Can someone give me a good recommendation for a potty chair? I have a little girl (in case there are any with special accessories like toilet paper holders, haha!). Thanks!
he wasn't quite ready so we shelved the idea for about a year- Then at 2 1/2 we tried again we bought a ring for the toilet so he could have a something for the toilet, but we also used the frog potty for the living room this is what we bought
and it is awesome - it is all foam - there are no seams- no pee getting in crevices. We just wipe it and go (it also comes in a pink color).
As far as potty seats with bells and whistles, I personally would stay away from those- you want the potty seat to be as similar to the real thing as possible. And I have had friends that have ones that make sounds and songs when the kid goes and it scares the crap (LOL) out of the kid.
We have the pink potette which I got because of its versatility. It can be a normal potty with a silicone body, you can switch the silicone out for these little bags with a bit of padding at the bottom for when your out and about like in a car or camping. Then you can also flip the legs out to make handles so it can go on a big potty. That come in lots of colors, ours is pink and purple.
We also have the boon potty bench with side storage. There are two side compartments for books and what not and one side has a toilet paper holder in it. The top also flips down to become a stool. I liked that the seat is actually square because my DD seems to find it a bit more comfortable to sit on.
Lastly we will probably get at least one more potty ring and it will probably have Minnie or just some character she likes on it. Or we will the kind that is attached to the normal seat so she can flip it down herself, she won't need me to put it on the potty for her every time.
We spend a lot of time downstairs but she also has her own bathroom upstairs so down the road we won't want to be toteing potties and potty rings up and down the stairs. And the potette will probably be for on the go since it folds up fairly flat.
We have the a pink princess one and the one that looks like a real toilet. She likes them both but we turned the music off because she gets up before she is done when it plays.

We bought the pink Summer potty as well because it was cheap, had the separate ring and was easy to clean. DD goes to daycare where they potty train on a "big girl potty" so the Summer one is just another stool now.
We mostly use the plain old potty rings (yes pee gets in between the seat and plastic part, but I think this is a boy issue more than a girl issue). For a stand alone potty chair I like the Bjorn ones. They are simple and only two pieces. My son would play with the other more complicated one and pieces of potty would be all over the place. Plus, cleaning up a bijallion pieces of potty is not my idea of a good way to spend my time.

We have the Bjorn one and the Prince Lionheart weePod Basix. My DD actually picked out the Bjorn one at Target so since it was her idea it wasn't a struggle with getting her to sit on it. If you live near an Ikea their potty chairs are actually almost identical to the Bjorn ones, but for a third of the price.

Re: Please recommend potty chair (girl)
When LO was 18 months old - we started with this one (you can get it with a pink seat vs orange if you want) and I thought he was ready

But then we realized that pee gets between the foam seat and plastic base and gets gross and smells so then we bought this one
