> 24 hourIve got Celiac disease & unfortunately go through periods wherein I spend more time than Id like on the toilet being in pain and uncomfortable. I got this so I could have support in both my en suite (where I use a plain old curved footstool that frankly I like better) and guest/main bathroom in my apartment. It was very easy to assemble and looks nicer than the plastic options, although Im not sure if its actually worth paying much more. (I do kinda hate that the logo is on it, as the one at Bed Bath and Beyond by the same brand does not appear to, because the brand name annoys me but I might just be a stick in the mud. Its not really a big deal.) Ive used both heights and prefer it lower, but the toilets in my new place sit much lower than Im used to and I believe lower than average. (Im a 164cm adult.) (Thats like, a little shorter than 55 for my fellow Americans.) This sounds fairly unenthusiastic but Im used to having toilet support due to a chronic autoimmune condition that affects my intestines, so let me just say: if you DONT have any problems, you should still buy one of these or something like it because theyre one of those things people just dont know theyre missing until they try one. I have never met anybody who regretted getting one of these things! Theyre great! As a bonus, your guests (when youre hosting guests again, because right now youre social distancing, correct?) with toilet-related medical issues you may or may not know about will no longer dread going to the bathroom in your house, and will be in a much better mood while visiting as a result. ;-)

> 24 hourInitial it was pretty good: Easy to install and matching all the description on the website. After using it for 6-8 months its starting to develop cracks along the wood fibers, especially where the screws go in. So far the cracks are cosmetic problem only but Im concerned about the durability

> 24 hourI was hesitant to buy but like some of the other reviewers I had been using other things that werent made for this purpose on the occasion that I needed it. So glad I finally bought the Squatty Potty. It works like a dream and I love the different heights. Sometimes I use the shorter and sometimes the taller side. It is aesthetically pleasing and fits tight around the toilet so it is not in the way but there if you need or want to use it. Easy to assemble and good quality. Really happy I bought this as it makes a definite difference.

> 24 hourBuy it you. You never knew you never knew you never knewwwwww your colon was plugged. A whole new world of intestinal pipes. I’ve never felt so empty in my life. I can never go back to life before the squatty potty. Is this the answer to global violence? Maybe. Is it the answer to your hemroids ? Yes.

> 24 hourI have the original SP and as with countless others, its transformed my time on the porcelain throne. Recently I added another bathroom to my house so it was time to order another SP. Went with this one because of the two height option feature and the nicer aesthetic. One big plus which I had not considered is it hides much better under the toilet bowl when not in use whereas the original SP still stuck out a lot. The drawback of this is there is less room for your feet, especially when using the taller height side. For me, its not an issue but I could see some people preferring the full footprint to rest their feet upon. I think the tradeoff of a better looking, more compact, and height optional model is worth the small sacrifice of less area for your feet. The other thing worth mentioning is you do need to assemble it. However it is extremely easy and the hardware is included (4 screws and an allen wrench). A nice detail added are little covers to insert over the screw heads to make them blend in more with the wood look. Assembly shouldnt take more than 5 minutes for even the least handy of individuals out there.

> 24 hourWhat the title says. I havent strained in many a moon. I will say the assembly is a little annoying b/c it requires those weird hexagonal screws that Ikea uses, but it wasnt too bad. Took about 10 minutes and has since saved me many more.

> 24 hourA friend got a squatty potty and hyped it up to me for a long time before I finally ordered one. I should’ve never waited so long!! It’s wild how much of a difference it makes. Highly recommend. Takes up less space than you’d think bc you can push it back against the toilet when not in use. Only complaint is it was a bit of a pain to put together.

> 24 hourI should have gotten this a long time ago. Its really straightened out my constipation issue. Who knew this could work so well ? Easy to put together, fast shipping and arrived before due. Package intact. Price was excellent. I havent had to contact the seller so I cant comment on customer service. Also the stool stays out of the way until needed by pushing it against the toilet. Its not an eye sore, you hardly notice it.

> 24 hourI have two of the original ones and while those work great, the white plastic doesnt exact look classy or premium. Im a fan of bamboo and the fact that this supports two different heights of 7 and 9 makes this a versatile option. Putting this together was simple enough with the included wrench and the instructions were simple to understand. My only negative feedback is that I dont particularly enjoy that the surface you put your feet on is slanted. This is a matter of preference of course, but I prefer my feet to be flat like they are able to with the original plastic version.
