    No I have always just used a normal toilet seat and have never had a problem with any children using the toilet.

    I have had both the wooden one and plastic version, and the plastic one is less sturdy but far better inho. The smaller wooden seat sits on top of the normal size one whreas the plastic one goes over the top, thus stopping any problem with children who wee erm,frontwards" giving you an unexpected shower!!

    If you google "family toilet seat" lots of places sell them and you can usually get them for around the price you state. The one I currently have is a german brand and the whole seat unclips for washing if required so very hygenic.

    We have one on both our toilets. They were about £15 from lidl. I'd say they are worth it- if only for my own DS. Much easier than having to store one of those little padded training seats, and more hygienic too. Especially as it means children can sit on them normally, whereas with a big toilet seat they often hold on to the edge to stop themselves falling.

    What a brilliant idea! We need to replace our downstairs toilet seat and we always have mindees that need an inset seat; which usually kicks around the floor I think I may have to invest

    Ive got one and would recommend them as well - would definitely buy one again in the future - only dowside from an adult point of view is to remember which seat you are attempting to sit on if you have been drinking

    I have a wooden one from Argos and it is great.

    I have used a plastic one in the soft play and didnt like it because it felt a bit flimsy (some are better than others) and my wooden one is a normal wooden seat with the smaller seat attached.

    I bought one that cost about 30 quid, it keeps coming undone and now one of the supports has broken on it, not really impressed of the quality but it has been useful because the children could do it all themselves.

    i got a plastic one from kiddicare about 2 years ago and its still going strong!! wouldn't be without it i hate the toilet seats that you take on and leave on the floor when not in use this seems more hygenic imo.
    Blessed Be!

    I haven't got one but I do have a seat that fits onto the normal seat so it's a bit smaller, more secure for the little ones.
