    Tbh, I’ve never needed a hand involved.

    We have two, one that’s handheld, the other that’s an add-on to the toilet.

    Both produce enough pressure that what little might be left after a brief spray can be handled by a second. Never need a second with the handheld, since it can be moved around.

    Worst case, i pat dry with some tp and need a third spray.

    Never been to Europe, So i wasn’t aware it was common to use the hands to help the spray. The water pressure here is high enough in most places it wouldn’t cross my mind.

    Thank you for that info :)

      In europe bidets are different.

      They are meant more as a ‘general privates washing’ thing. So it’s not aimed at the asshole. So you either have to angle yourself in weird ways, or just use your hand to divert the water.
