The Difference Between Bidet and Bidet Toilets

A bidet was originally a standalone sanitary fixture in the bathroom with its own water supply system. It has since evolved into spray bidets and bidet attachments, which are accessories with cleaning functions attached to toilets. These generally do not require electricity to function properly.A bidet toilet, in simple terms, integrates a bidet and a toilet into one unit, rather than having them as separate devices. In addition to the basic functions of a bidet and a toilet, it incorporates various smart features such as seat warming, warm air drying, and automatic lid opening. This creates a new product known as a smart toilet. These types of toilets must be powered by electricity to operate.
