Would this work for an eight-year-old (50 pounds)?

I'm not sure. The diameter of the potty opening isn't very huge (or close to a regular toilet seat) but it would work weight wise I think. It's very sturdy.

Yes, I believe an 8 yr. old would be able to install it and it's light enough to lift and put into place.

Yes, it will work fine....our son is 22 lbs. and it works great! Plus it can transition to be used as just a booster once he's old enough.

I have a small 8 yr old girl and it is good. She wanted to do tricks. And I knew her dad would be showing her so I tried to find something that would stand up to him and be small enough for her. If he is active, I would say yes.

Yes it can hold an 8 year old. It does shake even though i bought the base extensions. I bought them after my hubby put it together. It really wobbled. I would get a bar that you can adjust. Big regret. My 7 yr old daughter who is level 4 doesn't use it very much because it moves & it doesn't adjust. She doesn't feel secure. I have a friend who has one that adjusts and her hubby has it attached to some strong plywood so it doesnt move. Her daughter uses it all the time. Only the adjustable would work for older kids. Hope this information helps.

Yes, I think it's probably too small for an 8 year old. I have a 3 and 4 years old grandchildren and they are just about too big for it. Hope this helps...

I use it for my two year actually and she is about 30lbs and 36" tall and it works amazing. It's adjustable and should fit your child for a while.

I think it probably would be. I bought it for my five year old and she is on the average to tall side.

No, this would be way too short for a child eight years old. My granddaughter is a short two year old and it's just right for her.

I would think so. The weight limit says it will hold up to 50lbs. Ive put my child in itaitagain recently and she's 2 years old and 28lbs right now.

I would have to say "yes". My dog is 50 pounds and the item isn't even on it's highest setting. It is adjustable.

My daughter is 53 pounds. This is perfect for her. Anything more than 70, I don't think it would work well. Some older and larger kids have tried it but it was too small and didn't give them the same spring as for a smaller kid.

My son is not quite 40 lbs. it works perfectly for him, but I'm not sure about a 100 lb child. Sorry I can't be more help.

It would definitely work for him! My oldest is over 60lbs and it works well for him. (In fact..I can jump on it at 115lbs without a problem!) It's fun...even for me!

I think it would be too small. An eight month old would probably be able to sit up over the top of the bars, and might be able to tip it over (it's kind of top heavy). My daughter only used it until month 4.

I'd say "Yes". I bought one for a 13-yo girl and it's perfect for her. So if you have a strong 10-yo boy, should be ideal provided they're tall enough.

I don't know, you should contact the manufacture, but I would assume that it would work anywhere from 50 lbs and up
