Baby Products Reviews of Baby Bjorn Potty Chair
Customer Review: Great for boys too!
Summary: 5 Stars
Before buying this potty I read a review that it was not designed for boys in mind, and that the deflector is hurting boys...well we had to buy a potty anyway, and after my first purchase almost a year ago, when I got Safety First potty, I really took time looking both in the shops and online. The problem with the Safety first potty is that they should have called it Hurting first potty, because the deflector there is just horrible- thin, with sharp edges and literally looks like it is designed to deprive boys of their private parts. Besides that, it just can not stay in place- I tried sticking it with tape, and the hole was way too small- my baby could fit either the back or the front side, but not both. So keeping the fingers crossed, I decided to try now Baby Bjorn potty- we had a carrier before, and it was perfect , and when the potty arrived I knew I made a right choice- it is very ergonomically designed, and my boy absolutely loved it and sat there from the first time without hurting himself on deflector- plus it is much harder to hurt yourself on this kind of deflector that "hurting first" one. And since that he sat there many many times, and never even touched it- and he goes into it also without any mess, as some of the reviews say.
It is very comfortable and the hole is oval shaped and large enough, and it has space for him to grow- and I 've got a big boy, 27 pounds and 90% on his height...
Customer Review: Finally an Easy-to-Clean Potty
Summary: 5 Stars
Our first potty for our daughter had one of those squishy foam-type seats. We thought that would be more comfortable, but soon realized it just irritated her bum. It had a huge reservoir, was a pain to dump and clean, and that foam part was always getting dirty and could never be completely cleaned.
A friend had a Baby Bjorn, and seemed happy with it, so we gave it a try. My daughter chose her own color - I love that there are so many options - and we ended up with a green one. She loves this potty. It seems comfortable, and she doesn't get that red ring around her bottom from sitting on it. And best of all, it's SO EASY TO CLEAN. The reservoir is compact and can be rinsed in a small bathroom sink, but holds plenty. If you forget to dump it once, it won't overflow on the second use.
My first daughter still prefers this potty over using the adult one. She's 3.5, and big for her age. The size of this potty is very versatile, and I think it will last her a good while longer if she needs it to.
Now my second daughter is getting to the potty-training age (18 months), and we've invested in a second one in her favorite color, yellow (it's actually a lovely shade). The same potty that can accomodate my preschooler works just as well for my little toddler, and that's a great feature.
I have zero complaints about the Bjorn potty. It's absolutely worth the extra money.
Customer Review: Good but not Great
Summary: 4 Stars
After reading several reviews I purchased this potty chair. Here are the positives and negatices and why I think is good but not great.
Positives:
1- REALLY EASY TO CLEAN. This chair is just two pieces both solid plastic. Super easy to wipe down or rinse out with bleach.
2- DOESN'T COLLECT ODORS. Because it is solid plastic and no soft foam, it does not collect odors.
3- SOLID WON'T TIP. The design is great. It doesn't tip over when child gets in or out. It grips the floor well and is hard to shove around
4- SUPER PORTABLE, LOW PROFILE. It's a small, but not the smallest potty out there... they make a smaller one piece potty and it is super portable because of that. It also does not take up much room in the bathroom.
Negatives
1- BUILT IN SPLASH GUARD. Because the splash guard is built in, it can be hard for little ones to get on and off. My infant son started potty training at a year and even though he was a walker he could not get his leg over the splash guard to sit down - which discouraged him from sitting.
2- BUILT IN SPLASH GUARD AGAIN. The spash guard can hurt a little guys parts when they stand up. My son bumped himself several times which discourages him from using it. Now that he is a bit older (17mo) this is less of an issue but be aware of this for the young ones.
Customer Review: Love love love it!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I just got this potty yesterday, and I already know that it is everything that I expected! I have a three year old son and for weeks he has been using a Safety First potty that I am now going to happily throw in the garbage because that is exactly what it is and where it belongs. It is such a poor design that every time he went pee it would leak all over the place. I had to take it all apart and wash it in the bathtub after every use. Not to mention all the pee that ended up on the floor. UGHHH! I finally used duct tape to seal all the seams between the parts which worked marginally, but I was going through tape like it grew on trees. After one days use of the Baby Bjorn potty I have none of these issues. My son does his duty and there is no mess to clean up other than the waste that properly ends up in the potty! Now I can spend my time praising him for a job well done rather than bending over the bathtub cleaning up the mess. The joy of potty training is back! The potty is very easy to clean and just lifts right out of the base. It looks nice and fits well in the bathroom. My son loved all the color choices and picked his favorite color - pink! I would definately recommend this potty seat to anyone who was having the same issues I had. Thank you Baby Bjorn for being in tuned with end users' real needs!!Customer Review: Best chair I could find but still leaves room for improvement
Summary: 3 Stars
I purchased three of these chairs so that I could have one on each floor of the house. It was the best chair I could find on the market and had some of the best reveiws I saw. It is overall a decent potty chair. I have two young boys. One successfully potty trained on this chair and one is still in the process. While my overall view is positive and I would buy it again, here are my areas of concern:
-My kids didn't want to sit and go potty. They wanted to stand like daddy and big brother. On occasions where they have missed the bowl and hit the back of the chair, the liquid leaks underneath the bowl and goes right to the floor/towel/mat whatever happens to be underneath at the time.
-While this chair only has two pieces, there are many ledges that urine can get to that can create colonies of bacteria. I just wanted to mention this because I have to clean the entire chair every single time just to make sure nothing was missed.
- The bowl could be a bit deeper for #2. Enough said.
This is otherwise a great seat and I would buy it again.
