Product review: Portable Travel Toilet Handheld Peri Water Bottle Manual Bidet foldable


 I have used manual bidets (Perl bottles) as part of my routine for many years. I have tried many models, and this review is based on a comparison of the materials and the construction of the ones I have tried:

1. Some bottles are made of plastic, while others are made out of silicone. I prefer silicone bottles because they are much easier to squeeze because silicone is softer and more pliable. When it is hard to squeeze, it is harder to generate a strong stream. This bottle is made out of silicone, so my first reaction was very positive. However, because this bottle is made to fold, it collapses in your hands as it empties; the air cannot re-enter the bottle, and thus, the bottle does not generate a good stream.

2. This bottle does not have an air valve on the bottom. The valve allows the air to enter as you squeeze, making generating a strong stream easier. The bottle without a valve makes very loud gurgling noises when the air goes in and out. If you are trying to be discreet in a public bathroom, it could be embarrassing. A bottle with a valve is silent. Because this silicone bottle folds as it empties due to its construction, the air has a hard time entering the bottle, and you need to straighten it out with your hands so the air can enter the bottle so you can continue to keep squeezing out the water. The result is a weak stream and getting your underwear wet as you don't have good control of the stream.

3. The package includes a waterproof pouch, which is very helpful when using the bottle away from home. The pouch is big enough to accommodate the bottle in its expanded form. This pouch is the best part of the entire package because it seals well. I am definitely going to use it with my other Perl bottles, where the bottle itself is unlikely to be used much.

4. It comes with a nozzle cover and a spray tip. The spray is stronger with the tip and nozzle removed.

5. The bottle folds. Its folding mechanism works very well. Unfortunately, the side effect of being foldable is poor spraying.

Overall, the folding is excellent, but the spraying functionality is poor. Perhaps adding an air valve to the bottom of the bottle could rescue the overall design.
