The bidet basin has the configuration and dimensions of a standard toilet which is somewhat elongated such that a user's hand can pass between the legs at the front and behind the user's back at the rear. A spray nozzle producing a rising water jet is placed in the basin. The spray nozzle is focused upon the private parts to be washed of the user's body. The bidet basin is fitted with a drainage outlet and is equipped with an overflow prevention device. A lever mixer of hot and cold water is located at the front and is handily positioned between the knees of the user sitting on the basin.
