Product Information

Our editors and their kiddos tested 22 potty chairs and seats in the comfort of their home, assessing each on several attributes, such as stability, ease of cleaning, design, and overall value. We also consulted with Arthur Lavin, MD, FAAP, a pediatrician at Akron Children's Hospital in Ohio, for guidance on toilet training for both kiddos and parents/caregivers.

Over-the-toilet seat: Many parents say that getting their child used to using the big toilet is easier when they start training with an over-the-toilet seat. These may also come with an attached ladder or step stool. There’s less cleanup involved because their mess goes right into the toilet to be flushed. Still, you’ll have to remove it when you go to the bathroom. Summer Infant My Size Potty: While this potty resembles a real toilet, it slid on tile flooring easily, and the realistic flusher was a distraction for our tester. and below: We don't recommend potty chairs with this rating; you won't find any on our list. We Also TestedFreestanding training toilet: These basically miniature toilets that some children love because they get excited about having their own place to go — and some even make flushing sounds. However, these take up more room and require more cleanup.

We had a carry potty, which is brilliant. They are expensive but ours has never leaked, it is easy to clean and at a comfortable height for our lo.’ - recommended by Mumsnet user, Gertrudetheadelie Our verdict Please be aware that we currently cannot arrange for delivery of this product to the following postcodes: AB, FK, HS, IV, KA, KW, PA, PH, ZE, LL58-LL78, IM, TR, BT, PO30-41. Safety: For potty training seats that sit on the floor, make sure there is some sort of non-skid padding on the bottom so that the seat doesn’t slide out from under your child. It also shouldn’t tip over or move easily when pushed. The same goes for potty training seats that go on top of your toilet: You should look for those with non-slip edges for a secure fit.

The inward-facing splash guard prevents spills outside the toilet, which is handy for potty-training boys. The lip [splash guard] also isn't as invasive as other potty seats we've tried, which either get in the way or cause my son to have to spread his legs too far apart to sit comfortably. It’s really helpful to be able to pop the seat off because my daughter loves her choices of the big toilet or small toilet,” says Alexandra Bisonó, Senior Art Director at What to Expect. “When we’ve used the big toilet with this seat, I’ve found it is really nicely cushioned to others we had tried that are plastic and hard.” The Summer Infant My Travel Potty Deluxe works in two ways: Potty chair and potty ring (a.k.a. toilet insert or trainer). We find the the potty is stable when used on a flat surface as a potty chair. The legs of the potty extend out and snap into place, so you know it's ready to go, but It is less stable when placed on top of an existing toilet seat. We'd be wary of using it for that purpose without careful adult supervision. Since it doesn't have any extras like a step ladder or handle bars on the side for stability, it's important to always have an adult there when your child is using this seat. Unless you also get a step stool, they'll definitely need help getting up and down from the potty and may want you to offer support to make sure they do not fall off the toilet. our tester said. We think this seat is best for larger potty users who aren't quite ready for the standard toilet seat. BabyBjorn Potty Chair. My son is massive for his age and he fits in it. A normal cheap one there'd be no chance. More expensive but you want them to be comfortable anyway!’ - recommended by Mumsnet user, rh6718 Our verdict

While the BabyBjörn Smart Potty earned our top spot, the Munchkin Arm & Hammer 3-in-1 Potty was close behind with its high performance in all testing categories. It not only functions as a potty chair, but also features a removable trainer seat to place on a full-size toilet. Plus, it doubles as a sturdy step stool to reach the big toilet seat or make washing hands easier. Despite not having anti-slip material on the bottom of the potty, we had zero issues with stability thanks to the potty chair’s wide base and easy-to-grip handle.If you’re looking for an option for beginners, the Beaba training potty is a great place to start. It passed with flying colors in the stability and ease-of-cleaning tests. We like that the potty sits flush with the ground and feels stable thanks to anti-slip material on the bottom. It's also lightweight, so you can move it around easily if you want to, but it stays in place otherwise. The ergonomic design of the potty provides a comfy spot for tiny behinds to sit down on, while rounded corners and edges make cleanup simple. The center of the potty is removable, so it's easy to clean without carrying the entire potty to the sink or toilet. We like that the removable bowl makes for easy cleaning, and the contoured design of the bowl prevents any dirt or other germs from hiding in unwanted places. Once you’ve washed it with soap and water, liquid simply pours out of the side spout for mess-free cleaning. Not only is this a versatile potty chair by its own design, but we also think it's versatile for both potty training beginners and advanced kiddos.
