Juvo Toilet Aid - Personal Bottom Wiping Tool, Bathroom Mobility Aid for Disabled, Elderly, and Surgery Recovery - 18" long wand with hygienic cover

Works great

I put off purchasing this type of item basically because there are so many on the market I got caught in the analysis paralysis cycle. I finally decided on this item and am quite pleased with it. It performs perfectly. It doesn't take much tee paper and only one wet wipe so will cut down on waste and effort. I advise users not to push on the plastic controls too hard since it is only plastic and lightweight. I don't expect it to last forever since it is made of plastic so I ordered a back-up since I don't want to be without it again. It has added to the comfort and satisfaction of my life. A win-win.

I bought this item because I had carpal tunnel surgery and was not able to take care of business on my own.There was a bit of a learning curve as I adjusted to using it but that’s true of anything that’s new. After some practice I’m pretty good with using it now.I have one for each of my two bathrooms and bought one for my travel hygiene bag (for privacy) for when I leave the house.I gave this item 4 stars because it can be a bit cumbersome and messy at times but still gets the job done. I’ve found that using a wet wipe (one made for personal hygiene) wrapped around the top and snapped into place at the bottom is best. Then I just deposit in my bathroom garbage pail (lined with plastic bag) which I empty frequently.This item has been a lifesaver!

After suddenly damaging my right arm and losing certain ranges of motion imported for actions like this in particular, I had to explore technology options as often I do. I bought 3 different units, and Juvo hands down is simply the best. Certainly not perfect, but as close as it might get without an engineer getting involved (which they ought to).Out of the box, it's simple to figure out and begin using, though like anything takes getting used to and building a workflow. Use of standard paper works fine dry against the rubber end, wet wipes not so much.Using a wet wipe, they pull right out slipping right off the rubber, and raised "grips" inside the clamshell flaps are vertical, so they just fall right now. This probably could have been avoided making the molded grip deeper and more interlocking to hold the wet wipes, or as I began doing is rolling up the end for thickness that clamps inside to help slightly but better grip types would fix easily without putting onus on users.Biggest issue so far as after 4-5 months, the locking mechanism stops catching, forcing me to have to maintain a grip on the unit constantly, and with range of motion and limited grip capabilities due to the nerve damage, makes this tough at times. Engineering-wise, the plastic catch on the back of the part that catches simply wore out from low-grade plastic in use. This is so far the most fatal flaw of the product, and know even replacing this one, the next will do the same eventually until v.3 of these come out. This already says "new and improved!", but apparently not enough. Please address this in future design revisions!Few other gripes, the rubber on the rip at the paper end could be longer down the neck. Occasionally get some mess spill over onto the plastic side and into the cracks that is hard to clean. Also the grippy rubber on the hand-side was delaminating even out of the box when I got mine, just indicative of QC issues in general. Also, the caddy thing is pretty useless, see no point to even having this. I'd rather they put a washable cloth sleeve and drawstring to put this in when not in use to store, take with discretely, etc. It's large enough it's hard to find something for it actually...It would be nice to see these little things reengineered better as this is the best product like it out there, I dare say the only I've found. Even if something I just know I need to reorder a new one every so often it might be worth it if the biggest problem with the latch locking just being due to crappy chinese plastic in use that spending another 5 cents would likely fix.

Review of Jovo Toilet Wiping AidI recently tried the Jovo Toilet Wiping Aid, and unfortunately, it did not meet my expectations. The primary issue I faced was that the product failed to securely hold the wet wipes or tissue paper when placed in its clamps. This design flaw resulted in an ineffective and messy experience, with wet wipes and tissue paper coming loose while in use.Moreover, I found that it often left feces on the wand, which is not only unpleasant but also counterproductive to its intended purpose. For those who require assistance with toilet wiping, this product falls short of providing a hygienic solution.On my search, I purchased the Hygienic Helper, which appears to be a far superior alternative. Unlike the Jovo’s clamp mechanism, the Hygienic Helper features claws that securely grip the tissue paper once folded over its distal end. This design emulates the natural motion of wiping, offering a much more effective and hygienic experience.In light of my experience, I cannot recommend the Jovo Toilet Wiping Aid, especially for individuals who struggle with toilet wiping needs. There are better options available, such as the Hygienic Helper, that deliver on their promises and ensure cleanliness.https://www.amazon.com/Hygienic-Helper-Personal-Limited-Mobility/dp/B0DTLJTLFP/ref=sr_1_6?crid=2ZS770QIP4FKS&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.Vn090Zb0s44im6hdkagsewd_GiOYyHj2DkObjYMfguyxjPYIowIXUJA0t_3lShbK5tYqTA9tRj6y_miWPRe6B8CleLOO_wyBTZ2oNg-BACbq8NQeo8yyiWnHdA5rjirZfDPqk1UrpFIi4vLJtfAcrhWoKVMuTgnKKjpXi5dLy-5sN5m_Zit7w60CHZVulexFhOjx0W_8MyBKtrZ_YdbzAB68TFlJVOIQPxd87JARRAQ24X49KjotTILGwISepQmPUbQcuu8ci7XbLt3dQtBtiJa_orbX33nSozpNwYtB_Jg.9sBtrocgDxMkMT2LUNoAydJvJ_-DAEvgoW2CdwSvCQs&dib_tag=se&keywords=Hygienic+helper&qid=1744591418&sprefix=hygienic+helper%2Caps%2C149&sr=8-6

My aunt had shoulder surgery so I got this for her to use and she loved it. It helped her tremendously.
