Pirate Potty Delivers Adventures in Parenting...You've been warned mattey! Argh!
This is a frustrating review to write because I want to like this. It's cute and fun, and looks to be incredibly multi-functional since it can be a step stool, big potty seat adapter, or a little potty. However, as many have pointed out, it's too small. You might think the cute factor and multi use factor can make you overlook this issue, but you would be wrong if you're potty training a boy. The urine stream "catch" is too low so it acts as a rest area for his pee shooter the second he sits down. If you can't convince your two-year old to tuck himself down, you're going to get a pee stream across the floor....and have to begrudgingly tell him "good job" for doing essentially one of the most obnoxious things many grown men still haven't mastered (the last thing we need to do in this world is train more boys to miss a toilet). This is especially true if he lounges back. On the other hand, if he sits further back on the seat and leans forward, the urine issue is fine, but in the event that evacuation method #2 ensues, he's going to press a floppy ploppy onto the seat that spreads out like pancake batter smooshed between his tush and the seat. Once this happens, you'll frantically be looking for a baby wipe to clean him up while he's shouting that he "did it," playing with the flush knob, and dripping mini turds from his tush onto the floor that he then steps in and tracks around during his victory dance. It was like a Dexter scene with poop. This is not hypothetical. It was real, and it was awful. But ya, it looks super-cute in the picture!
