Tushy Review: One Bidet To Rule Them All
A bidet attachment that undercuts the rest of the market on price without cutting corners on the clean, installed in about ten minutes with just a wrench and a screwdriver.
It didn't sing to me like the ones in Japan, but it did clean my butt extremely well.
Our reviewerThe Bidet That Finally Made Sense
Bidets are common enough in Japan to make their near-absence in the US feel odd, and pricing is a big part of why: most standalone bidets start at $400 or more. Tushy undercuts that dramatically, starting at $69 for the cold-water version, with an $84 warm-water option for anyone who wants temperature control.
Installation lived up to the promise — about 10 minutes with only a wrench and a screwdriver, aided by Tushy's own instructional video. Anyone still nervous about the process has the option to hire a TaskRabbit rather than DIY it.
In actual use, the Tushy performed exactly as a bidet should: no bells and whistles, but a genuinely effective clean. The dial has one quirk worth knowing ahead of time — it reaches full spray pressure after only about 10% of the turn, so the wide-feeling range is a bit deceptive until you've used it once.
The only other snag during setup was a pair of oversized rubber washers that aren't obviously explained; they're for positioning the Tushy on the toilet, not the hose, which wasn't clear without reading further into the instructions.
At roughly a quarter of the price of the cheapest bidet on Amazon, Tushy is easy to recommend without reservation — and the savings on toilet paper alone start paying it back over time.

Our Hands-On Review
Installation took about 10 minutes with just a wrench and a screwdriver, following Tushy's own instructional video — genuinely a breeze, even for anyone who typically avoids DIY plumbing.
In use, the Tushy delivered on the core function: an effective clean, cold water included. The one adjustment period is the pressure dial — its range looks wide, but the spray reaches full blast after only about 10% of the turn, so it's worth dialing in gently the first time.
A Small Setup Surprise
Two oversized rubber washers in the box caused some initial confusion — they looked too big to fit the hose, and it took reading further into the instructions to learn they're actually for positioning the Tushy against the toilet itself.
