    TP is not eliminated, just use much less.

    I'm laughing my [dry] butt off.
    Seriously.

    There's so much I reflexively wanna ask about the logistics and the efficacy, yet I really want to know none of it.

    Let's start with the required psi. If the aim is off, does it do vasectomies?

    I can see it now. Charmin v American Standard gets on the SCOTUS calendar early next year.

    Of course, NPR is promoting bidets as "more sustainable" than TP.
    Man, you [literally] can't wipe your butt without filing out an Environmental Impact Statement.

    OK, TMI time. As the designated bathroom cleaning staff in our household, I have a concern about "over-spray" and "unintentional splashing" by these devices. I don't want to have to wear hazmat protection while wielding the brush. JMHO.

    The thought does come to me as to whether the water is pre-heated? I mean, on a cold winter’s morning when the pipes are cold anyway, wouldn’t a good size jet of ice water aimed at one’s object of appreciation be somewhat destructive?
    I would think that after being brutalized in such a manner it might cause some sort of mental stress resulting in lifelong constipation just from the fear of letting go.
    My goodness, the backside has such a bad reputation to begin with that spraying it with cold water might bring up the possibility of having to see a psychiatrist just to get it to unlock.
    Spending $59.95 on Amazon for a machine that could potentially cost thousands in psychiatric fees seems a little off balance so no, I think I will use good old Charmin.
    Besides, after using a roll of paper the tube can be painted and used for napkin holders on a fancy dining room table. Now who in the world would want to give up something like that?

    On the other hand, think of all the money you'll save on coffee. ;)
