Toto Bidets

Bidet is an interesting word, it is French for pony. The bidet received this name because one sits on it or rides it like a pony. Bidets are not that common in the US, so an explanation maybe in order here; a bidet is a specially designed sink that is predominantly used for personal intimate hygiene, thought it can be used to clean feet or bathe a baby. Though the bidet is not commonly found in the US, it is slowly beginning to appear in bathrooms thoughout the country.

Toto is the world`s largest plumbing manufacturer, they have been in business for over 90 years. Toto was concerned about the environment long before it was a popular thing to do and embrace whole heartedly the ideas of water and energy conservation. Toto is committed to manufacture products where form, function and design meld together perfectly. Toto not only strives to have a luxury product but has received many awards to show that they have met this goal.

Unfortunately, a bidet is a piece of furniture that will not fit in the average bathroom without a major remodel. Toto has presented a new option, a Toto Toilet Bidet or as Toto calls it a `Washlet`. This is a toilet seat that was designed to fit almost any standard toilet. It uses a stream of warm water for personal cleansing and to make a great product even better, the tool that does the cleaning is self-cleaning.

The Toto Toilet Seat Bidet also comes with a variety of features depending on the model. Some of the features include heated drying, front and rear washing, automated raising and lowering of the toilet seat and even a massage feature. To add to the total luxury of having a bidet, it is should be mentioned here that depending on the model, all of these features can be controlled with a remote control. There is no doubt that for most of the US, the Toto Bathroom Bidet is definitely a consideration for improving personal hygiene in an effective and eco-friendly manner.
