Review Credibility: Excellent The Boon Potty Bench is a runner up in the Baby Center.com product awards. Editors praise the Boon for its sleek design and side compartments, which allow parents to stash books, toys or other treasures. However, they note the potty might be a better choice for girls because of a small splashguard.

Review Credibility: Very Good Michelle Horton names the Boon Potty Bench Babble's pick for best looking potty, and she says it has several other pros: storage compartments, a roomy seat and functionality as a sturdy stool. However, the potty requires some concentration from boys to contain messes, and the opening isn't as large as it is on most other potties, she says. There is more to clean with the seat, but the pullout drawer makes messes easy to dump, she adds.

Review Credibility: Very Good The Boon Potty Bench receives 4 out of 5 stars in more than 50 reviews on Amazon.com. Reviewers like the side compartments, and they say the potty is big enough to accommodate older kids. They also like the ability to use the potty as a bench or stool, and they say the wide base makes it hard to tip. However, some say the opening is too small and there are lots of nooks and crannies to clean. The splashguard doesn't contain boys' pee, others add, and one reviewer complains that the bottom lacks rubber to prevent skidding.
