time spent, the bidet adds an extra step, which nice as it is, is not worth the extra hassle in my opinion. It does not eliminate the need for toilet paper which it claims to do.

In respect to this particular bidet, it takes even more time due to the ultra-sensitive controls which must be manipluated with precision accuracy. Turning it a milimeter too far, will not only clean the targeted area, but will leave the participant feeling as if they just had experienced a colonoscopy or an enema.

I suppose if I were in France, where the bidet and toilet have existed harmoniously beside one another for many years, I may be tempted to try it. However, as a rather alien attatchment to one's own toilet? I think not.

Not only are the many tubes and levers rather unsightly, but they also make your porcelain pot look like some handicap contraption invented for a digestive-specific malady of which I would rather remain blissfully ignorant.

Moving beyond the aesthetics issue, I can't seem to shake the thought that this thing is unsanitary. If you happen to be the only one using it, one false move and you may splash the metal spout with bacteria infested water, or pee, or worse. And then you go to spray these microbes onto your own skin...

And what if someone else is using it? You now have some stranger's butt juice to deal with. Would you use a public water foutain if someone else just licked the spout? Even though the water comes from inside, it still touches the contaminated spigot. Don't be fooled by the argument that the bidet pushes to the side, either. If you can still see it, you can still spray it.

As a seperate appliance from the toilet I may be swayed to bidet-usage, but as a gross mechanism spliced to the pot that you piss in, I'll pass.

I've been reading everyone's comments and appreciate them all. One question, How do you dry your self off after you take a shower? Due you use toilet paper, or a towel? I personally use a towel. My point is that the Gobidet completely cleans your bottom (as you stated) so what you need to do is a quick wipe with a small hand towel. At first I was scared that my bottom would not be clean, and I would be soiling the towel, but as you said it doesn't happen. My wife and I each have separate towels on the top of the toilet tank, just like we use separate towels when we shower.
Hope this helps, keep the comments coming, they only help.

Yes, but let me give you a hypothetical situation: You're washing your face, and in the blindness that comes about as a result of the fear that remnant soap residue will get into your eyes, you're reaching around the bathroom looking for a towel eyes shut, and you just so happen to run across you're "butt-towel." Dry off, only to realize what you've just done. Are you disgusted that the same towel you use to "wipe" has just taken a tour of your face(I would be)? And you can't say that your butt is completely clean after using the portable butt-sink, because an ass is still an ass. Plus, how do you explain to company: "Oh by the way, don't use the towels on top of the toilet, we wipe our asses with those" without feeling a sense of embarrASSment?

joe c and the pussy cats (not verified) -- 02.28.2002

Joe, just put the towels away, when you have company coming over, no need to leave them out, and if people are coming over, you happend to no like, leave them out, and hopefully they will dry their hands with them. If you know where your ass towl is, your not going to grab it and dry your face of with it. When you get out of the shower, do you not dry your ass crack/hole off, it is the same thing.

doniker (1555) -- 02.28.2002

When I am at somebody elses house and I use the bathroom, I rarely wash my hands after I shit and/or piss. I hate using the towels hanging on the rack, who knows what they have touched. I would rather have traces of my own urine and/or feces on my unwashed hands than touch those towels and pick up traces of someone elses bodily fluids. At home I usual use paper towels after I wash my hands. Hell, if I am in any public restroom, especially at work, after I wash my hands and dry them with paper towels, I take a paper towel and use that to push or pull the door handle, their is always some slob who doesn't wash his feces hands and grabs the door handle to leave the bathroom.

hey dave - congrats on your homemade bidet! it sounds dangerous - so who won the bidet name contest? I have a vague recollection of buttsink, but in my vain memory i seem to hink I suggested it... could this be true?

Dave (11998) -- 03.03.2002

The buttsink is indeed the new non-threatening name for the bidet. Was it you that suggested it? The entry was submitted anonymously... I never knew who the genius truly was. If it was you, then rejoice! For we can finally give you the credit you deserve! All praise Dan, toilet artist AND marketing genius!

Bill (22) -- 02.08.2003

Anyone ever used the portable battery operated bidets?

Are they as good as the stationary bidets?

They have a unit with a Warm Air Dryer

oooohh sooo nice!!

shanti (not verified) -- 06.05.2003

errr......... just a comment, why can't you guys just use a hose or wash your butts in the shower after taking a dump, WITH SOAP and water!!!!

That way, you have a clean butt and need not bother about whose towel you are using to clean whereever etc etc.......

by the way, cultures such as Indians, Middle Easterners and Latinos have been doing washing their butts for years! I'm sure it's a lot cleaner than merely wiping the shit off!!

one I had this chick at my apartment and she took a doogie in the bidet then she asked my why it did not flush - well least to say I went in there and the donkey choker I seen burned into my mind after careful consideration not to hurt feeling I pondered on how to get that gernade out - I could not scoop it shovel it or snag it - finally i broke it into little chucks with a plunger the she hit the lever and holy sheeet cacca , it was not pretty need less two say it was gross - people need to be educated with bathroom Machinery

A bidet will take a lot of the fun out of this forum. They (there are several devices all called the bidet) are so efficient and clean that you are going to have to work harder for your fun.
Be that as it may, you minds will be blown by what they offer - cleanliness is only the beginning. Seriously, folks, if you want to vastly improve the quality of your life check out my website www.bbruneau.com - I have written the first ever, ever, ever (how can that be in a post-modern world?) book on the bidet. All your questions will be answered

At my parents house in Brazil we had a bidet,like the ones in France; I mean side by side with the toilet. It was always a good thing to use the bidet, it was a refreshing sensation. Realy clean.

Elaine (not verified) -- 03.02.2010

this is a totally gross yet totally informative site, thank you so much for doing what you do and helping me decide on a bidet, tho the hot and cold debate is still up in the air for me, if there is any more information about it, could you point me to the cold poop section? thank you :)
