This invention allows the user to achieve the squatting position and is an improvement to the art because a user no longer needs to access another device to achieve the squatting position which has been shown to be the most efficient position for humans throughout time. In addition, this model needs absolutely no electric or battery power to have the pedestals released.

Claims

I: base model in the series which employs the new and unique aspect of a design which has inherent in its design the unique feature of equipping a toilet with pedestals built directly into the base of the stool and is designed to have a lever which automatically releases the pedestals for the user when they desire to defecate.

II: allows the user to achieve the squatting position and is an improvement to the art because a user no longer needs to access another device to achieve the squatting position which has been shown to be the most efficient position for humans throughout time.
