Bidet myth busted: Bidets are weird

Bidet use is growing everywhere, including in the United States

There’s no doubt some resistance to bidets still exists in the US. But, as the benefits of bidet use come to light, the stigma around bathroom hygiene is shifting.

Do you need a bidet toilet seat like Bidetmega? Well, that’s a matter of personal choice. But, this year, many bidet companies are seeing doubled, or even up to eight times more interest in their products in the United States. It may be a matter of time before bidet fixtures are the new normal. Why not be ahead of the curve? 

Bidetmega seats are easy to install

A bidet seat replaces your existing toilet seat, attaching to the bowl. It draws water from the toilet’s supply line and electricity from a nearby outlet. With the press of a button on a remote, a wand extends beneath you and trains a stream of water powered by an electric pump to clean your underparts. Some bidet seats have fancy options, such as seat heaters.

Get all the features you want

While you can find a bidet for any budget level, attachments like Bidetmega have features like customizable water temperature and pressure, making it possible for you to curate your experience. With Coway bidets, you’ll also find a heated seat, a night light, and a Braille control pad. Not bad for a trip to the loo.

Toilet paper is weird

Who said wiping with dry paper is a good idea of cleaning after toilet use, anyway? Each American uses about 40 rolls of toilet paper every year, and the average household uses 150 rolls per year. Although you can still use toilet paper to pat dry, using a bidet can reduce the amount you use by about 75% on average.

Bidets just make sense

Using a bidet is an easier-than-wiping cleaning experience. And widely, users report a more hygienic, and more pleasant experience than using toilet paper. They also save you money and are better for the environment in the long term.

3Aerosol test conducted in a Biosafety level 3 laboratory with two Coway air purifier models, Coway Airmega 250 and 400 for removal of SARS-CoV-2 Aerosol by US based MRI Global, a not-for-profit laboratory and partner of US Department of Defense. The test was conducted in a 13.1ft3 chamber. Virus was aerosolized for 15 minutes and the product was turned on high for 2 minutes. Result showed each product effectively removed over 99.98% of the SARS-CoV-2 in 2 minutes. This is a result from a laboratory experiment condition and result may vary in different conditions. This result does not imply it kills SARS-CoV-2 or prevents the transmission of Covid-19. Coway Airmega 250S and 400S are identical to the tested models and has equal performance with an additional mobile connectivity function.

5The coverage area of the air purifier is based on an area where the air cleaner can make two air changes per hour (ACPH). An air change per hour translates to how many times an air purifier can clean an area, assuming the height of a ceiling to be 8 ft, in one hour. Therefore ** means two air changes per hour means that the cleaner can clean the area once every 30 minutes and * means air changes per hour means that the air purifier can clean the area once every 60 minutes.
