The Lillipad is a huge success at our place!
I wanted to provide some feedback for you because your service and product deserve some real praise.
Great packaging and instructions. With the glue and oil included, the construction was a breeze and I took great pride in putting it together because I could sense the care and effort that went into this product and its delivery.
Using the Lillipad is easier than I thought it would be. I find having my heals part way on the toilet bowl works best. The most notable part of the experience is how really good I feel after using it. I feel really empty and lighter!
All in all, ten out of ten. Thank you very much, I wish you a million more sales, and I will be spreading the word.

I had been bleeding with every single BM for six months. The first time I squatted, no blood, and no blood since then. It is amazing. This is how they use the toilet in developing countries, and it is how our bodies are made to defecate. It is so much easier on our bodies to do it this way. At first, I just stood on the toilet seat and squatted, but that's a little difficult. I decided to invest in a Lillipad squatting platform, which is expensive but worth every penny.

Just wanted to say thank you for the Lillipad - I'm extremely impressed with it so far — it's a great design. It's definitely going to take me a while to get to full squat flexibility back after 25+ years but it will definitely be worth it.
I'm already experiencing significant benefits from the use of the lillipad.
Thanks again! Phill, (New Zealand)
It is an extremely elegant device and prepared for reconstruction to perfection. If other systems were in use, the Lillipad presents some initial challenges in usage.
I am better off with your appliance. The Lillipad is leading to position of a ski jumper on the slide phase. There is benefit coming from the fact that the heel is touching the bowl = extra perceptual feedback to the brain. Obviously with this system an individual with limited dorsiflexion in the ankle can put their heel on the bowl. After full adaptation = relaxed muscles, rearranges lower back muscles, and places left thigh on sigmoid making the act easier and natural. Mind, the wide squatting position is advised against weight lifting, but beneficial for opening bowels.
It is my feeling squatting of this kind helps in rehabilitation of knee conditions...at times (it has helped my knees after bilateral arthroscopic surgery).

Just wanted to let you know we received our Lillipad on Thursday last week. We absolutely love it!! Thank you so much! Just one question, what is the oil you use in the finish? I really like that smell! I have no problem giving an endorsement for the Lillipad. Its easy when I don't have to stretch the truth. I really love that it is made with more natural materials, and is easy to setup and extremely comfortable to use. Not to mention the great price. Thanks again for an excellent product.

Got the platform right after Christmas. Put it together a week later. It was easy (my 5 year-old daughter helped). Though it took me a few tries to really trust the stability of the Lillipad, because of the lightweight construction, I am now happily squatting and enjoying the already obvious benefits - along with my wife and two kids, who are now former skeptics.

Just a note to let you know we received our lillipad on Saturday. David my husband has put it together and we both think it is great!! Thank you it is a work of art.

My Lillipad arrived safe and sound at the end of last week and was expertly put together by my Dad. Just wanted to let you know that it is great and I am so happy with the money I spent to buy it. Easy enough for me to get used to as I was already squatting on the toilet seats ... and the Lillipad is so much more comfortable and the position more natural.
Thanks very much for the excellent service. Not sure how many other people in my life will be interested in getting themselves a Lillipad, but I will certainly recommend it should the conversation turn to such things ... which is actually not too uncommon for me. Jo, (NZ)
Good morning my friend. Mate, been using the Lillypad for couple weeks now, and all i can say is....EUREKA !!!
Robert thank you. I now understand the immense benefit of the squat position, and the part it plays in my overall health. You have truly helped me,... and will be telling family and friends about this convenient solution... no doubt they will be asking me what that stylish wooden sculpture like item is in the bathroom.
Upon assembly, its easy to appreciate the craftsmanship of a person with skill and purpose, it looks great my friend, incredibly light, I wasn't sure initially whether i had received the entire delivery when i saw the thin box it all neatly arrived in, but there it all is, your right, it is incredibly strong... and easy to assemble !! appreciated the instructions, they were a great guide... masterfully designed my friend, well done.
thankyou Robert, i really appreciate it.

Just wanted to let you know, I received the lillipad a couple of weeks ago. Just wanted to tell you that it works perfectly. The instructions to put it together were very easy to follow and it fits perfectly around our toilet. It is very comfortable to use. I might need to purchase another one for our other toilet.
Thank you! Natalie, (Texas)
Received and all assembled..... kids say they think its crazy but have spied them using it!
Thanks again Alexis, (Australia)
The lillipad is up and running. I assembled the minute it arrived I love the look of it and get a real buzz out of new well designed things It is very well made and STABLE. Thank you so much I will show it off and generate ongoing work for your excellent tradespeople. Sally, (Australia)
After much research, your product seems the absolute solution, not only physiologically, but also aesthetically pleasing and not cumbersome for the home. I have hemorrhoid surgery pending and am researching and making other lifestyle changes at this time. I will need a platform "asap", but don't want to order one of the other bulky, "ugly" ones if I don't have to.

We bought one of your Lillipads.........really one word for it: perfect. It's the greatest. We also have two Nature's Platforms, but I much prefer yours.

When I went into John's bathroom, what I saw blew my mind. A house I had built in Colorado in the '70 by accident had a built in capability such as the one you provide with the lillipad. Since them I have been trying to figure out how to make one that would work in with "regular" toilet. I just love what you have created. I am only sorry that we did not get a chance to meet. I had intended to buy at least one of these from you to bring home with me.

The Lillipad is awesome! We love it so much already :)
I've already had a lot of clients wanting more info from me about when and how to order their Lillipads.

I just wanted to let you know that we got the Lillipad without any
problems, and that wow, it is a beautiful piece of work! It's just really
well designed and made (nice wood!). I appreciate its stability too,
especially as it doubles as a stool for our 2 year old. It's more stable
than the stool I had before for her to climb onto the toilet. She now
enjoys climbing onto her mini-toilet seat she can close down herself, and
puts her feet on the Lillipad for fun. One day she made a library out of
it, bringing her "little stool" (the normal one she used to use) in front
of it, and a handful of books. She sat on the Lillipad step and read some
books on the other stool. There's a new use for it!
As for us, we're adapting to frog life over the toilet ;) I believe that
squatting is the proper way for the body to eliminate, so it's nice to
have the Lillipad. I do have to hang onto something myself, as I'm in my
37th week of pregnancy, and easy prey to be toppled over.
So thanks for your Lillipad! Wonderful product!

Good morning New Zealand,
I discovered your lillipad in a wonderful place, while on holidays, in Oamaru : the Old Bones !! and I was enchanted !!
Zinovia, (Belgium)
Just got my Lillipad today and am de-Lighted. Thanks so much! It really beats the very heavy stool that i had in front of my toilet for about 20 years or so. My friends who aren't into keeping their knees up when using the toilet, will also be happy,"cause now they don't have to try to figure out how to get my heavy stool out of the way. So you have brightened the day of many.

Hi, I stumbled onto your site after 1/2 hour googleing toilet/step/stair/squat, and who knows how many other combinations of those words, and I was really excited. I have ordered a lillipad, and paid via paypal, which is extremely convenient. I'm wondering if you have brochures that you could include in my parcel, I know my colon hydrotherapist will be delighted to see your product, and may refer other clients to you. I am so looking forward to throwing out the plastic buckets that I'm using now to psuedo-squat with! I'm not sure how you go about making a site easier to google onto, but I'm really glad I didn't give up! Thank you
Libby, (Australia)
My husband gave me (well it was sort of a house warming present for us) a Lillipad last year. It's great and I want to buy one for a friend here in Australia.
