*The Squatty Potty helps you to eliminate faster and more complete by putting your body into a natural squatting position over your own toilet. Using the Squatty Potty during elimination will un-kink your rectum taking your body from a continent mode to an elimination mode. This will speed up the elimination process therefore reducing the risk of toxic build up of fecal matter left in your colon.
Sounds like a load of crap to me. 😉
Lol
Lol. Why not just use a plastic step stool. Much cheaper.
They aren’t as tall, still a little more effective than feet on the ground, lol.
hahahaha..
Ashley, you are hilarious! My husband wants to know what I’m laughing about in here.
I’m thinking that this would go great with your “I Pooped Today” t-shirt.
😉
Seriously????
Yes, seriously.
So excited about this! Saw it on TMZ & have wanted one ever since!!! I think it’s great for kids!
The Doctors even had it on one of their episodes.
My daughter suffered from chronic constipation for a couple years and her doctor did tell us to use a stool in front of the toilet to help her. If anyone has a similar problem, this really is doctor recommended.
I took a class in high school where the teacher had us research this phenomenon. I’ve always wondered about it but research shows it’s true.
My 6 year old seems to have it figured out because he actually puts his feet on the seat and squats that way to poop. Weirdest thing ever, but works for him.
My kiddo too! In fact, he didn’t potty train #2 until he came up with the idea on his own to stand on the seat and squat. Smart kiddos we have!
My 4 year does this too. It works for him so I never made him stop.
Dr Oz. was talking about this recently. Believe it or not it’s proven to work for people suffering from these type of problems. Not funny!
I’m sure it works but why not just use a cheap step stool. I’m sure it would work the same way.
Not necessarily because with this your feet can be more positioned to the side and create more of a “squating” position. Studies show that squating is much better for your health. It almost eliminates colon cancer.
I would love to see the medical research and findings on squatting and elimination of colon cancer.
The toilet is a modern invention for convinence- not to assist in elimination. Research before you hate, folks. We, as Americans, are so ignorant when it comes to anything not mainstream. It saddens me.
I don’t feel most Americans are ignorant. I am very open to natural health and so are 90% of the people I know. Guess it’s all on whom you surround yourself with.
Unfortunately, Americans are indeed ignorant to many things. I cannot tell you how many ridiculous questions I’ve heard being asked of people from other countries. Also, Americans don’t travel as much as we should. I know so many people who have never traveled outside of California. It’s sad.
Well, Sussie, you do have a very good point about travel! I think maybe “closed minded” is more appropriate to describe this though. 🙂
Travel is great in theory but in reality it’s relatively expensive for a want (not need) and requires using vacation time (10 days/year goes quickly if you want to be there for school activities, celebrate your child’s birthday, take a couple extra days off for Christmas, etc.). If you want to replace our pay for a few extra days off work this year I’ll happily reduce the number of badly travelled Americans by 3 this year 🙂
I’m not really sure why you have such hatred towards “ignorant” Americans. We’re only talking about a pooping stool here. I had never heard of this before and I am NOT ignorant. Collin jokes about pooping sometimes. I wasn’t sure if this was for real or not. It totally makes sense once I think about it, but I have never had any problems in this area and just didn’t know. If you come across people who are “ignorant”, maybe you could simply and politely educate them and move along. 🙂
Maybe Sussie assumes that ALL Californians have the means to travel outside of the state? I mean, you’re right…getting to Arizona and Nevada would REALLY open horizons.
It seems a lot of people here have never heard of or seen an eastern aka asian toilet either… hence their guffawing at this concept.
You are so rude. America isn’t like other countries – like countries in Europe – where is it cheap and easy to travel outside of your home country. Look at a map, Susie, and also look at airline tickets.
LOL! This is ridiculous. Try metamucil folks. “Ignorant Americans” is the silliest comment I’ve ever heard.
Metamucil doesn’t rid your body of cancer causing build up. Much of the rest of the world squats to properly evacuate the system.
Ignorant doesn’t have to be insulating. It’s when people choose to continue to be ignorant when they are informed they are missing knowledge on something and be offended by a word (they clearly don’t understand fully ;-)) that is the problem
You’re claiming squatting rids the body of cancer causing build up? This has been proven by whom?
This is to assist with elimination.
Learn to educate people, instead of calling them names. It’s win win situation.
I have the little looster seat for 4 year old to get up onto the toilet. I also have the convertible toddler/adult toilet seat. Made potty training a breeze!
