Many individuals enjoy the comfort and personal hygiene a bidet provides. Unfortunately, it is not always possible to find one away from home. It is now possible to take the comforts of a bidet along wherever one goes, whether this involves public restrooms, hotels, restrooms at work or the great outdoors
Hand-held travel bidets can be carried anywhere and will ensure that good personal hygiene can be kept up even in the most remote areas where no toilet paper can be found. Here is a brief comparison between two such products
The Boulder Bidet
This device, originally developed for trekkers, consists of a 225 ml capacity bottle with a specifically designed nozzle. At only 270 g when filled, it is a lightweight device easy to carry in a backpack
A simple squeeze of the bottle will result in just the right strength of spray and enough wetness to feel hygienically clean without being left to feel wet. It provides personal hygiene even in remote places without leaving a trace or having to carry large amounts of toilet paper, wipes or other sanitizing products.
This travel bidet can be used with either cold or warm water. It has a capacity of 200 ml and is battery operated. It has a stylish, compact design and is small enough to fit into a handbag.
It is simply to operate through soft buttons and has both feminine and posterior nozzles, making it more convenient to use with a most effective spray wash.
Like the boulder bidet, it can be taken everywhere, from work and public restrooms to camping trips and hiking treks, allowing perfect personal hygiene wherever the user chooses to be.
The Comparison
Both devices have their advantages. While the boulder bidet is a little larger and harder to place into a handbag, at only 270 g when filled, it does have the advantage of being considerably lighter than the Palm TP-100, which weighs just over 300 g empty. Not having to carry batteries to ensure operation further enhances this advantage. This makes it particularly useful for long hiking or fishing trips.
The Palm TP-100 Bio Bidet is more convenient to carry in a small bag, as it is altogether more compact. This makes it the perfect companion at work, or while out shopping, visiting restaurants, etc. Extra nozzles provide more convenience and better cleaning.
Its battery operation also makes it easier to use for individuals lacking the strength in their hands to squeeze a bottle. This makes it especially useful for use by the elderly, children or individuals suffering from infirmities.
Both devices ensure good personal hygiene at all times, no matter where an individual happens to be. While the simple operation and light weight of the boulder are more convenient for trekkers, the battery operated, smaller Palm TP-100 is more convenient for use in public restrooms, hotels, at work or at home for those unable to grasp and squeeze the boulder.
