Now That’s a Savvy Toilet

Back when I was married, one of the perpetual quests we seemed to be on was the journey to find a home with a bidet – or at least a way to fit one into our existing bathroom. My ex grew up overseas, where it was common to have a bidet in the home. He was very determined to find a way to make one fit into our bathroom. I was all for it, because even though we are not used to that particular fixture in the United States, there is no doubt it is a plus when it comes to hygiene.

Now, actually finding the room for an entirely new fixture was always an issue. I often wondered if there wasn’t just something I could attach to the existing toilet. That something would be a Spaloo. Tah-dah, hands free cleansing at your fingertips – so to speak. Not only does it provide a warm water wash, but also a warm air dry. Hands free, indeed.

I was watching a video review by Dave Graveline for his Into Tomorrow segment. Turns out installing the spaloo is just as simple as installing a new toilet seat. I just put in a new toilet seat here at the house a couple of weeks ago and I can attest that if I can do it, anyone can do it. Seriously, I’m really not that handy around the house and I can install a toilet seat with my eyes closed. Not that I recommend installing anything with your eyes actually closed. That would just be irresponsible.

Anyway, I digress. I’m really fascinated by the Spaloo fixture. I’ve got a tad of an obsession with being clean, so this piqued my interest from the beginning. So, if anyone wonders what to get me for Christmas – look no further.
