About the solution

Getting her knees up while going to the bathroom made a huge difference and helped her a lot. However, using different stools, books and buckets as feet platform were not doing the trick so Bobby started working on the perfect toilet stool: the Squatty Potty. As he set out to create it for his mom, the process proved to be more challenging than he expected. They had to find the perfect height and position that would result in maximum relief for Judy.

This family decided to go further with this little trick and right now they guarantee that Squatty Potty is the perfect height, shape and design to work with any toilet!

Squatty Potty It wraps perfectly around your existing toilet and easily stores out of the way when you're not using it.
