> 3 dayThe potty seat is amazing. I love it. It turns into its own stand alone potty in case you dont have a bathroom nearby and the seat comes with 3 liners. Weve had this for 3 months and have used 2 of the liners and Im buying more. I do not recommend trying to go cheap and using a grocery store bag. It does come with a storage bag so you can stick it in a diaper bag, but the bag makes it bulky and its not durable. At all. I just threw it away. My diaper bag has an outside pocket and thats where our seat goes so no potty germs get in the diaper bag. Its easy to sanitize too.

> 3 dayI love this thing. It was well worth the money spent. We use it all the time. It will adjust to fit any toilet and my daughter feels safe and secure using it. I hate using public restrooms, but this thing makes the whole process a little more palatable. I leave it in my car in a small bag (along with a little container of antibacterial wipes) and it goes into the stroller when we are the zoo, mall, church, etc. One of my favorite features---and one that you definitely cant tell from the image shown---is that when it is folded out, there are little handles for the kid to hold onto. My daughter loves that and I love it that she isnt gripping a public toilet. We havent had to use it in the stand-alone position yet. Circumstances just havent required it. But someone said that you can make your own bags for it by cuttting a sanitary pad in half, sticking it in a plastic grocery sack. The pad absorbs liquid and you just tie it up and toss. Sounds fine to me. I have a couple in my car in a little pouch for the time when that happens. Very happy with this purchase.

Greater than one weekThis little potty has been perfect. It folds up really small and fits in our medium-sized diaper bag. We keep it under the car seat for emergencies, and weve taken it several places with us. Unfortunately, parks and other places dont always have bathrooms. Weve been potty training for about a month, and it has been crucial to have a potty on hand at all times. Little ones cant always wait, nor do they give you much warning sometimes! My daughter thinks it is so much fun to go on her little potty. She also likes to unfold the legs to set it up. She really loves it. We bought a couple of packages of the refill bags, but they were pretty pricey. They work fine, but arent really worth the price, so I think Ill try the suggestion from some of the other reviewers and just use a shopping bag with paper towels when we run out. Overall, its sturdy, well-designed, and works great. I definitely recommend it! It doesnt cost much, and youll appreciate the peace of mind.

> 3 daySo, I have purchased three of these since I misplaced two of them through the course of moving states and generally getting out with my kids. This is a fabulous product (hence the repurchase). This travel potty has fit any seat in any bathroom that Ive taken my kids into. It works with boys and girls and has no forward and backwards so you dont have to worry about orientation, really. The sides either fold out to be used on a toilet and act as handles for the kiddos or they stand and click in place so the seat can be used as a stand alone potty. Its easy to fold out and is very stable on the toilets Ive used so that the kids dont slide around. That is very important for the kids to be comfortable enough to go in a strange bathroom. I cant tell you the number of times Ive used this in a parking lot, park, or by the side of the road on a road trip. The handles even have a grippy, rubbery part that makes it stable when used as a stand-alone potty. It works great. The kids like the colors and they seem comfortable on it for a reasonable amount of time given that it is hard plastic. My kids have sat on it for 30 minutes sometimes, when needed. Its also easy to clean. I usually just rinse it off when I can and occasionally soap it down. The seat also comes with a fairly sturdy carry plastic bag with draw string and a few bags that can go over the potty and catch whatever the kids have coming for easy disposal afterwards. If you run out of those, you can use standard grocery plastic bags. Very good design, I think. Frankly, I mostly just put the potty seat on the grass or curb and make sure that the feet are uphill of the stream. The seat is fairly thick but I never had a lot of trouble stashing it in my diaper bag. I just have to clean out a few things first. The only problem with this potty seat is that it doesnt have a homing device so that I can locate my first two potty seats. Seriously, Id pay for that app. Happy Pottying!

