Baby Products Reviews of BABYBJÖRN Potty Chair, Blue
Customer Review: Fantastic potty chair
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this potty chair to replace a potty I bought last year. I chose this one because of the reputation of Baby Bjorn products and I feel that this chair has made good on that reputation. This potty seat is simple, just the base and removable pot which is a feature I was looking for since we move the potty seat from room to room. The splashguard is part of the removable pot so it cannot be removed or misplaced, another feature I was pleased with since the splashguard on the other potty has gone MIA. This potty chair is sturdy and does not have a flimsy base like the previous potty seat I bought. It also has a rubber strip along the bottom so it stays in place.
I have read reviews of other people's toddlers not being able to fit or boys hurting their sensitive parts but we have not experienced this. My son is cautious when he sits on the seat and I am there of course to supervise and help. As for not being able to fit, I had my 7 and 10 year olds sit on the seat and my slim 7 year old fit with room to spare and my average sized 10 year old was able to slide right in but it didn't stick to her hips when she stood up, so my average sized 2 1/2 year old fits on it just fine.
Customer Review: Not for taller boys
Summary: 3 Stars
My son was excited about going potty and we got this just before Christmas. He went three days without going potty in his pull-ups but he never like to sit on this potty. He would sit, stand, throw a fit, start peeing, and I would sit him back on it. One problem is that when he sat the splash guard was in the way which I'm sure was very uncomfortable. It wasn't really high enough to work properly so either way he would end up peeing on the floor. Another issue is that the seat was really too short for him. He was 37" tall when we got the potty seat (he was only 20 months). Oh, and one more FYI...when the white part is out there is just a big hole. Once when I was dumping the pee into the toilet he sat down to go #2 and once again...it was on the floor. (Which makes me wonder again if the splash guard was the problem because he would sit on it when the white part was out).
This item has lots of great reviews which is why I purchased it so I still thin kit is a good product but you might want to think again if you have a taller child. I think he needs to use a ring that goes on the toilet or a urinal.
Customer Review: The BEST for boys
Summary: 5 Stars
We were given this potty by a neighbor, and my son has had some great early success on it. It's comfy, and the fact that the splash guard is a unibody construction with the removable pot is a godsend, in terms of how easy it is for my son to get on and off the chair. Within days of his first success, he was able to use this potty with no help and carry the pot in to me in the next room to show off his latest success! However, we didn't find out how truly great it was until we tried to buy a second potty for upstairs use. We've purchased two others. One had a splash guard so low and poorly designed that my son's "privates" landed squarely on top of it every time he sat down. Another had a high splash guard, but it was soft and movable and flopped down underneath my son every time he sat down. He's become very upset each time we try a new terrible potty and I feel awful for putting him through it. No more. We're buying a 2nd Baby Bjorn right now and I'd highly recommend that anyone about to embark on the potty training journey with a boy do the same. Simply the most well-designed potty chair out there.Customer Review: Nothing special for girls, unless you like a big red circle on your baby's bum
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought this based on the overwhelmingly positive reviews. I was pretty disappointed over all. My daughter is tall for her age but not particularly chunky or chubby. In any case, every time she stood up from this potty chair she also brought a red mark from the circular opening on her bum. I thought it was a little narrow for her. Sometimes when she stood up, the white part actually came up with her. I personally did not think this was a great potty chair. I think this might be because I have a girl and not a boy, since there seems to be issue with other potty's splash guards. In my case, my daughter did not find this seat comfortable and did not take to it at all. I later bought her that Fisher Price one with the face and that sings. It's a little lower, but wider and the seat cannot come up with her. She loves the songs, though it's lower and it is actually wider, so even though she is tall, no problems. Again, don't have a boy so can't speak to the splash guard issue, but really this potty is nothing out of this world for me. It's collecting dust in my hallway closet right now.Customer Review: Simple, Easy to Clean Win/Win
Summary: 5 Stars
Everything I read said to keep the potty as basic as possible.
You can't get more basic than this potty and the winning factor for me is that it is so easy to clean.
There aren't any cracks or crevices you need to worry about.
I bought it long before I knew my child was ready to use it and placed it in the bathroom as someplace she can hang out while Mommy was in the potty. If your child was like mine, she wanted to follow you everywhere, even the bathroom.
She started sitting on her potty to emulate me.
After a bit, she asked to take her pants off and that's how we started potty learning.
Since the basin is one wrap around tub, I just life it off to clean and put it back. No need to snap things or worry about cleaning crevices.
I also like that it is the right size. The back helped stabilize her when she was really small and now as an older toddler, it still fits her just fine.
