Product Description
Sesame Street 1-2-3 Learn With Me Potty Chair The potty chair from Sesame Street speaks English and Spanish when the child gives Elmo a high five. The child will love the potty seat because it converts easily to a seat which will fit most adult toilets so they can feel like a big boy or girl. The deflector shield is a great feature for little boys. The potty chair includes a large bowl which prevents splashes and leaks. The Sesame Street Potty includes electronics with volume and power controls, requiring 3 AA batteries which are not included.

This potty does the job, and my son likes it, but it has the following shortcomings:
1 - The bottom of the receptacle is high enough that if a big poopy occurs, it touches your kids bottom, meaning more to wipe later on.
2- It's easy to take apart, but awkward to clean, and there are bits that get bent when re-assembling, that if bent once all further reassemblies become annoying.
3 - The electronics don't like water, so it's awkward to clean without ruining them. To make matters worse, if you have a boy that sometimes misses (even when sitting down), the miss tends to go right onto Elmo's hand, which is the button that you press to make Elmo talk, and is the thing that does not like moisture when you wash it.
So, if your kid is a Sesame Street fan, go ahead and get this, but otherwise I would look for something more practical.

I bought this ages ago and while my son liked it at first, it is a disaster now that we're trying to get him TRULY potty-trained (ie completely independent, pees on his own, dumps pee into big potty, reassembles potty, flushes, washes hands). It has a weird design where you have to take off the outer layer to remove the bowl part, and then to put the outer layer back on is like assembling a puzzle. It's hard even for me to take apart and put back together.The high five hand is, as another reviewer said, in a bad spot. My son bumps into it accidentally which makes the whole thing seem absurd. He's sitting there, not peeing or pooping but hoping to, and Elmo's shrieking "Way to go! CONGRATULATIONS!" And now the batteries are starting to wear out, which leads to bizarre middle-of-the-night episodes where Elmo suddenly starts talking on his own. Creepy.
I am trading it in for one of the simple models with a bowl you can easily lift out and empty, and no bells and whistles. What's the point of being able to turn into into a (very low) stool later, when by the time he's not using it as a potty any more you certainly will have needed to buy stools for every sink in the house anyway?

My son just pulls off the splash guard and wont stay on the chair. I hate the way the seat comes off and it doesn't slip back in well. My son just wants to take it apart all the time anyway and tries to sit on it without the seat. The high five thing doesn't really help and he just bumps it with is leg anyway. My son just likes the fact that it's elmo but he doesn't sit on it.

This product seemed great at first but has become very disappointing, the tabs attached to the seat part have bent after very little use and cannot be bent back into place making it a struggle to place and remove, you just hope you don't get splashed when trying to remove it. I am currently pregnant and it is very uncomfortable dealing with this, I need a potty that will allow me to easily lift the part I need to clean up. I am ready to buy a different one.

If you want to spend your time wrestling to pull a potty apart and again to put it together this is the potty for you. This definitely was NOT designed with ease in mind. It takes longer for me to put it back together than for my son to use it. Hate it. Need to buy one with and easy slide out bowl.
