Toilet trainers are offered in different designs, so there is something for every taste and size. They are useful to playfully teach your child to go to the toilet and leave the diaper.
With the help of our checklist and product recommendations, we make it easier for you to choose and show you what to look for in a good toilet trainer.
- Depending on the model of the toilet trainer, the age recommendation also differs.
- Simple potties or mini toilets can be used by children as young as 1.5 years, but are usually too small for children as young as 3 years.
- Attachments for the toilet such as children’s toilet seats with and without stairs, are suitable for larger children from 2.5 years.
- Note the age information of the manufacturer.
- Potties and mini toilets can also be used by toddlers on their own when they are independent enough.
- Their own potty is ready for use at any time, while toilet attachments must first be prepared (placed and attached).
- Potties and toilets with a removable collection container are particularly easy to empty.
- With attachments for the large toilet, children often need help sitting down, standing up and attaching the toilet seat.
- If your child is already bigger or you don’t have room for a separate potty, you can choose a family toilet seat just as well.
- Family toilet seats have a normal toilet seat as well as a smaller extra one for children. Adults and children can use the seat equally without having to change the seat.
- Just the stair toilet seats take up a lot of space, so they are only suitable for bathrooms and toilets that are large enough.
- Stair toilet trainer can be adjusted in height, but only in a certain range. Therefore, measure your toilet beforehand to make sure that the toilet trainer really fits from the height and does not wobble.
- The attachments also differ. Some are placed directly on the edge of the toilet, others on the toilet seat.
- Attachments that are placed on the rim of the toilet fit only on certain standard toilets and rarely on square toilets. Pay attention to the manufacturer’s specifications here!
- To give your child an incentive to go potty, these are often brightly colored or even feature a steering wheel.
- Mini toilets sometimes offer nice extras, such as soft seats, lighting, music, toilet roll holders and lids.
