I think it is a fantastic system. I think there's a bit of a knack to getting the jet aimed correctly. You don't want to send a shower of water up your back or up between your legs, round your balls and into your face. I'm not enormous but I find I can't get the bum gun into position without lifting my **** off the seat.
Once you have mastered it, you just hose your starfish clean and then dab it with tissue to dry it.
The western method is foul by comparison. You rub away at it with some tissue paper until most of the unwanted matter has stuck to the paper. Think about it - this is kind of like smearing and cannot possibly be as clean and hygienic as jetting it clean with water and then dabbing it dry with tissue.
Another reason for this system is that masses of toilet paper can cause problems with septic tanks and this leads to a very malodorous affair!
I love the bum gun.
I don't know how well I would manage with a squat because if I understand correctly, you have to splash water from the gourd over your clacker while using your free hand to physically rub away the mess. If I have misunderstood the squat and gourd procedure, hopefully someone can put me right.
