No Code Arcade Freestanding Bidet (1 Taphole)
A bidet is a low-mounted plumbing fixture or type of sink intended for washing the external genitalia and the anus. Bidet is a French word for pony (and in Old French, bider meant to trot).
This etymology comes from the fact that one bestrides or rides a bidet much like one does a pony. The bidet appears to have been an invention of French furniture makers in the late 17th or early 18th century, although no exact date or inventor is known. Theories exist that its inventor is Christophe Des Rosiers, furniture maker of the French Royal Family.
The earliest written reference to the bidet is in 1710. By 1900, thanks to plumbing improvements, the bidet (and chamber pot) moved from the bedroom to the bathroom. 1960 saw the introduction of the electronic bidet, an attachment which connects on to existing toilet arrangements - ideal for bathrooms lacking the space for a separate bidet and toilet.
they are very convenient for cleaning the feet, for example.
Despite appearing similar to a toilet, it would be more accurate to compare it to the washbasin or bathtub. In fact, the bidet is used by some for a baby bath, though there are others who recommend against this. Anyone who has mobility problems and finds it difficult to get into a bathtub, or is afraid of slipping in the shower, may find a bidet an excellent solution for maintaining personal hygiene.
The Bidet attachments are also becoming more popular with the aging community. Many within this community are finding that water is much more effective than toilet paper. Also the technical advancements of the bidet attachments are allowing users a hands free toileting experience.
For example, a company called Bio-Bidet makes a bidet seat attachment that includes a remote control. It also includes an air dryer that particularly benefits any individual with limited mobility either due to disease, accident or obesity.
Bidets are made in several different designs. They may have one tap which pours (usually warm) water into a china basin. The basin can be plugged and filled if necessary, or the water can be allowed to drain away. Other bidets have a nozzle which propels an arc of water up into the air. This jet of water is angled to easily attain the perianal and genital area.
