Here it is common to put the kids to Töpchen once they can sit. Instead, we bought the "Toilet Duck" from Fisher Price, because it is versatile (can be used as a footstool, potty or toilet trainer with the glasses on the big toilet). Beautiful she looks and indeed is very solid. For older children, I think it would very easily before because Ducky has a wide glasses and through the lid can also fullscall diagram times. For the very young it is, however, too high and the hole too large! Nevertheless 5 stars because most small toilet-goers are already somewhat older.
