Bidet: I don't know. I used one last summer when in Kaua'i, it was an addition under the toilet seat (which I didn't know you could do!) and it was a soft spray; the one my husband got when we got home is more of a jet. I can slowly open the spigot and get a gentle jet, or blast it if I'm in a hurry. I think for you just keep using the basin-water if it works. What I liked when I first got the bidet: I had hemorrhoids (why won't autospell help me with THAT word??) and the cool water was very soothing.
