I paid for a 250$ bidet toilet seat and i don't even use it. How is it supposed to work? My stool are soft sometimes, and even with the bidet pressure to the max, it doesn't fully clean it. I'm left with dripping wet ass covered with shit. Then i need to use toilet paper that's literally melting from all that water on my ass. As a result i use 3x more toilet paper and my hands gets dirty. Very unpleasant.
I believe you are, yes. I once stumbled upon this thread on Reddit , it kinda explains it well ! The
*o*o*o
Is pretty accurate. I've been using my bidet for around 2 years now and never once have I been in your situation. Now, I feel sad and dirty when I'm far from my bidet.

So much this. I've held my bowels when I had the opportunity to go just so I could shit at home with my bidet lol.
I haven't yet committed to a towel so I still waste toilet paper (though less), but it's also nice knowing if I ran out I could just let my ass air dry (speaking from experience).
Exactly, it's not that I don't have faith in the cleaning power of my bidet, but still I prefer to check it with a 2 sheet before drying out the rest with a hand towel !
It does sound like you're using it wrong. I've been using a $70 bidet attachment for 8+ years and it was the best decision I've made for personal hygiene.
Use toilet
Use bidet, making sure to adjust your position so the stream hits your o and the area immediately around it. Whatever poo may touch while going.
Use toilet paper to dry.
If you're spraying parts of your bum where poop doesn't even reach then you need to adjust the spray. I've used so much less toilet paper this way.
It's a single wipe on clean skin. Much less paper used. No abraison. No mess.
If you got shit on your arm would you be satisfied just wiping if off with paper?
You seem determined to take issue with the concept of a bidet. That's OK no one is forcing you to use one.
The toilet seat attachment ones are super cheap and convenient. You don't have to get up and go anywhere. You just turn a knob when you're done pooping and you get cleaner than you can with paper.
Feels good to be clean.
Like back to the arm poop analogy, if you for some reason were getting shit on your arm every single day, sometimes multiple times, then having to go do the shower soap towell thing becomes a hassle. Maybe it makes sense to have a special hose next to where you keep getting shit on you to make clean up easier.
Yet a lot of the comments here are like "LOL HOW COME MORE PEOPLE DONT USE THESE R THEY DUMB MY ASSHOLE IS SO FRESH"
I'll be honest. I never get poop on any part of my body ever. Maybe like once on my hand while I was sick cause I was so sick that I missed but that's not a common occurrence and probably hasn't happened since I was a teenager. I'm in my late 30's now. So that time is FAR far behind me. lmao. I don't have a perfect memory but I would definitely remember getting poop on my fucking arm.
But maybe if I had a child or something someday - and I had poop getting on my arm cause of the kid making it a hassle to change a diaper... well I'd probably use a baby wipe. Duh.
You don't need to use so much water, and move yourself around to make sure your aim is right. It's not a jet wash for your poop chute, it just makes wiping more efficient.
Mine cost like $50 and is probably one of my favourite ever purchases.
