Best Safety 1st Potty Chairs / Toilet Seats

Don't Waste Your Money! – I really hate this potty. The cushy seat is just a giant pee and water sponge. With a girl I'm sure it wouldn't be so bad, but with a boy that sprays… Read more

forwards when they pee it saturates the bottom of the seat and it just soaks it all up into the foam. You can't get it clean and it stinks after a very very short amount of time (within a week of use). Also, when you go to clean it it just soaks up all the soap and water and tends to foam if you squeeze it and then their little bum gets wet the next time they use it because it's full of water and pee. The spray guard I have found works fine for boys once they get the hang of pointing themselves down when they sit on it, but the blue coating on the seat comes off after a while and you end up picking it off them if they happen to lean against it. The foam also splits and breaks after a short amount of time (especially with trying to get it clean) and it also started to go mouldy within a very short amount of time because it's impossible to get all the water out of it. It's is impractical and not very durable at all.

The rest of the potty is easy to clean and easy to store, but the cushy seat makes it a piece of rubbish after a very short amount of time. We've had to buy a whole new potty just because it stinks so much now and I'm sure it's not very hygienic either. I don't recommend it, at all. If the cushy seat has a better coating on it so that it didn't absorb all the water and pee it would be a much better product.

I also wrote to Safety 1st to make a complaint and get my money back and was basically told that they "would look into it" and fobbed me off by sending me some dusty products that were probably sitting on a shelf somewhere for several years. I wasn't impressed at all with their product or their customer service.
