Review by rebekah hamill : the best chair ever!!!!!

I started potty training my son early (at 11 months). Since I didn't have any other kids, I had no idea which chair to try. I first bought the safety first chair and it leaked, tipped over, and the deflector pinched my son. All of the chairs that I tried were too tall and my son couldn't touch the floor with his feet. Most of the chairs were just a plain seat, with no back or sides, and nothing to hold on to. WHat a nightmare! I decided to go back to [the store] and try another chair. While in the store I let my son sit (fully clothed) on the Baby Bjorn potty chair...he loved it so much! He cried when I took him off of it! It has a good deflector that is not able to pinch, it has a wide and deep bowl which makes cleaning a breeze, and it's design with a high back and sides make it comfy. It is also low enough that my son can easily get on and off my himself. I will definately use the Bjorn products for potty training from now on!

Review by E. Dustin "dustin8115" : The MOST SUCCESS of them all!

We are currently training our 2nd child. With our first, we had 3 in diapers, giving us MAJOR motivation to get him potty trained, so we tried almost every seat out there. Most of them were okay, but just got nasty quckly, were hard to disinfect, or were uncomfortable for my son. The ones with the removable splash gaurd are not gentle and can scrape a child's sensitive parts. Those were awful. We were "potty training" for a full year before we finally saw the BabyBjorn potty chair in a local botique, and DS immediately sat in it. He chose blue, and we took it home. Within a week, he was trained, and began using the "big boy seat", so we saved the seat for our daughter. It was incredable! Now our 23 month old daughter is training. We bought her this white babybjorn seat for our downstairs bathroom, with the blue upstairs. She has been "training" for 6 days now, and is almost completely day trained!

This seat is by far the best in our experiences. Here's why: 1. the seat has a higher back and sides, which gives the child support while sitting down, standing up, or simply sitting there. 2. It is NOT easy to tip! several of the others we tried tipped without much effort when our child was putting pressure on the sides trying to sit down or stand. 3. It is super easy to clean - there aren't a bunch of seams to gather gunk, it's easy to wipe down with a clorox wipe and be done. It's also super easy to take the little bucket out, and soak in clorox or hose down. 4. Kids can choose what color they want! This was such a big deal to my children --- also, they are solid colors that can look nice with your bathroom. The surface is also nice that your child can decorate the back with cute stickers if wanted. 5. It works for children of all different sizes! My son was 40" and 42lbs when potty training, and my daughter is 25lbs and a little shrimp, and this seat fit them both WONDERFULLY.

Overall, having tried MANY seats, this one was the absolute best for both our children, and I would highly reccomend it to anyone in need of a seat for potty training success~!

Review by Leanne Owens "Riley's Mom" : Simply the best out there...

After extensive research, I finally settled on this potty chair and I am extremely pleased with my purchase. I, like many other reviewers, was intially put off by the $22 price tag.

The problem I have with many baby products today is that companies try to make something a "new concept" by adding bells and whistles or attempting to make things multi-purpose. Don't get me wrong, I love technology and my daughter has tons of electronic gadgets, but potty chairs should not double as toys. Nor do I care to have my child using her potty in the future to stand on to reach the sink.

This is exactly what a potty should be... a potty and nothing else. Its ergonomic design and rubber bottom makes it comfortable and stable, even on carpet. It looks remarkably similar to a real potty because if its smooth, white finish. When I got it home my 16-month-old daughter immediately knew what it was and wanted to sit on it. She now loves to sit on the potty and this one appears to be very comfortable for her.

In a nutshell, it is simply made, easy to clean and perfect for potty training.
