NOTE FOR BOYS: you must get your son to carefully tuck his you know what under the rim of the seat after he sits down or you will have pee everywhere. Sounds like a pain but no big deal for us.

I bought this for my almost 3 year old daughter. Though I agree with the other reviewers that the seat is a bit small, it's a portable potty, meant for convenience and to not take up too much room.Love the fact it uses 1 gallon bags that you can buy anywhere. The seats clamps down on the bag, holding it in place. I love how it folds up, nice and compact and I can just keep it in the car.
The only thing I am not a huge fan of is the holders on the side. Though it's nice to have storage for the wipes/ziploc bags, I can't even get them open.
Overall though, very well-made, very useful product to have.

I originally bought this seat over 6yrs ago when we were planning to travel cross country. Before that we often pulled over to the side of the road with our young boys because frankly that was the only option. However,them having to go #2 was disasterous. Stumbled upon this in a specialty catalog and bought it. This is now on my top 10 list of things every parent needs to have.We travel by car a lot and having lived in areas where there are no restrooms to pull over and if there were I'd rather they go on the side of the road. We have used this so many times at this point. Most recently my 8yr old used it when were over 2hrs from the nearest town. We literally set it up in the back of the suv and the rest of us waited alongside the road and laughed! We store it under our back row suv seat for the last 6yrs.
1. takes gallon sized bags. Buy the inexpensive store brand, the ones WITHOUT the zipper work best. The seat snaps over it locking the baggie in. I carry a few feminine pads/old disp. diapers with me so when the baggie is filled with urine you can drop one in and it will absorb the liquid. So no baggie with sloshing urine in the back seat!! Or if there is a trashcan around people arnt looking at you because your carring a bag of urine, its a little more discreet.
2. Side storage holds the baggies and in the other side I have a small wet wipe container and feminine pads (see above)
3. cleans up very easily and is quite sturdy. Its a travel potty, so yes it is smaller and not as sturdy as your porceline one at home.
4. Can be carried without you inside to places and dosent scream "potty" because when its closed it looks like a smaller plastic case. I often carry it into places like a mall where we will be at for awhile. I go into a stall in the bathroom and set it up. Its WAY more sanitary and comfortable for my newest potty trainer.
Love this travel potty and would recommend it hands down. We travel a lot for hrs at a time and this has been a lifesaver.
Honest reviews on Cool Gear Travel Potty
We have this potty and we use it quite often. Our son and daughter are now 3 & 5 and we've had it for about 3 years. It's perfect to keep in the car, if you need to travel with it, it's not terribly obvious what it is. The convenience of having 1 gallon baggies that can be tossed in the trash or stored without smell in the car until we have a spot to throw them out is priceless. We bought a box of 1 gallon bags from the dollar store and it is cheap.VERY convenient to use in the back of the car or van. Clean and comfortable. The sides hold the bags and wipes as well.
Definitely the best portable potty we've ever seen. With baby #3 on the way, I see it getting a TON of use. Best investment ever.
