The Bidet was one of the things that I was most excited about seeing as I anticipated my trip to Japan. I had heard about it, but I wanted to experience it. So within in my hotel room was the bathroom pictured above. I had to step up into it. It reminded me of a "cruise ship" compact experience. It was self contained and probably easy to clean.
I have extremely dry skin so I only use liquid soaps. They provided great liquid soaps, and I brought my own as well.
The Bidet functionality is available for purchase in Japanese stores for about $350 US dollars starting prices. I do not know how much plumbing adjustments are required but the bidet button is for the female front area. There is also a "spray" button for the "posterior" in which everyone can use.
The airport in Japan offered the bidet experience too. I was too intimidated upon arrival in Japan to experiment with the bidet until I got to my hotel room. I was like a kid with a new toy trying to see which spray button felt the best. You can adjust water pressure and temperature as well - but I didn't make any of those adjustments. The toilet seat was heated itself.
I would love to have my own bidet one day. I never thought that I would dedicate a blog article to a toilet experience, but there is a first for everything. I hope you love the education.
