My daughter started training herself at 16mo. She would sign ‘potty’ when she needed to go and I would put her on the toilet and she would go. She was using the regular toilet (w assistance) for a month. My bright idea was to get her her own potty, big mistake. She hated this thing as soon as I put it in the bathroom. Completely stopped letting us know when it was time to go. Tried going back to the regular toilet and then a reducer seat that you place on top, no luck. She’s now almost 18mo and not potty training at all. The product seemed fine to me, just a bad experience.

I would not change a thing about this seat. It is easy for my Toddler boy (27lb/ 33in) to use. He can plant his feet on the ground so he feels more secure. Smaller children could use it too. It is easy to clean: (I just empty, rinse, and wipe with sanitizing wipe). My LO can empty the bowl himself. It doesn’t have silly gimmicks (sounds, step-stool, etc) to distract a tot from it’s intended use. Can’t beat the price. We purchased multiples: have one at babysitter, car (usually easier than public restrooms), and home.Pros:Simple DesignGreat sizeEasy to cleanLightweightVery Cost EffectiveCons:I really can’t think of any

we also have the more expensive baby bjorn but we needed more potties and this one has a good price. This one is bigger and has a bigger footprint as well. Otherwise there doesn’t seem to be too much of a difference for us. We have a toddler so I’m not sure if the bigger size would be good with infants. We also have a girl and the pee guard is more than adequate. definitely not a travel potty.

I used this product with biodegradable diaper inserts like Flip, gDiapers, and GroVia inserts. They worked well with this potty, but the potty itself could be better if the potty snapped together before use. The fact that the two parts do not snap onto each other before the child sits on it is unfortunate because it causes the two parts to move, and doesn’t offer a secured, stable seat for the child. I hope that the company takes notice of this request. Other than that, it is a super compact, portable potty.

We love love love this potty. I actually recommend it to ALL of my mommy friends. Yes, it has its kinks but nothing’s perfect 🙂 Our daughter was potty trained at 21 months but she was always afraid of public restrooms, mostly because of the accelerator hand dryers. I was even more terrified of my little girl using nasty public restrooms. Enter the bonaco potty… I love that we were able to use our unused diapers then wrap it up as you normally would and dump it or store it for future disposal. The other systems we looked at had liners that leaked, or just kept the waster until you could dispose it….disgusting. We also love the small size making it very portable to take with us every where including the train and plane. I really appreciate having this potty, and not having to force my little one to use a public restroom. GET.IT.NOW!

I love the concept of this travel potty – a great way for easy clean up and also to use up those left over diapers. However 2 things Im not sure I love.. 1 it doesnt stay together well and 2 the diaper inside doesnt stay put too well. when my daughter finally used it (she was a little afraid to at first) the diaper shifted and we still got pee on the inside and had to clean it out. Who knows, maybe it was her. I like how small and light it is, and can still put it in my diaper bag in case i need it and she wont go elsewhere. I think it is worth purchasing to try out if you are potty training

Tempted by the low price and promising design, my wife and I purchased this potty trainer seat. They weren’t kidding when the product description notes “colors may vary” as ours arrived in a rather hideous shade of pink instead the attractive blue color shown.We could have lived with the color though had the seat been functional; alas it did not fit either of our normal, regular toilet seats. I highly recommend not purchasing this product.

I bought this seat for my 2 year old son who is just beginning to potty train. I already had a Baby Bjorn toilet seat but he didn’t seem to like it. I thought this one might be better since it seems like it would be a little more enclosed around his body and maybe make him feel more secure while sitting up high on the toilet.TO use this seat you have to lift up the regular toilet seat and position this one the rim of the toilet, then lower the toilet seat back down over it. Not difficult but you have to be careful not to let it slide down into the toilet bowl. This also means that to take it off you have to do the same thing. A lot more work than my Baby Bjorn where you just lift it right off.On our toilet, the seat shifted a lot. There isn’t any way to secure it to the toilet like there is with the Baby Bjorn. The only thing holding it on is the actual toilet seat itself so there is no way to stop the shifting.Another thing I found out was that my son couldn’t get onto this seat alone. Because of the high pee guard on the front, he has to be lifted up onto the seat. If you want your child to be able to use the seat by himself, this one probably won’t work.Now that my son has more confidence on the potty we are using the Baby Bjorn again…it’s a much better seat and well worth the extra money!FYI: This seat WILL NOT work on a ROUND toilet bowl. It has to be an ELONGATED bowl.I didn’t like this seat and we don’t use it anymore. I recommend putting your money into the Baby Bjorn seat.

I bought this as an alternative to yet another pricey BabyBjorn potty at the grandparents’ house. They recently remodeled their house and installed new toilets in all, but one, bathroom. The newer bowls are all elongated, and are too narrow to fit this toilet trainer seat from Nuby. Thankfully, the one older toilet bowl was more round and the seat fit! I was initially going to return the seat, because I thought it was a shame to only be able to use it in one bathroom, but we are making it work.I am very pleased with the size, color (I got a nice limey green), texture (the colored part is a type of rubberized plastic), and value. Our now 10 month old has been using the BabyBjorn potty at home, and took to the Nuby trainer seat without any issue. I also like the pee guard, as little boys are known to pee out of the pot. This one catches pee rather well. Success! (and all for less than top dollar). I’d given it the 5th star IF it fit all the toilet bowls you can throw at it. Also, what’s up with not being able to choose a color? Lucky I didn’t get pink for my boy.

