By 1900, due to plumbing improvements, the bidet (and chamber pot) moved from the bedroom to the bathroom.
Before modern plumbing, bidets sometimes had a hand-crank to achieve the same effect.
In comparison, an add-on bidet connects to the existing water supply of a toilet.
Many companies make bidet seat attachments that include remote controls to activate the water jets and air dryer.
Other furniture includes a washbasin, bidet, shower and mirror.
Elsewhere, water may be used (using a jet, as with a bidet, or splashed and washed with the hand).
In some cultures water is used (e.g., as with a bidet), either in addition or exclusively.
However, most general households utilize toilet paper, health faucets, or bidets (in some rich mansions) as well.