I have this! Heard about it on a radio show several months ago. Life changing for anyone with constipation issues! Highly recommend! I thought it was some kind of joke when I first heard about it. For anyone thinking of ordering, watching the short video on Squatty Potty’s website, will help you get a better idea of the product!
Most toilets in 3rd world countries are Squatters, I love them wish we had them here. So much easier to go plus its cleaner cause you don’t have to touch anything (seat).
I was just thinking until the outhouse and then johnny toilet, this was the natural pose/way to go to the bathroom all of the time, so it would be a natural way to eliminate—except our toilets are not near the floor. Let’s just say I am relieved I do not have to use leaves though! 🙂
Yes, but they can be very uncomfortable for people with weak knees (especially the elderly) I grew up with those kinds of toilets and honestly I don’t miss them.
I have to laugh at myself, at first glance, I thought it included the toilet and all. Thought it was for camping or such. 🙂
Pick a spot outdoors and be closer to nature. Free. Plus you’ll provide nutrient for the earth and flies. You’ll breathe in great natural oxygen while you are pooping.
Okay, no lie, I laughed when I saw this on the front page of Hip. Within 5 minutes, I gained hubby approval and am looking forward to giving this a shot. Reviews are worth a read — whether you’re serious about this or not. 🙂
Wouldn’t putting your feet up on a step stool do the same thing?
Your feet need to be spread apart. Most stepstools are pretty narrow but maybe you could find one to work.
I was thinking the same thing when I got a great idea. I’m going to try bed risers. I used them in my old apt and have just had them in my outdoor storage for a while. This way I could have my feet spread apart as much as I need and not have to buy anything. Just reuse what I have. They will be kinda custom because I will use one for each foot
That IS a great idea, Sara, thanks for sharing it! I have to go find mine! 😉
haha, this idea is great! but makes me think of the “stirrups” when you go for a pap 😉
maybe my bf wont take 3 hour bathroom visits if i get him this? lol… or i could just take away his smart phone!
Step stool works just at good because I have one I bought at Rite aid a few years back on clearance (its a really nice heavy duty plastic one) for around $2 . I thought I discovered something on my own, but after reading this I guess I didn’t, haha. Well good to know it works for others too!!!!
Having spent time in the developing world there were mostly squat toilets. I’ve never been so regular in my life 🙂 I’m seriously thinking of getting this.
Just bought mine. Husband has wanted one for ages, at this price I can say yes to that 🙂 Will be great for him plus helping with potty training in a year or so, with the little one.
134 great reviews on Amazon, everybody can’t be lying. Just ordered mines!!!
Thank you so much, i never knew this existed. I am very hopeful that it will work as well as promised. I love hip to save.
Thank you for this post! I’ve wanted one of these for years but always forget to research it, and try to find a great price. I’ve hear from many co-workers (at an all natural grocery store) that these things are really great and work! It totally makes sense when you think about it.
I just received mine yesterday! I swear this is an awesome thing. I am a true believer. I actually ordered the “Step and go” first and it arrived broken, so sending that one back. The quality of the Squatty Potty which arrived yesterday is so much better and it works!
I think this could be good for a toddler learning to use the big potty.
The most natural way to give birth is also in the squatting position. The modern toilet is a man-made convenience. Before the invention of that contraption and its predecessors, people squatted!
I don’t think I could get my feet up that high on the step!
I have one and it works great.! I love my squatty potty. It really does help.
Wide stance?!! Maybe that’s what former Senator Larry Craig was REALLY doing in that airport bathroom…trying to recreate his very own “squatty potty”! LOL
I’d kind of like to try this for my boys, but I’ve got a feeling when they don’t have to go #2, they won’t move this out of the way and will pee all over it. I really don’t need to add one more thing to clean everyday in the bathroom. 🙁
Just put two cinder blocks on the floor – one on each side of the bowl. Done. Just be careful not to stub your toes in the dark…… 😉
I understand why everyone thinks this is a joke, but you shouldn’t laugh until you’ve tried it. And actually, if your size allows, putting your heels up on the front of the bowl works too, and will save the expense. My bf showed me this product after hearing Howard Stern recommend it. I convinced him to try putting his feet up to prove it works better. He finally believes me now.
I guess, if you like it…buy one. If you don’t like it…just pass on this purchase!! Each is entitled to his/her opinion AND purchase power. Problem solved!!
