Kalencom Potette Plus 2-in-1 (Travel Potty) Trainer Seat White/Gray

This is small, but still works for our tall boy who has SPD. It saved us on our travels. It does sit low to the ground, but he was able to sit and do his business without messes. He didnt mind sitting on the bag, but didnt like the way he had to be careful when standing up (so he didnt pull the bag with him). Still, he handled the entire situation well. This is light, so it was not a problem carrying in my backpack it for hours as we went sightseeing. Disposal was easy. Just tossed in the wipes, tied it up and tossed it like used diaper. We used it while in the hotel room too, so we were able to dump contents in the toilet and toss the bag. He would not use it as a toilet topper, but if he didnt have his issues, I am sure it would have worked fine. Yes, I do sometimes pull out the feet when trying to collapse the legs. Not a big deal for me. I am thankful a friendly mom at school recommended this!

I purchased the Potette Plus before my son was actually potty trained to help in the training process and just to be ready. My son does prefer the Baby Bjorn Potty Chair at home as it is larger and more comfortable to sit on but the Potette Plus has worked out great for us when we are out and about because it is very compact and portable. We have only used it once on an actual toilet seat and that worked out okay (it was a little small for the size of the toilet seat making it a bit difficult) however we LOVE it when the legs are down and locked into place. My son has used it in the back of our car several times, on the floor of public restroom stalls, at relatives homes, etc. It has worked out great and helps my son feel secure in that he can touch the floor with his feet while using it. This is a great travel potty and highly recommend it for that use. Update on October 25, 2011 . . . Still LOVE this seat. In my first review I stated we only used it once on a toilet seat and thought it was a little small. Now that we have been using it for over 10 months we have used it many many times on public toilets and it works great. Anytime that my son uses a public toilet he uses this seat and it has been fabulous. We do still also use it with the legs in the down position as a stand alone seat for the times when he just has to go and we arent near a toilet and that still works great too. LOVE this seat. So affordable yet priceless for parents of toddlers.

This has saved us on long car trips a few times now. Once I started potty training with my toddler, I knew this kind of thing would be necessary as we live in LA and being stuck in the car for long periods is normal. We also like to travel and do some local car trips. When you are coasting on the highway or stuck in traffic around town and your new-to-potty-training kid says I need to go! I need to go! you dont have much time to drive to pull off and find a gas station. I just climb into the back seat and assist her as she goes right in the Potette on the side of the road with no problems! Its also much nicer than most gas station bathrooms anyway. Also good for camping when you dont want to walk your kid to the restroom in the middle of the night. A great tip from other reviewers: buy a pack of cheap panty liners and place one inside the plastic bag. They absorb everything and are way cheaper than what Potette sells. The legs do click in place and are sturdy once you hear that click sound. I keep one in each car.

I got this to have in the car because my daughter is potty training and it has done the job. It is exactly what I was looking for. Easy to open and fold. Love that I can also bring it to hotels to use over the toilets. I highly recommend it.

We’ve used this potty for 2 years and it has been a life saver. Many times we’ve been out at the park or on the road when little one needs to go. We use the bags with absorbent pads with this potty. Very easy to clean, we’ve sprayed it down or used wipes. We’ve also used it countless times in public restrooms to go over the top of the toilet seat. We carry it in a regular sized backpack, in its own bag, with other diapering items. If you are considering purchasing this potty, it will very helpful.

I am giving it 3 stars because my toddler got excited when he saw it. We tried it right away. It has no splash guard so you have to be careful as no matter if you use it on the floor or on the toilet, pee flies out. As other buyers said, it is quite flimsy, so flimsy that it makes me a little nervous to have my 32 pounds toddler sit on it while on the big potty. Not sure if I got a bad one but it is extremely hard to lock it into position, either if you want to have it in a potty position or as an insert for the big potty. Overall I still have to see how it goes. We also tried it with a shopping bag, I thought that would have annoyed my toddler out but he was strangely fine with it. Will update in a few weeks if needed. Update: my son and myself both hate this potty. We used it on vacation mostly to sit on top of regular toilets, this potty is terrible for boys, even if he holds it down it sprays everywhere as it bounces off the border of the potty. Both sides are the same, no real splash guard. It is very flimsy and every time I put it on top of the toilet I am afraid it would give in, so I hold my son. Not happy with this potty at all. Switching it from floor potty to seat is extremely difficult especially since you need to lock it in when you use it on the floor. To lock it in I have to push it so hard that I get marks on my hands, to unlock it I have to pull so hard then the whole leg comes off each time ... Then to put it back is another struggle, if I push too hard goes into lick position, if you dont push enough doesnt even go in ... Maybe i got a bad one? I dont know, all I know is that I hate it and so does my son. Update of the update: we keep this in the car. Have to say it has saved us in odd situations when LO had to go. We just pulled up, set us his potty and let him go ... I am still worried when I put this potty on top of the regular toilet as it doesnt stick properly, its pretty wobbly and unstable. It has no handles for LO to hold himself and as previously mentioned, the splash guard is non existant. I still do not like this potty but with time it got easier to fold it and open it into position. Convenient for the car and on vacation, I guess.

I think this is really a smart design and practical. I started off buying to potty train my two year old. She really liked it when it arrived on our door step so we started the process right after recieving it. I would turn on a potty time show for her around the time she was due to pee. Well it would take her awhile to go so her little tushy would hurt from it. Thats the only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is because with potty training and taking time to learn on it its a little rigid for the bum. I then ordered the silicon collapsible and reusable sinert for it and it took the edge off. If yiu are trying to buy this with potty training purposes to start with I suggest ordering the insert with it and starting with both pieces and using the disposable liners that come with it when you go out of the house.

When I bought this I wasn’t sure if we’d use it. Just this week we’ve used it twice and has been the best lifesaver in the car! Just pull over and get it done. No more stress while potty training and you hear the sudden “I have to use the potty!” The bags for it are worth it in my opinion.

Originally got this for my son for when we were traveling so we didnt have to find a gas station in a pinch and when you are stuck in a traffic jam and one of the adults youre traveling with needs a restroom... It works.

We’re in the car and she’s used this thing 3 times today within maybe 2 hours. I was inspired to immediately write a review if I hadn’t already. That’s just today. My daughter is 3.5 and she’s used this sooooo many times since we bought it over a year ago. It’s a life saver. I recommend it to everyone. I’ve used it before!!! I’m pregnant and you never know when you might not be able to find a restroom! Lol. Truly one of the best Amazon purchases I’ve ever made. We use plastic grocery bags and cheap diapers as replacement liners and they hold quite a bit. Just buy it. We’ve never had an accident in the car. Amazing product.
