Can this be used for 1 1/2 year old with a stool? or is it to big?

I agree with DOGLOVER. The seat is a little wider than some of the other seats, but my son was able to use it fine with a stepstool he just held himself up with his hands. It is not so wide that they will just fall right in unless they are really tiny.

Yes, you could use it with an 18-month-old, if you could get them on the potty somehow.

My daughter uses it and she is 2 1/2 on the short side. We use it with one of the IKEA small stools and she is fine. She goes all by herself now.

Yes, but they might use their hands to help them hold onto the side because this one is a tad wider than the others. However the others I've had the baby seat comes unsnapped and won't stay attached, this one works great!

I certainly would think so. The child seat is made for a child and they don't have to hold on with their hands while on the toilet like they would have to with a regular size seat.

I have had kids romping on these without incident. Of course with very small kids, one would expect parental supervision due to the height of the stool

The stool is pretty stable but I'm not sure how it would adjust to the needs of a small child.

Not at all! In everything, we've got to supervise our kids, but this Bumbo Step Stool is perfect for little ones needing to reach heights in certain areas of the house, but more when potty training, and to reach the face basin for washing of hands, which is why I bought it! My little grandson just love it. Moreso, that's exactly what is used at his school, so having it home, makes it even more comfy for him! Buy yours today, your little one will love it!

We bought this for out granddaughter for her 2nd birthday. I think it might be too tall or move too easy for a 1 year old. It is a great toy, tho.

Our daughter (now 14 months) is below the 5th % in weight and around 50th % in height (with a 95% head - go figure) and this vest worked well for her this summer (when she was much younger and smaller than she is now). I can say I would be confident using this vest on your 1 year old.

I don't really know. My daughter is six and she uses them. The only potential issue could be the size. They adjust, but I couldn't say if they would work for a 1 1/2 year old.

I would say no because it is rather large and there is nothing to keep a child that small in place. It is perfect for a toddler.

My little man is 8 months and still uses this. Not sure about length/weight, but based on our experience I suspect you could use it until they are 1 or a bit older, and by then you are probably ready to move to just using the regular tub and a safety seat.

Depending on the size of the child, I think this step stool might not be a good "chair". Not roomy enough. Hope this is helpful.

It is kinda big for that. I would use a smaller or fold up travel one for that purpose myself. We had the Sesame Street travel seat. Or read http://www.jamieglowacki.com/recommended-potty-chairs-and-stuff/. For some good travel pottys.

I did not use this from the beginning with my son's potty training. I do know he is 4 years old now, and he's still potty-training. He was getting too big for the seats in the stores. He does like this seat and will sit on it. I've been told you can use it for younger ages (1 1/2 or 2 year-olds), as well. I hope this helps!

Probably too small for twins. Good up thru 1 1/2 to 2 years, but very compact so I don't think it would meet your needs. Hope this helps...

I used it for my 2 year old who is on the bigger side and he fit fine. My biggest concern is there are no wheel locks, so he was able to scoot himself across the floor.

It has plastic feet which can be unscrewed. I guess if you were committed to it, you could rig it somehow with wheels, especially if you can find some that would screw in. This is a tall stool, and putting wheels on it might make it unsteady, lower stools tend to do better with wheels.

My son started using it under a year and he will be 2 next month and will still use it until he cant fit in it anymore. :-)

Yes I bought it for my 2 1/2 mo old and it worked fine. Although my daughter was 11 lbs at the time. Now shes 4 1/2 mo and 17lbs and still has plenty of room!
