Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

We started putting our child on the toilet (at home) when she was ten months old, and she first went after about two weeks! Yay! Once she was regularly going 2-3 times per day at about 11 1/2 months (trust me, she's still in diapers), I ordered this item to use when traveling. NOTE: For home use, I absolutely recommend "Bemis SLOW NextStep SLOW Closing Potty Seat)! Anyway, this blue cover folds up very compactly and now 13 month old is used to seeing it when I take it out of the diaper bag. A toilet's hole looks like a giant chasm without this cover in place! So even if you don't plan on placing your child on a toilet until they're 2+, know that it provides security for a very small, 17% percentile tiny tush. Even once a child is totally potty trained, I think continuing to have this on hand until they're four or so is a small parental gesture of love. lol (Would YOU want to sit on a giant toilet??) Some of the character's face is already coming off, but whatever. Using a separate, bulky kiddie toilet just doesn't make sense, and even the free-standing ones still require space to be set up, which is never a guarantee when traveling. I recommend keeping this product in a bag of some sort, with a couple sanitizing wipes for times you have to use a less-than-sparkling toilet seat. (I use Wet Ones Antibacterial Hand and Face Wipes Singles.) Finally, I chose the color blue because a gender-neutral item is easier to resell in the end. Also, girls shouldn't always have to be associated with pink! NOTE: The six attached pictures are to show toilet seat size compared to very-common baby food product, and how I store ours before putting it in our diaper bag. Hope this helps! Happy toilet time! UPDATE: My child will be 3 years old in 3 months and is still not potty trained. I apologize for my self-righteous words..! No one informed me about regressions and defiance in toddlers..! LOL But I still like the seat. Lol
