we originally buy this potty chair because of the padded seat , think it would be great for we toddler . we be so wrong about it ! my toddler enjoy sit on it , that be not the problem ... the problem be , after 4 day of use this chair , it have develop a horrible urine smell ! the foam-type seat absorb the urine that spray , and alot of it will collect right under the seat so you have to clean it real well ! I like the concept of the seat , but the foam padding really suck and we waste money on this seat and will be get a new one .
