Bottom Buddy is the BEST BUDDY!!! ;)
OK! So NO ONE wants to admit that they need help with "personal things!" I know that!! Seriously, though, when my back went out, and I mean OUT... This thing simply saved my life AND my dignity!! I want to start out by saying that I AM a bit larger but I bought this for other reasons. 1. I was rather crazy in my younger days and my back is in shambles... Even my doctor referred to my discs as "tattered." When it got so bad that I couldn't walk, stand, turn, or even bend over, I knew I was in a pickle of sorts... 2. My arms are just short... Like T-Rex short... I know this and it is what it is... So, when I could no longer twist or turn or bend over, my short arms became a HUGE problem... I decided to start looking for options as soon as it became apparent that I might need something, and I am GLAD I DID!! I had read other reviews about cracking and breaking of the handle, so I got 2 just in case.... but that said, I have NEVER had a problem with them... and now I have one for home and one for travel... When I was in the thick of it, that is to say when I was in so much pain I could BARELY move, the Bottom Buddy kept me from having to ask for THAT kind of help... it LITERALLY saved my dignity, and probably much, much more... So, YEAH, am I embarrassed that I needed something like this??? YES! Of course.... but when I think of other people suffering like I did and knowing that I can help them find something that can help them maintain their independence and dignity with a good product? Yeah, I am willing to suffer a bit of public embarrassment to do that!! Sometimes I use it now just to be safe, if it feels like my back is getting 'out of control' again, just to keep myself from doing stupid things that could re-injure me and result in me being, literally, immobile again... NO FUN!! If you, for whatever, reason need some assistance... THIS is the product!! It does EXACTLY what it needs to do and it does it safely and easily... I tried another type before I ended up with the Bottom Buddy and was UNIMPRESSED to say the least... If YOU need assistance, try the Bottom Buddy!! It also comes with a little carrying bag... It is a bit cheap but it also does the trick... ... show more

It works and it lasts a really long time. Worth $40.
I’ve had this for years. Because I have a completely titanium spine. When I bought this, I just picked the first one the page. It doesn’t release to well anymore, but still works great. Nothing came up rated higher than 3.8 and were half the price. When I finally got to this one it was at bottom of the page. I’m 5’8”, 220lbs..and this is a life saver. Highly recommended. Even at $40. That’s probably why it’s lasted since 2015. Just buy it. 11” is more than you’ll ever need unless you’re really big. I may buy a cheap one for travel. I always forget something, so I’d just put it away with my suitcase. It does get stares if TSA takes it out of my bag…. ... show more

EDITED from 1 to a 4 Star. WARNING! NOT RETURNABLE.
EDITED: Ok. So I had back surgery and knew I'd need some extra help in the bathroom department. I got this thing and didn't find that it worked so well. I did more research and review hunting and bought another kind of butt buddy that looks like tongs. Those actually were good for using for the front (for a female), but found it lacked in ergonomics for the backside. Frustrated, I grabbed the Bottom Buddy and I worked the little rubber fingers back and forth, giving them a little more ability to move. I loaded the tp and smoothed it over the head of the wiping aid, and it had much more leverage to get to where it needed to go, compared to the tongs. Because I loosened the rubber nubs, it had an easier time dropping the used tp into the toilet, with the additional help of tapping it on the rim of the seat to give it the extra help it needed to dislodge it. It's not the most ideal way of taking care of business and it might not be the most intuitive, but it works if you get the hang of it. Here's a HUGE TIP for those who also can't wipe due to surgery, or other issues hampering that task; I HIGHLY recommend installing a bidet to your toilet. It was probably the most helpful thing for the task! If you do, make sure to do so with a toilet seat that is completely solid flat on the bottom or there will be a horrible gap between the toilet's rim and the seat. Good luck and happy wiping! WARNING! NOT RETURNABLE!! This thing sucks! I am having spine surgery soon and bought this because it had such good rating. I wanted to try it out before I need to use it and it's terrible! It doesn't release the toilet paper and you end up having to manually do it, which is kind of gross. Trying to shake it off in the toilet didn't work. Have to keep an pulling it up to look to see if it has dislodged. So angry to have wasted so much money on a worthless device. ... show more

