Tushy Bidets

“If there is one exceedingly simple but impactful change people can make in their day-to-day purchasing, toilet paper is it,” writes Dot, Bluedot’s advice columnist. That’s because Americans use a huge amount: up to 20% of the world’s supply, according to bidet attachment maker Tushy. That’s because Americans use a huge amount: up to 20% of the world’s supply, according to bidet attachment maker Tushy. Dot implores us to switch to recycled toilet paper; she also suggests using a bidet, which she says reduces toilet paper usage up to 75%. Tushy’s bidet attachments can be installed in under 15 minutes without a plumber. With prices starting at $129, the Tushy can pay for itself (via reduced toilet paper usage) within a year. One friend of Bluedot says: “I feel way cleaner than I did using regular TP … Every time I have to use a regular toilet now, I wish that I had my Tushy.” Each purchase helps build sustainable community toilet systems in India.
