I really wanted to love the Backwoods Bidet. Unfortunately, after getting it installed and putting it through its paces, I have to admit I’m a little disappointed.

I’ve been using this style of non-electric bidet for more than 20 years. Over that time, I’ve generally bought the cheapest one I could find on Amazon, or whatever happened to be available at Lowe’s. The last one I had cost about $69 and, honestly, it worked pretty damn well.

My biggest issue with the Backwoods Bidet is the water pressure and spray pattern.

The unit has four small spray streams, but it almost seems like they’re trying to form a committee and all meet at the same point. Instead of giving you four distinct streams with good coverage, they seem to reconverge into essentially one stream. The small orifices also seem to restrict the water flow enough that there just isn’t the pressure I’m accustomed to having when it comes time to actually get the job done.

And let’s be honest, that’s kind of the primary job description of a bidet.

I do really like the little lever control and the ability to move the spray back and forth. That is a definite improvement over the old-school method I’ve been using for years, which basically involved manually moving the target around in the stream. Or, as I like to call it, the “wiggle and rinse” method.

I bought the Backwoods Bidet primarily because I was replacing an older unit that was starting to look pretty rough. I’ll admit, the Backwoods caught my attention because it looks great. It has a much nicer appearance than the typical inexpensive plastic bidets I’ve used over the years.

Unfortunately, for me, it just doesn’t perform as well as I expected it to, especially considering the price. Even with the discount, I paid $109 for it, which is considerably more than I’ve spent on previous bidets that actually had better water pressure.

For now, I’m leaving it installed. The in-laws are coming to visit, so I figure I’ll give it a little more time before making any decisions. After that, I’ll probably either replace it with something that has considerably more water pressure or see if I can modify this one to improve the flow.

To be fair, I really like the design, the controls, and the adjustability. I just wish the performance matched the looks and the price.

After 20+ years of bidet experience, I guess I’ve become a bit of a bidet snob.

Unfortunately, this one just didn’t quite make the cut.

I'll admit it... I was skeptical. How much could a bidet really change my life? Apparently, a lot.

First off, installation was ridiculously easy. The instructions were clear, simple, and surprisingly hilarious. I actually caught myself laughing while installing a bathroom appliance, which is not something I ever expected to say. Even better, every single part I needed was included in the box. No emergency trips to the hardware store required.

Now let's talk about the first test run. The pressure is definitely strong on the full blast setting, but thankfully it's adjustable so you can easily find a comfortable level that works for you. Once I found the right setting, it was perfection.

I also love that you can adjust the spray angle. Whether you're fine-tuning for comfort or accuracy, it's nice to have options. And the self-cleaning feature? Brilliant. Nothing says "good design" like a product that cleans itself before cleaning you.

The real winner, though? No more using a quarter roll of toilet paper after those soft, sticky poops that seem determined to defy physics. You know the ones. With this bidet, a quick rinse and a couple of courtesy dabs are all that's needed. My backside feels cleaner, my wallet feels thicker, and the trees are probably sending me thank-you notes.

Overall, I absolutely love it. Easy installation, funny instructions, adjustable settings, self-cleaning features, and a level of cleanliness I didn't know I was missing. If you're on the fence, just do it. Your butt deserves nice things!

Fairly easy to install. The Backwoods part was easy. Disconnecting plumbing in place for 30+ years wasnt as fun. The controls are easy to use and they work. The water is your cold water temp as expected… or shockingly as you expected. Happy with the purchase. Using heavy duty toilet bolts is a good idea.

Backwoods Bidets delivered a surprisingly great experience from start to finish. Installation was straightforward and took less than 20 minutes with basic tools no plumbing experience needed. The instructions were clear, and everything fit seamlessly onto my existing toilet setup.

The design is another standout. It’s sleek and low-profile, so it doesn’t add any bulk or awkwardness to the bathroom. If anything, it looks like it came standard with the toilet. Functionally, it works exactly as you’d hope with reliable pressure, easy adjustments, and a noticeable upgrade in comfort and cleanliness.

What really sets Backwoods Bidets apart, though, is the branding. The Bigfoot theme could easily feel gimmicky, but they’ve struck a great balance it’s fun without being over-the-top. The packaging alone made the unboxing experience memorable, and it’s clear they’ve put thought into every detail.

Overall, this is a well-designed, easy-to-install product backed by a brand that knows exactly what it is selling!

I bought a Backwoods Bidet mostly because of the Bigfoot branding. In all seriousness though, I ended up absolutely loving the product!.

First off, installation was way easier than I expected. I have never installed a bidet before and I had it up and running in under 20 minutes without any issues. No leaks, no confusion, just a pretty smooth setup.

The bidet itself looks great too. It’s slim, clean, and doesn’t make your toilet look like some weird add-on contraption. It just blends in, which I appreciate.

Performance-wise, it does exactly what you want good pressure, easy controls, and once you get used to it, you won’t want to go back.

Never thought I’d be writing a positive review about a bidet, but here we are. Backwoods Bidets nailed it.

Trying a bidet for the first time ever was one of the most nerve-wracking experiences! But thankfully curiosity killed the cat because it’s been one of the most life-changing experiences. The Backwoods Bidet has literally washed toilet paper off our grocery pick-up list. It was so simple to install and the squatting stool was even easier to assemble, and the kids love using it too since it feels interactive. The controls couldn’t be easier to understand and it leaves you feeling cleaner than ever. I’d gladly recommend anyone on the fence about trying it to go Backwoods!

I always thought a bidet was a complex luxury item that would only be found in custom designed bathrooms of the wealthy. Backwoods Bidet changed my perspective completely. This product is affordable and can be added to any toilet in less than ten minutes. It is easy to use and effective. Now the only question is whether we put one in every bathroom in the house.

I recently received the Bidet from The Great Backwoods. It is an excellent product. Initially, I was impressed with the thoughtfulness and design of the packaging; it evokes a connection to nature and a bit of bathroom humor. Installation was straightforward. The instructions were clear and easy to follow, and I had it set up in minutes. The bidet itself is sleek and unobtrusive; it blends into the bathroom without drawing attention. Overall, I’m happy with the transition of using a bidet. I was hesitant at first, but The Great Backwoods has officially converted me: cleanliness upgraded, awkwardness downgraded, and the toilet paper budget is slashed.