> 3 daywe are about a week into potty training and so far this is my sons preferred potty seat. we also have a little frog potty and a seat that sits on a regular toilet, but I guess this is the one he finds most comfortable. I bought the reusable liner and I definitely recommend it if you plan on using this seat as more than just a travel toilet. Cons: I havent tried using this as a travel option yet. It seems like it would be kind of difficult at first, as it takes a minute to set up, too long for a newly trained child in my opinion. Im not thrilled with it as a seat on a regular toilet. My son kind of sinks into it and the hard plastic leaves red marks. Also, it doesnt work with a potty hook and we only have one small bathroom so I need something that saves space. Overall, if my son likes it then its a winner and I like that it has three functions. btw grocery store plastic bags work well too

> 3 dayI bought this so I could have a quick potty chair ready for my son who was learning to potty train. This seat has proven itself indispensable. It has worked amazing in the back of our Tahoe and mini-van for when those urgent needs arise and there is no bathroom in sight. The little bags that you use hold a lot of liquid and waste. My son is 4 years old and is 44 in. tall and weighs 36 lbs and he still uses it as a free-standing potty chair if needed when were on long road trips. We mostly use it now as a toilet ring to put on a standard toilet when using public restrooms or at someones house, as my son still doesnt like the size of the standard toilet opening. We just keep it folded up in the bag in which it came and carry it in his backpack. I absolutely love this thing and will be using it for my daughter as well. (I can also speak from experience that it does hold the weight of a 56, 130 lb woman...with absolutely no issues. It has been a life-saver!!!)

> 3 dayThis is great for travel. so far I have not used it on a public restroom. we have a CUV so when my soon has to go, I just pop the trunk and put the bag over this potty so my son can go. This came with I think 2 or 3 bags with the little paper towel in it. Major convenient. Per the advice of other reviewers, when I ran out of bags, I used grocery store bags and kept a roll of paper towels in the trunk. I place the paper towels in the bag and it works just the same. It is a little small. We first tried it out on our toilet at home and it is a little small but definitely convenient for on the go.

> 3 dayWeve owned this for a few weeks now and its simply THE BEST! Every parent with little ones potty training should get one of these! Our girl has used this potty-style in the back of our SUV, in the backseat of our sedan, on the side of the road, at the neighborhood pool, and seated-style on numerous public restrooms. I purchased the disposable bags with these and once I ran out, found a grocery store bag and 2 papertowels folded over works just as well and is more convenient and cheaper than the bags. This potty is comfortable for my girl, easy to transport (comes with a carrying bag), easy to use, easy to clean, convenient, inexpensive and has been invaluable for keeping in the car and using when the moment strikes! Great product! I might consider this my new go-to gift for new parents...even though theyd have to wait a few years until they can use it...its that wonderful.

Greater than one weekAwesome product. I travel a fair amount and didnt want to delay or jeopardize potty training my toddler because of my fear of getting stuck somewhere without a toilet. I used this mostly on top of public toilets for the first few months - and it was GREAT for that. It reduced the anxiety of my little one trying to go in strange places, especially when he had to sit for a while to, ahem, produce. We used it on airplane toilets, you name it. Then one day we were about to get on a subway train in NYC and he announced that he had to go pee... I pulled out the Potette, had it set up in seconds, and he was able to sit and pee in comfort (if not privacy!). You really do have to push the legs hard to snap them into place so it is sturdy - but if you do that, it is strong enough to hold my 35lb little guy without a problem. I also love that this is super small, lightweight, and easy to carry around. Cant say enough good things.

> 3 dayI LOVE this potette plus!!! I received it in the mail Thursday, left for a trip Friday. It paid for itself in the first 2-3 hours of the trip!! We had a 7 hour car ride with my almost 2 year old. Hes potty trained and refuses to pee in a diaper. When he said he had to pee, we just put the bag in, set it on the seat and he went pee and poop!!! Sitting right on the seat, NO LEAKS, NO MESS!!! I was so excited, it is only a bonus that it sits on the top of a big toilet also. Even if it didnt do that I would recommend this product to everyone who is potty training!!! BUY IT, dont hesitate, you wont be sorry!!
