Squatty Potty earns emphatic reviews as an effective, ergonomically designed stool that eases elimination, improves posture, and becomes indispensable for many users, including those with IBS or constipation. Reviews also flag drawbacks: the plastic look can be unattractive, it can be bulky or noisy and easy to stub into, fit and form vary by model, and results aren’t universal.

  • it's up there with the iPhone and the printing press as far as history's greatest inventions

  • Squatty Potty is a game-changer when it comes to bathroom routines! I was skeptical at first, but after using it, I can’t imagine going back. The stool helps you achieve a more natural squatting position, which makes "going" so much easier and more comfortable. It’s simple yet incredibly effective—no more straining, and it’s great for overall digestive health. The design is discreet and fits perfectly around the toilet, so it doesn’t take up too much space. Plus, knowing that it’s helped over 8 million people says a lot about its effectiveness. If you’re looking for a simple way to improve your bathroom experience, Squatty Potty is definitely worth the try!

  • There’s a reason why over 8 million of these have been sold. If you ever get constipated or need a little assistance, the Squatty Potty makes pottying a faster experience. There isn’t much else to say besides that.

  • I have the standard/original, and the foldable one. I like the foldable one, but it doesn't tuck under as nicely. Form factor aside, I hateeee having the "urge" when I'm not home with my squatty potty. It's just a better experience. Worth the investment. I promise you won't know how you lived without it.

  • Been a user for 5+ years and honestly miss it every single time I go on vacation. I have the OG design but love how there are new options now. Highly highly recommend. As someone who used to have doctors prescribe all the creams to treat, I am so glad that is behind me. This OG Squatty Potty has held up with use all these years.

  • If you're questing whether you should buy a Squatty Potty, the answer is YES. I put it off for years and finally decided to purchase the plastic folding version. I love that I can store it away easily when I have guests over. With the variety of styles and materials, it's easy to find one that goes with your bathroom's ~aesthetic~. It truly does help when going #2.

  • as someone who fights the toilet on a daily basis, this thing changed my life. easy to clean and easy to put away, i don't know what con there is to this.

  • I don’t have much to say other than Squatty Potty has changed my life. I can’t go to the bathroom without something under my feet, ever. Thank you Squatty Potty!! (I just wish it was made of another sustainable material)

  • I guess it does what it says it does. I mean having my legs up and such... Hard to know if it really does what it says and surely adds a level of ugly to our potty spot... Needless, 4 stars for function, 1 for form...

  • Oh, Squatty Potty, you're the unsung hero of bathroom accessories. With one in every bathroom, I feel like I'm living in a kingdom where everyone's bowels reign supreme. It's a sight to behold, watching guests cautiously approach the commode topped with this throne of enlightenment. The way it elevates your legs to the perfect position for a smooth, effortless release is truly a game-changer. You'll feel like royalty, conquering the porcelain throne with grace and ease. But beware, my friends, for once you experience the joy of a Squatty Potty, you'll never want to go back to a world without it. Say goodbye to traditional bathroom trips. You'll find yourself longing for that heavenly footrest, even in public restrooms.

  • Ordered squatty potty and bidet attachment. Potty would not fit on my toilet so there goes the bidet also. Was really excited to use it, but gave it away as a Christmas gift. Also was supposed to get the free poop unicorn but it never showed. I don’t understand why these companies say they’re gonna give away free products and they never do.

  • I’d heard so many amazing things about these before finally buying one, but my husband and I didn’t notice any difference at all. We ended up getting rid of it as it ended up being just one more thing in the bathroom to clean.

  • Pros: Dual uses. The stackable version is nice to adjust to your height, but using one piece of it alone makes a good stepstool for kids to reach the toilet. It's lasted for years. Cons: It's just white plastic. However, they have a new bamboo flip model that I would like to try.

  • Hey there, fellow bathroom enthusiasts! 🚽 Let's talk about the Squatty Potty for a hot minute. 🔥 If you're on the fence, wondering if it's worth the hype, I'm here to say: YES, it absolutely is! You know those moments when you're in the bathroom, and it feels like your body's doing an Olympic gymnastics routine just to get things moving? 🤸‍♂️ Yeah, those days are over, my friends.

No more struggling, no more discomfort. Just pure bathroom bliss. 🙌 So, if you want to upgrade your bathroom experience and put a smile on your face (and your... well, you know 😄), give the Squatty Potty a whirl. It's a small step for your feet, but a giant leap for your bathroom adventures. 🌌 Happy squatting!

  • Have had my squatty potty for years. Sturdy and reliable.

  • My husband came home telling me about this because they has one at his work. We tried it at home and it does make a difference.

  • Okay so, my boyfriend got this for me for Valentine’s Day and although it may sound silly, it was hands down the greatest gift of my life! I have IBS and this has been a huge life saver for me! I can’t go anywhere without my squatty potty!