I give this product very high marks....I injured my lower left back/hip (hairline fracture of L4) in a bad car accident 30 years ago and this product solved my problem of reaching without pain. Following the accident, after the doctors put me back together...including repairing two broken femurs(stainless steel rods which were removed a year later), I could no longer wipe from the right side (I'm right handed) and I had to learn how to do this from the left side which was okay for a while until I put on weight (I'm now about 360 lbs.) and I could no longer reach without it being very painful in my lower left back/hip...my chiropractor told me that due to my lower back injury, that part of my spine is developing osteoporosis(arthritis) faster than normal aging and it goes out on me a lot...I have to lean to my right to pop it back into place, but it's still painful when it goes out. I read several reviews about products like this one, but decided to give Bottom Buddy a try after seeing that it had been improved(strengthened) after earlier versions of it had broken. So far, since I bought this over a year ago now...it's held up very well...as good as the day I bought it. I prefer Angel Soft toilet paper at home. Once I learned how to fold the toilet paper properly(I pull off @2-3 ft, fold once in half & then fold that in thirds and insert the side with the loose end) and not bending back the rubber insert point too far...or putting it in too deep, it's worked perfectly for me...and the spring loaded release hasn't broken and I'm able to release it easily after wiping(front to back) for the first two, each with just paper, then flush, then a third with just paper & a fourth with a flushable wipe on top of a smaller piece of paper for support & flush to avoid clogging the toilet. *Note: if you're using really thin paper, you may want a longer length....@6ft before folding. I recommend this product to anyone else who (for whatever reason) can no longer reach. I still can't reach easily with my right hand, so I learned how to use it with my left hand...and it works perfectly for me. I like it so much, I bought a second one to keep in my master bath at home and a third one for my powder room. I carry the original one with me in my travel bag anytime I'm away from the house...also, I like the grey zippered privacy bag that comes with the Bottom Buddy too...it helps me be discreet. Great product!!....I can't imagine the quality of my life without it at this point in my life. Thank you :) ... show more

Received a defective unit
Unfortunately I missed the return window. I love the product- I had one work great for about four years until it hit the floor at just the right angle and cracked the handle’s narrow bend. So I purchased a replacement, and this time I’m not so charmed. The bulb, which should stay firmly in place on the handle, pulls halfway out with use. First it wiggled a bit, but I kept telling myself it was nothing- now I’m two months in and i’m stuck looking for a replacement. I can’t trust this to not pop completely off and drop into the toilet. I can’t imagine anyone who would want to fish it out of the bowl- and hoping you at least got your bottom clean before it died. As a disabled person who is struggling to maintain herself without help in the bathroom, this is very disappointing. I’ll probably try seeing if superglue will work, but I doubt it will. At over $40 this thing should really have better quality control before leaving the factory. Maybe I’ll just have to give another brand a try- I loved my first Bottom Buddy, but this one really sucks. I’m on a pretty fixed income and just can’t afford to toss down another $40+ on a gamble that this next one will work properly. Do yourself a favor- if you get a good one you’ll enjoy it, but if the bulb wiggles on the stalk the least bit, send it back and ask for another before the return window closes. ... show more

Not easy as a travel aid, but probably okay for just a home.
This would probably be good as a "stay in one place" assist tool at home. However, I needed something that I could put in my "Go Bag" when I left the house. It was too big for that.

A clever, effective solution to a private issue
My husband recently had shoulder replacement surgery and wears a sling; the opposite wrist is fused and won't bend. He has used the "Bottom Buddy" for a month now and is very pleased with it. As other reviewers have said, you have to learn how to use it, but it works! Use three squares of quality two-ply toilet tissue (Angel Soft, Charmin, etc.) folded over to form one square, insert the center of this square into the open "leaves" of the head of the Buddy (but not too far or the tissue won't release as well). Close the head, fold the tissue out around it to cover it, and wipe. Although the head of the Buddy looks big in the picture, it is small enough to get in there and clean thoroughly. I might add the appliance itself doesn't get soiled because three layers of tissue cover the head. There's a pin inside the head which pushes outward to "eject" used tissue when the leaves are opened. Very occasionally, the tissue will not release, and the opened head must be shaken or tapped on the toilet bowl edge. For extra cleansing, "flushable toddler wipes" also work well. We also bought the toileting aid tongs; these work well, but the Buddy is better for us because of it's greater maneuverability, with the simple round handle and button rather than two handles to open and close. ... show more
