I was dreading training my twin boys. I didn't want to lock myself in my house for weeks on end attempting to get them to use the potty because they need to be trained before nursery school starts in September. Not wanting to push the idea of training I had my mom buy a peter potty for them for their birthday. We set it up, let them play with the "flusher" and just let it be in sight. I even move it outside when we're playing so it's available. One day, out of the blue they had swimmers on and my one son was like "I have to pee"..and he stood in front of the peter potty for 15 minutes and did nothing. (Then proceeded to pee in the swimmer) this went on for a few days (him standing and doing nothing) and then all of a sudden it clicked! That was 2 weeks ago and we have been diaper free since. I don't even use pullups when we go out! The Peter potty was the best $40 spent on their birthday! I LOVE IT and I highly recommend it for anyone thinking of trainng boys. Potty training 2 boys at the same time was SO EASY--I couldn' t be more excited about it. Read more
Bathroom is on the second floor and my son had trouble making up the stairs and to the bathroom in time. This was perfect for us to keep downstairs without having to worry about a mess. Read more
My son is potty training using this. Perfect size for him. He prefers this over sitting down. He finds it fun to "flush" the water down. I Would have given 5 stars but the top canister drains constantly without pressing the button so im constantly having to refill the canister. Read more
My son loves this product. He feels like a big boy using it. It makes training boys a lot easier. He uses it several times a day.. I think every little Boy should have one. He wears his underwear, no more pull ups. Whoever invented this , deserves a Golden Globe Award. Best potty ever!! Also Adjustable for free stand up or you can mount it against the wall. Awesome!!

Overall concept is great for potty training. But this urinal lacks structural balance. The water tank on top does not secure and a curious toddler is quick to remove it and spill all the water. The water delivery system lacks quality to sensure leaks. Unfortunately it was not a fit for our household and the defective unit we received was returned and refunded. Read more
My almost four-year-old son has autism and I have tried so many different products and methods to potty train him. He refused and screamed no matter what approach I used. Then I ordered the Peter potty and he took immeidate interest. It took him about a week of looking at it before he actually used it. He absolutely loves the peter potty. Now we are transitioning to the regular potty, but Im positive he would still be in diapers if it weren't for this urinal. The free standing base does adjust higher and lower, but not by much. I wish it would go higher, but my son was still able to use it even though he is extremely tall for his age (he hits closer to the top of the opening.) There is also a wall mount feature that could be used for more height control, but I didn't want to attach it to the wall. It is a nice option though. For my son, this is the only thing that worked. Now Im free of diapers and so happy! Read more
Tip of the day for moms with little boys: Buy a urinal! I prefer this Peter Potty one. My two year old has been using this since he was 1. He never misses and you don't have to hug toilets to clean later. No wall sprays! No mess anywhere! It stays clean with each flush if you add a simple water cleaner solution. I wish I had this with the other two. Plus it's so simple to teach them. Just stand them in front and tell them to go. It's like hitting a tree for them outdoors and he feels like the big boys. It depends on your kid if they flush all the water out. Mine flushes twice. It's his reward for going so I don't mine if he flushes it more than twice. It holds a lot of water and the green container is huge enough to support all the flushes and uses. I prefer the stand because we may move it from one bathroom to another depending if we are on onside of the house more. The height adjustment is perfect for when he grows. I love this especially the curved out feature so no stress on their aim. He never misses. Search FB for my video review as well. I'm buying these now as gifts. Read more
I purchased this urinal for my 3-year old who had begun potty training when he was about 2 and a half, but was still too short to stand at the toilet. The main reason I had bought this was because he could use the toilet, but we were still struggling to get him to take the initiative and I had read many reviewers saying that this urinal immediately captured the interest of their younger toddlers. Now, a couple of months later, my son has only used the urinal about 3 times, but is mainly in dry underwear all day. He still prefers to sit on the toilet for both pee and poo, since that was how he was originally taught. This is a good product for parents to buy when their son first takes an interest in potty training, so that they can be taught standing up. I also anticipate that as he gets older and more independent in using the bathroom, he should develop more of an interest in standing and this product would then be more useful. The height adjustment is more limited than what I had expected. Even though the urinal is set for his height and he is still not tall enough to stand at the toilet, it can probably only be raised another inch or two. It does not take up much space and is very easy to refill and empty. The few times that he has used it has been very convenient. Read more
