Squatty Potty 9 in Plastic Toilet Stool, White

I've been a user of the seven inch Squatty Potty for about 12 years. I recently had a new toilet installed, and though it too is standard height, I found that it is almost two inches taller from floor to seat than my old toilet. I tried out my old Squatty Potty for a few days, before deciding I need to upgrade my Squatty Potty to a nine inch model. I am very pleased with my nine inch stool so far, and look forward to using it for many years to come. If you've been using an up-side-down garbage can so far, or something else that just puts your feet in front, I would highly recommend getting either the nine, or seven inch Squatty Potty instead, it does make a difference. Also, judging from a number of one star reviews I came across, it seems like people are expecting a stool like this to provide some sort of magical laxative effect, which it simply will not do. It will however line your insides up properly for you to do what you need to do, which sitting does not. The ultimate of course is a squat toilet, or a over the toilet platform, but that's not always practical, or possible given bathroom size. Also, there are a number of other brands selling something similar. When I looked into those, most of them are seven inches in height, and either have too short foot pads, or foot pads that aren't spaced far enough apart. Besides, Squatty Potty was the first, or one of the early ones to come out with their product, and they've been selling it long enough to know what they're doing.
