I just bought the Dora folding potty seat today at Walmart. It doesn't cover the entire toilet seat. It starts at the front of the toilet, and doesn't go all the way to the back. The result is that there is no support in the back. My daughter is 3 yrs, 4 months, and this seat is much too weak for her. Any movement she makes causes the potty seat to sink in the back. I'm afraid that if we use it, it will soon break and she'll fall in. She definitely can't sit back, or even sit straight up because it sinks so much. I'm returning it and I'm going to look for something else.

i suppose this seat is better than layering tons of toilet paper on a toilet bowl. this folding seat may be appealing to little ones because it comes decorated with familiar characters (e.g., sesame street, dora, etc). but there is nothing to hold it in place on a toilet seat. my twins can't relax enough to 'go' while sitting on it because the hinges are flimsy so the seat feels like it's about to give way under them. they're small (27lb) 2yos, so i can't imagine what would happen if they weighed more. save your money and get a more stable travel potty seat!

Hey, it doesn't replace a real potty seat, folks. You still have to hold on to your kid while they are going--but at least you don't have to hold them up, it makes them feel more secure. And it folds up small enough in its own little plastic bag to fit in the diaper bag without contaminating everything in it.

This would pinch my daughters bottom so she hatted it. I think it is a great idea. I would keep it folded in a zip lock bag for traveling. Fits on almost every toilet.

I think this is a brilliant idea, but needs a little work. It is a bit flimsy, so I have to hold the back end of it so my daughters bum doesn't get folded up in the seat. But she loves it, and it saves on using public toilets that are way too big for 1 1/2 year old to use!

we got this as a hand-me-down from a friend and it still works well for my 2yr old daughter (35lbs). she feels perfectly safe when sitting on it and it's gotten multiple uses per day for 3 months now - she's almost to the point she doesn't need it anymore, so i don't expect to worry about how it will hold up. i don't think i'd use it again for my other daughter though, because i'm worried about it holding up for a third kid, but for $10, i'll just buy a new one.

The folding potty seat is great when on the go a lot. I have two older boys in baseball and I am trying to get my 2 yr old girl to use the potty. Having this folding seat, I am able to use any public toilet with no worries. Plus--she loves Dora.

I understand the complaints of other parents, however the fact that my three year old WILL GO and USE IT in a public restroom is all I really need to say. Also, it fits in my medium sized purse or diaper bag that I have for the 8 month old. It just folds right up. It has Dora. My daughter gets excited when she gets to use it. It would be better to have a full seat topper. It would be better to have her own potty, heck. But for around the town (we even brought this Disneyland) it is awesome. It is a compromise in comfort for the child, but makes up for it in convenience for the parent.

This has been extremely useful during travel. Fits well on toilet seats on planes. Otherwise we would have had to resort to diapers for amy 3 year old who is getting potty trained.

My friend had one of these and her daughter used it for public bathrooms. My daughter will not use it. We tried it at home and one time she got pinched by it.I have also tried it in public. Maybe she is too young for this seat. We us a Bjorn and a cushion seat and she does fine. She is almost 2.
