There was a time when people felt weird about bidets. That time is, pretty much, gone. Nowadays, bidets are a common sight in many hotel bathrooms and commercial establishments. It’s not a surprise, considering the improved hygiene and reduced toilet paper consumption that come with washing instead of wiping.
In recent years, bidets have made their way as popular bathroom accessory in many homes, too, with the launch of simple attachments that make it easy to put one in existing bathrooms. Sure, bidets integrated into toilets and seats can still be expensive, but the rise of simple bidet attachments that can integrate into most existing bathroom setups have really made it very accessible.
For this list, we’re focusing solely on the best bidet attachments, as they’re easy enough to install without requiring any serious work in the bathroom. All you need to do is mount one on your existing toilet, slide it under the toilet seat, connect it to your water line, and you’re set – ready to enjoy the odd sensation of water spraying onto your nether regions with a simple press.
Some of the best bidet attachments are designed to go under the toilet seat, where they can hide out of sight and ready to spray water onto whoever’s occupying the toilet when needed. Others are designed for handheld use, so you can direct the water flow similar to a shower, giving you greater control over the washing process. Both have their pros and cons, so the best one for you will be a matter of individual preference.
These are the best bidets for improved bathroom hygiene and reduced toilet paper consumption.
Samodra Bidet Attachment
Pros
- Dual nozzle lets you target the front or back
- Self-cleaning mode
- Slim design
Cons
- Pressure might be too gentle for some
This bidet attachment comes with two nozzles: one angled for washing the rear and another for washing the front, making it an ideal bidet for women. Button controls let you quickly switch from one nozzle to another, while a large knob lets you easily adjust the water flow. We thought the spray was a little gentle, even with the knob fully turned up, although it’s apparently strong enough to get us properly cleaned up without any extra help. You will need to adjust your seat position as you start to feel the spray, by the way, moving just a bit to ensure it hits the desired target just right, since there’s no way to adjust it manually after installation. And yes, it’s easy enough to install, with the slim 0.2-inch profile fitting comfortably under most two-piece toilet seats and one-piece models with flat edges.
Omigo Element+ Bidet Attachment
Pros
- Dual nozzle lets you target the front or back
- Lets you choose between hot and cold water
- Slim design fits most toilet seats
Cons
- Hot water requires a sink connection
This bidet attachment works similar to the Samodra above, housing the nozzles inside a sealed housing, where they slide out of the bottom during use. It also has two nozzles aimed at different angles for separate front and rear washes, while a knob allows you to choose which nozzle to use. What sets it apart, though, is an extra hose included in the set that you can attach to the sink’s hot water supply line, allowing you to enjoy a non-electric bidet attachment that offers both ambient and hot water on tap, with the option to switch between them using a control knob. Sure, the hot water line adds a bit to your setup time, but not having to be shocked every morning by a cold splash on your butt just seems worth the extra hassle.
Bio Bidet Slim Edge Bidet Attachment
Pros
- Dual nozzle lets you target the front or back
- Rubber grip knob is easy to adjust
- Simple and easy to install
Cons
- Uncovered nozzles will need cleaning
A lot of these affordable bidet attachments take on similar elements such as a slim build, dual nozzles, and easily accessible side controls. This one, however, doesn’t have the retracting design of the previous two, instead using fixed nozzles that sit out in the open, so you’ll want to clean it to make sure you don’t have any dirty bits hanging off there. As with other fixed designs, you’ll need to adjust your position on the seat to get the water spraying at the directed target, although the different angles of the dual nozzles does make finding a good spot quite easy. We do appreciate the rubber grip on the control knob, which makes it really easy to choose the active nozzle and adjust water pressure.
Luxe Neo 320 Plus
Pros
- Easiest installation
- Dual nozzle lets you target the front or back
- Unique hinged design lets you lift up the whole thing for cleaning the toilet
- Hot and cold water
Cons
- Hot water requires sink connection
We love the more elegant styling of this bidet attachment, which looks just a notch classier than what you normally get in the category. It’s just a step-up from the typically similar designs you’ll normally find. For instance, you get metal switch and knob controls, which look so much nicer than the usual plastic fare, as well as hot and cold water options, so your cleaning stint on the toilet can go much gentler during colder days. Like a few other designs in the list, it has retractable dual nozzles for front and rear cleaning, although in this one, the facility holding the nozzles can be flipped up, allowing you to clean the toilet without anything in the way. This makes it a lot more convenient compared to similar attachments, which will require to remove the whole thing if you want to clean the covered areas of the toilet. More importantly, it does that while remaining slim, allowing it to work with most toilet seats.
Rinseworks All Brass Aquaus 360 Handheld Bidet
Pros
- Excellent thumb control knob works for both left- and right-handed users
- Adjustable wand length from 3.75 to 11 inches
- Two swappable spray patterns
- Stays out of the way the whole time
Cons
- Need to shut off at water supply to avoid leaks
Some people prefer a handheld bidet attachment design, since it lets you target exactly where the water is sprayed, while eliminating the need to install anything under the toilet seat. This is one of the most popular in the category, Made with all-brass components, it feels really well-made, all while giving you the option to choose from four lengths of spray wands (it comes with swappable wands between 3.75 to 11 inches). We prefer the second shortest (6.5 inches), as it’s long enough to get good reach while still being easy to manage. Your mileage will probably vary, of course, but you can try all four to find the right fit. It offers two spray patterns (one wide, one narrow), requiring you to just swap in the head that you like, with the thumb control knob easily accessible using one hand for both left- and right-handed users. Plus, you can put the mount right on the side of the toilet seat (it has an adhesive backing), so it’s both easy to reach while being out of the way. It’s also long enough to hook up to the sink if you’d rather have hot water instead.
HydraWand Handheld Bidet
Pros
- Unique J-shape wand makes reaching the spray target easy
- Easy to use thumb flow control
- Solid chrome-plated brass and stainless steel build
Cons
- More expensive than other handheld bidets
With a build that feels just as sturdy as the Rinseworks above, this handheld bidet attachment has found plenty of fans as well due to its unique wand design. Specifically, the wand takes on a curved shape that makes it easy to spray on your bottom without doing any twisting of your arm, which is a big step up in usability compared to other designs, which seem to be based on kitchen sink sprayers. Combined with the thumb flow control, this makes the bidet very easy to use, which many people who find other handheld bidets cumbersome are likely to appreciate. It also comes with a nine foot long high-pressure hose, so you should be able to connect this to the sink if you want hot water.
Tushy Classic 3.0
Pros
- Adjustable spray angle
- Offers phone and email assistance for questions
- Good water pressure
Cons
- Too expensive compared to similar designs
Tushy was one of the first bidet attachments we saw commercially, which is why they have a certain recognition in the category. Truthfully, though, they’re priced a bit too much compared to similar designs, although they do have one feature we like that might make it worth the extra expense. Unlike other under-the-seat bidet attachments, this one doesn’t use dual nozzles, instead relying on just a single one. However, what it does allow is for you to adjust the angle of the spray using a simple toggle on the outboard, making it easy to find the right spot, instead of having to move your body to reach the spray. It’s a very convenient feature. There’s also a knob for adjusting the water pressure and we really like that the highest setting does feel quite strong. We also appreciate the fact that the nozzle doesn’t cover a big section of the bowl like others, allowing you to do thorough cleaning without having to take it off. If you want the addition of hot water in a similar design, by the way, they also sell the Spa 3.0, which adds a sink connection and a hot/cold knob for just an extra $15.