I was hesitant to get my daughter the Winnie the Pooh version of this potty seat because of all the reviews saying how flimsy it is, and how it shifts around, and how it pinches, but my daughter loves hers. She’s 40 lbs and it doesn’t bend, or slip around when placed on the toilet as per the directions. I can see how the directions could be beyond some people’s comprehension. I mean it’s not like there’s pictures on the box that show EXACTLY how to use it or anything. 🙂

This seat does work for traveling, and my daughter likes Dora, but it is very unstable and makes me worried. I have to keep a close proximity to keep my daughter stable, and you need to make sure that you snap it open properly before your child sits or there is danger of pinching. The plastic just slides very easily on almost all porcelain bowls so that it is hard to keep the seat where it will be supported correctly. It is really only useful as a resort in public restroom with a large diameter toilet that can’t be straddled by a small bottom.

i suppose this seat is better than layering tons of toilet paper on a toilet bowl. this folding seat may be appealing to little ones because it comes decorated with familiar characters (e.g., sesame street, dora, etc). but there is nothing to hold it in place on a toilet seat. my twins can’t relax enough to ‘go’ while sitting on it because the hinges are flimsy so the seat feels like it’s about to give way under them. they’re small (27lb) 2yos, so i can’t imagine what would happen if they weighed more. save your money and get a more stable travel potty seat!

We are currently potty training, and this potty has really worked extremely well for us. The height and shape of the seat seem to be really good for our daughter, and the fact that it looks similar to a normal toilet is a plus as well. She gets excited about using it. The wipes fit nicely into the side of the potty and are at a place where she can reach, so that it makes it easy for her to help wipe. Of course, you have to buy the Arm & Hammer wipes to use that feature, but it’s still not bad. The bowl is a good shape for emptying fairly easily as well.I also really love the fact that this will eventually become a training seat that attaches to the normal toilet. Personally, we haven’t found the step stool option to be particularly useful, primarily because we already have a step stool for hand washing and there’s no real reason to switch to moving the seat back and forth. However, I’m sure the step stool could come in handy for some folks. The fresheners are not something I plan to continue using. They help a little bit, but honestly, this is potty training and it’s not going to smell like flowers no matter what you do.Overall, I would recommend this to parents gearing up for potty training. Our daughter likes it and we’re happy with the way it’s been working for us.

The potty comes conveniently already set up and the first thing I noticed when we opened it was the smell. Not a nasty smell, but a very nice smell that smells almost like something I can eat. It turned out to be the Arm & Hammer Deodorizing disc with odor eliminating baking soda which is used for odor control. I don’t think I’ll need an air freshener with that around. I love the fact that it can be used as a step stool and when my daughter stepped on it there was no fear of it tipping over. I must say that it is indeed sturdily made.Once it’s opened it comes with this handy convenient toddler flushable wipes. Yay for your bathroom toilet because we all know you’re not supposed to flush baby wipes down there. The great thing about these is that these comes as refills which can be purchased separately but it does come with 2 and each contains 36 wipes.The deodorizer was a very simple install. Just click and its in. Right above the potty seat. The only problem I really had, and it was a very small problem was getting the flushable wipes in the side where it belongs. I love where it is located. My toddler can grab it easily and when she finally understand how to properly wipe she can do this for herself.The white removable trainer seat can be used on the toilet when she’s big enough to use the adult toilet like a big kid. The green bowl is where everything is collected and is very easy to clean. It is relatively small compared to some we’ve seen but not too small to be considered unusable.We love that it is a complete potty training system. Now you longer have to buy a potty training seat for the toilet. You also don’t have to buy a step stool either. The deodorizer is a very nice added touch. No one really needs to leave the bathroom smelling stinky. This will clearly clear up all that stinky smell. You will surely be saving money in the long run by buying this and to be honest you really don’t need to buy the flushable wipes refill, they’re really just recommended.So yes we love our new potty and we recommend it! It gets my toddlers Two Tiny Thumbs Up! You can find a full review with photos on our blog GrowingUpMadison.com

I don’t really like how so many potty seats look like toys. The bright colors and music is just a distraction from the task at hand. This potty seat looks like a small toilet. When the cover is closed, it looks like and can act as a small step stool. I appreciate this; it means that when you walk into the bathroom, it doesn’t scream BABY TOILET!!!My daughter just made 1, and while we are not full on toilet training we are getting used to the potty. It seems comfortable enough and she doesn’t mind sitting on it. The toilet has a built in “splash guard”, which does get in the way a little when she is getting on and off the toilet. It isn’t removable, and I’m sure I’d be glad for it if I had a little boy. But I don’t, so I’m not. The lid has a built in spot for an air freshener. It’s a cute idea, but if I’m being honest I doubt I’ll ever refill it after the one that came with the seat runs out. However, who knows. Maybe I’ll find that it makes so much of a difference I’m willing to pay for refills. I feel the same way about the potty wipes. They are very convenient and fit nicely on the side of the potty, but I probably won’t buy those refills either. They are considerably more expensive than the wipes I use right now. I’m not sure why I would pay more for these.The top of the seat is removable and fits on an actual toilet. It is designed as a generic fits-all-toilets topper. This means it fits all toilets poorly, although I don’t know that any devices of this type would fit any better. I tried it on both toilets in my house. One is a normal seat and one is elongated. It fits MUCH better on the normal seat.
