First aid Made Jan 8, 2018, sent to the company Mar 27, 2018, published by CPSC Apr 10, 2018
The product, in the report: The SquattyPottymus children’s toilet step stool is used to assist a child in reaching a toilet seat. The plastic step stools measure about 15.8 by 16.8 by 10 inches and were sold individually or as a part of a set, which included a toilet seat and decorative stickers. The step stool is designed to look like a gray hippopotamus with blue or purple eyes. It has a height-adjusting aqua blue hat top step and cut-outs that function as handles on each side.
My three-year-old daughter was using the SquattyPottymus children’s toilet step stool which is used to assist a child in reaching the toilet.
She stood up from using the toilet and was on the blue “cap” part of the SquattyPottymus when it slipped off the top and she fell onto the tile floor of the bathroom.
She hit her head hard on the tile (no blood), and was left with multiple large bruises on her left arm, backside, and leg.
This incident really scared her from using the toilet for a long time and we feel like the Squatty Potty company did not do enough to let consumers know there was a recall.
