I had my doubts but someone I know who works for a butt doctor suggested I get one. I had cancer twice and after two years of chemo and a stem cell transplant, my BMs seem to be a little complicated. This Squatty Potty does the trick. I am still kind of young (41yo) so having to bend my knees into a squatting position is not yet a problem. Actually it feels good to assume the position and loosen my knees up a little.
The amount of time I need to perform a BM is about half of what it used to be. Everything practically falls out. And being prone to blood clots as well I don't like to sit on the toilet any longer than I have to. So in that regard this thing is aces as well. I don't have them but for someone with hemorrhoids this stool would probably help too. I do not strain to BM. That is a thing of the past.
The only thing I don't like is that it made me not like to BM away from home without it. Every time I use the toilet at work or at someone else's house I think "I really wish I had my Squatty Potty".
It may not help everyone. It may be hard to use if you have knee problems. But it was a good investment for me.
Get the bamboo one if you care about aesthetics. It is very stylish in my bathroom lol

Join the Bowel Movement
Let’s face it, in a world of ergonomic technology the toilet needed an upgrade. We think Squatty Potty is the solution. Join us!
How Our Bodies Were Designed to “Go”
There is a better way to poop! Human bodies perform more efficiently if we squat when we poop, which will unkink your colon. Our toilet stools support your legs at the proper angle, which creates a squat (legs at the proper angle: 35°) while you sit comfortably on the toilet seat.
Simply sit, lift your feet onto the stool then go poop. Your colon will be open, allowing you to eliminate completely.
- Reposition your body from 90° to 35° to naturally loosen your puborectalis muscle
- Reduce time spent on the toilet
- Easily eliminate the strain
- Weight limit: 150 lb
- Dimensions: 9.75"D × 22.13"W × 7.25"H

Helps to provide the absolute best BMs—but make sure to pair this with a bidet!
Here's some science for you:Researchers at Ohio State took 52 medical residents (and their partners) and tracked details about ~1000 bowel movements over the course of two weeks. They found that "90% of people who used a Squatty Potty strained less, and 71% had faster bowel movements" (Source: Jamie Ducharme's article for TIME — "Scientists Say This Popular Bathroom Accessory Really Does Help You Poop Better").People might laugh and joke about the Squatty Potty, but it legitimately makes a difference. I'm not a doctor, but I genuinely think every toilet should have a Squatty Potty, because BMs are noticeably easier with it.THE KEY HIGHLIGHTS:• You’ll strain less, and you’ll feel like you’ve evacuated your bowels more thoroughly.• In my experience, it helps to provide a quicker and easier BM. Really.• I purchased this about 4 years ago, and I haven’t stopped using it. It’s well-built and very sturdy.• This wood version looks a little more upscale than other options—and it’s much more subtle.• This version is very compact, and very lightweight. It easily tucks under your toilet when not in use.MINOR ISSUES:• After 4 years of use, the wood has started to crack lightly. Not a major issue, but I’d recommend regular cleaning with dry wipes and using wet cleaning methods more infrequently.• I wish the footrests were a little bit bigger.• The big logo looks slightly tacky. I wish it wasn’t so prominent. NOTE: my version is older. It appears that they changed the design and removed the logo. Nice!ONE OTHER THING:There might be other variants that you like more. Squatty Potty now has collapsible versions, a version with two heights, and a clear (“Ghost”) version with the same slim shape as this one. You should consider those options, as you might like them more.PROTIP:Combine this with a bidet. That's arguably even more life changing. Your booty will thank you, as will your partner. However, BE WARNED: you will never want to use a bathroom away from home ever again. I'm serious... I now hate using a bathroom that isn't mine.The bottom line? Treat your toot chute to better BMs. Buy this stool, buy a bidet, and don’t look back. It’s seriously life-changing.
