Can you use a toilet seat. Like one of the toddler ones than stop them falling down? Means no cleaning as can just flush as usual

I've tried this and she is not happy about it. She's only 18 months though maybe later on. At the moment she quite loves the potty.

I've just bought one in mothercare. DD chose it. It is chair shaped, and under a tenner.

Hmm, it is not under a tenner I think DH hid this from me as he wanted dd to have her preferred potty.

We got one from eBay - it is a good size overall and the actual bowl bit has a good diameter (so a bad position is less likely to cause a mess on the potty/floor). Not been knocked over yet - I think the style of it would make that quite hard to do.

It plays a little ditty when it gets wee'd in, so at least you have some warning that it needs to be dealt with.

Can't link at the moment but a search for 'musical taxi potty' should bring it up on ebay?

Switched to laptop - it is this one.

I'm using it with DS who is 3.3yrs - so I guess would be a little bigger than your DD and it really is a great size.
