The squatty potty toilet stool came with a child’s toilet seat, appropriate for a toddler. There is a removable cap on the top of the stool that makes the stool higher, for younger kids. My son fell when he stood up, and the cap disengaged. He fell into the side of the bathtub. We assumed we hadn’t had it attached correctly. The next time he used it, we verified it was seated correctly. Again, upon standing, the cap came loose, and he fell to the floor. When I contacted the company, I was told that they are no longer selling them with the cap, as they rework the design. They indicated that they recommend that people either don’t use the cap, or use zip ties (it doesn’t seem clear that this would fix the problem). However, I just purchased these as new products, one from Bed Bath and Beyond, and one from Amazon, within the last few weeks. I received no warning that these could be dangerous. The company did not seem properly concerned about this product, its availability, and its associated risks. This was especially concerning, when I saw they had a previous, very similar product recalled in 2017.

Product name is Munchkin sturdy potty seat. Child injured his penis as he was getting off toilet. The device sits on toilet seat. The rim of the device caught the boys penis causing severe injury. This seat should not be used and is dangerous. Parents should be advised on dangers.

My four year old son was sitting on a Bemis NextStep round toilet seat purchased from Home Depot. He was leaning forward, and fell off of the toilet seat. As a result, he ended up with a significant cut at the base of his penis that required a visit to the emergency room. Initially they thought he would require stitches, but they were able to use surgical glue instead. I believe my son's injury was caused by the skin being pulled as it was caught between the front edge of the seat and his body as he fell. (A similar complaint about this seat from someone else on here blamed a sharp edge, but I think my son's injury was from the skin being caught and pulled, rather than cut on an edge) The incident date here is estimated, but I can get the exact date if necessary.

My son was playing with this potty seat and put it on his head. The seat was able to slip over his head and got stuck around his neck. We had a very hard time getting the seat off of his neck and were about to head to the hospital to cut it off when we finally did manage to pull it off.

Sat potty on toilet, placed child on potty chair, child attempted to get off potty chair and friction between potty chair and penis caused penis to become partially severed resulting in an emergency room trip to reconnect severed portion of penis.

My son (2 years 8 months) was sitting on the Primo PRI 4-In-1 Soft Seat Toilet Trainer and Step Stool White with Pastel Blue Seat. He raised himself off of the seat, lifted the seat slightly and inserted his finger between the seat and the seat reducer. He sat down on the seat and lacerated the end of his pinky finger.

Purchased OxGord Toilet Potty Step trainer for kids on Nov 25, 2016 from Amazon. However, started using it for the past 8 months. On 29th July while using the product, it broke and my daughter fell from down and got hurt Thankfully, no major injuries (Scratches on the shoulder and arm on the side she fell) and she was scared, sobbing and was in shock. Note: It was used under parent supervision. I have trashed the product. But, have pictures of the broken item. Kindly look into the issue as its concerned with Safety of kids

We JUST bought my daughter a TOMY The First Years Disney Princess Magical Sounds potty system this morning. The toilet has a training seat that rests on top of the toilet base. Unfortunately, this training seat is VERY easy for a toddler to remove, which I didn't realize was a problem until, within a matter of seconds, my daughter removed it and sat into the base. All of a sudden she was screaming profusely. I immediately picked her up to see blood on my arm...her bottom was so severely cut she bled onto my arm while I was holding her. She had three large cuts on her butt cheeks and several smaller ones on her back. Obviously, sharp plastic on the inside of a toilet base that has a toilet seat that is easily removable (doesn’t at all lock in place) is a HUGE hazard for a toddler. My daughter is only 13 mos and removed the seat quickly and sat into the base. I felt so guilty when I googled the product to find many other parents complaining about similar cuts from the inside of the base...some kids got cuts just from sticking their fingers in it. To think I just thought I was buying a little toilet for my daughter to begin potty training on...now we’ll be lucky if she ever sits on a toilet again! I feel so terrible that she is in so much pain from that. I would’ve never thought sitting into the base would’ve done anything to her!!
