Top 4 Hygienic Reasons to add an Onda attachment to your toilet

Imagine if you got dirt on your hands and just wiped it off with a dry napkin. Would you consider yourself clean? Of course not. You’d wash your hands with water. Similarly, relying on dry toilet paper in the bathroom is far from the most hygienic or efficient option.

Onda’s Japanese toilet attachments (or bidet attachments) are the smarter, cleaner, and healthier way to stay clean and fresh. Millions of people around the world have already made the switch from paper to water, and once you experience the benefits, there’s no going back. Read about the hygiene benefits of washing with water instead of wiping with paper.

1. Completely Clean, Every Time

Feel as clean as if you just stepped out of the shower or bath, every time you use the bathroom.

Toilet paper smears. An Onda toilet washes. It’s that simple.

Water is naturally better at removing bacteria, residue, and odors than dry wiping. No matter how much toilet paper you use, it can’t match the precision and effectiveness of a gentle stream of water. With an Onda toilet, you walk away from the bathroom completely clean, with a fresh, just-showered feeling—every time.

2. Heal and Prevent Hemorrhoids

Cleaning yourself properly means removing harmful bacteria and other germs.

Symptomatic hemorrhoids are estimated to affect at least 50% of the US population at some time during their lives. If you’ve ever had hemorrhoids, you know how miserable they can be. Wiping with dry toilet paper only makes it worse—causing irritation, bleeding, and even more pain. An Onda toilet changes everything.

The gentle stream of water cleans without friction, reducing irritation and inflammation, and giving your skin a break from the constant rubbing of toilet paper, which is essential for both healing and preventing hemorrhoids. Warm water settings can even help soothe discomfort and further promote healing. Many people who suffer from chronic hemorrhoids say that making the switch was one of the best decisions they’ve ever made.

3. Better for Sensitive Skin & Health Conditions

Your skin deserves gentle care.

Water-based cleansing provides gentle care that is especially beneficial for people with sensitive skin. For those managing chronic conditions like eczema or psoriasis, or who are prone to fissures, the abrasive nature of traditional toilet paper exacerbates irritation and inflammation. The constant rubbing and chemicals found in many toilet paper brands can trigger flare-ups and leave you quite uncomfortable.

An Onda toilet eliminates that issue. Instead of scraping and irritating your skin, water cleans gently and thoroughly without causing micro-tears, which are both uncomfortable and can lead to infections. This not only alleviates discomfort for those with sensitive skin but also enhances overall skin health.

And for those recovering from surgeries or experiencing postpartum discomfort, an Onda toilet provides gentle care where it’s needed most.

4. Lower Risk of Infections

Cleaning yourself properly means removing harmful bacteria and other germs.

Bacteria love to linger, and toilet paper doesn’t always remove all of it. That means there’s a higher chance of bacteria spreading to areas where they don’t belong—like the urethra. This can increase the risk of urinary tract infections (UTIs), especially for women.

An Onda toilet help reduce that risk by washing away bacteria before they can cause problems. In countries where bidets are commonly used, studies have shown lower rates of UTIs and other infections related to poor bathroom hygiene.


Japanese toilets and bidets aren’t just for fancy hotels and high-tech bathrooms anymore. With customers all over North America, the easy-to-install Onda toilet attachments are becoming the norm, and people who try them don’t go back.

Why? Because once you’ve experienced real cleanliness, comfort, and better hygiene, there’s no reason to settle for anything less.
