HOCA Original Bathroom Toilet Stool, Medically Tested Squatting Step

I did a lot of research on the benefits of squatting to poop, having started incorporating the "Asian Squat," into my daily life, a number of years ago. I also did a lot of research on the various "Squatting Aids," available, some of which were very, very expensive. So, in the end, I went for the best known option, The Squatty Potty, which I purchased. However, when I tried it, it didn't "feel" like proper squatting and didn't seem to work Not only that, but the way I was forced to sit on the toilet was very uncomfortable, as the sharp, inner edge of the toilet seat dug quite painfully into my rear! I therefore sent it back and resolved to squat on the toilet rim, which I've been doing for years, in spite of the fact that many people (and I agree with them) warned/advised that it might, not only be precarious, but potentially dangerous to do! I decided to revisit the squatting aid option again, as I'm not getting any younger, but decided to avoid the Squatty Potty. I therefore happened upon the HOCA Toilet Stool, which seemed to come with a lot of recommendations and "medical" endorsements. So, took plunge and ordered one. The first few days of use, took some getting used to, placing the stool at the correct distance from the toilet. I haven't experienced anything close to the discomfort I felt with the Squatty Potty, although to be fair, it might be that I've had a new toilet/toilet seat fitted, in the past year and the inner edge of the toilet seat may not be as sharp as the previous toilet/toilet seat. Either way, the HOCA fits neatly under the toilet, until needed and I have to be honest, it appears to "work," and perform its function really well! 😉😉 That, and I feel much more secure and comfortable using it. Therefore, I can thoroughly recommend this product!

Great stool for using in the bathroom if you have different struggles with going. Simple and easy to clean. I have a small bathroom and this fits well under the toilet when not in use so it doesn't get in the way

This item has made using the bathroom so much easier. No straining or waiting for ages to go. Instant relief. Worth every penny. Great quality materials and price for this item.

The stool itself is really good. But why, oh why, do they put those hard to get off stickers on it. And not just one but 2.

Really good for assisting with poo due to constipation and piles

I'm 2 weeks post hysterectomy surgery and this item has been a great thing as makes going to the toilet painless and quick. I'll continue to use this as I can see the benefits of it. Fits snug so doesn't get in the way.

Excellent...perfect for adult use. Positions knees above hip line. Very study.

This is the 2nd one i have ordered (for a separate room). These stools are fantastic. Without, i could be waiting an hour to 'go', using the stool changes this to 5 minutes. Absolutely worth the money. Family members have bought their own after experiencing ours. Dont hesitate to buy! (All stool puns intended).

Come da descrizione

After an extensive online research, I decided to place an order for a potty stool. It does what's intended for. Recommended.

Der Toilettenhocker ist stabil und sauber verarbeitet. Er sorgt für eine angenehmere Sitzhaltung und erfüllt seinen Zweck zuverlässig. Ich bin mit der Qualität zufrieden und kann den Hocker empfehlen.

Såg "originalet" på Shark Tank många år sedan och denna uppfyller funktionen i sin ordning. Den är lika i bred och höjd som originalet fast 6/10 delar billigare. Den är gjord av hård plast och sitter utmärkt runt svenska toaletter och när den väl omringar toalettstolen så syns den knappt och du känner inte av den ifall du sitter som vanligt.

Lo coloco bajo el inodoro para elevar las piernas y la diferencia se nota: la postura es más natural y me resulta más fácil a la hora de plantar el chopo. Empecé a usarlo por mejorar la postura mientras envacuo. Al principio me resultó algo incómodo, pero en unos días me adapté. Compré el modelo de plástico blanco: no patina (ni en el suelo ni con los pies), se limpia fácil, es ligero y queda escondido bajo la taza. Además, me sirve como escalón para alcanzar baldas. Mido 1,73 cm y la altura me va bien; en casa con personas mucho más altas o más bajas la altura fija puede no ser la mejor. Pros Mejora la postura (rodillas elevadas) y reduce el esfuerzo En mi caso favorece un vaciado más completo Antideslizante, estable y fácil de limpiar Ligero y compacto: cabe bajo el retrete y queda oculto Multiusos: vale como escalón o para sentarse un momento Contras Periodo de adaptación los primeros días Altura no regulable: puede no encajar a todos por igual No es plegable; ocupa fijo (aunque se esconde bien bajo la taza) Para mí ha sido una compra acertada: cómodo, práctico y con beneficios claros en el baño. Si lo van a usar personas de estaturas muy distintas, miraría una opción ajustable.
