It works fine. It holds my skinny 2 year old son's pants and thanks to the elastic band he can easily slide his pants onto the potty. It closes quickly and easily (important for a wobbly toddler) and the elastic seems to be of decent quality. My only complaint is that it's a bit wide for a toddler's pant loops. It often takes a while threading it through the loops (I highly recommend doing this before putting the pants on the baby). All in all, it's worth expanding your wardrobe.
