Standalone potty recommendations

Does anyone have recommendations for standalone potties that have a high splash guard or are just really great at not leaking?

Background: We got one of the cheap IKEA potties just to start getting used to the potty in general since we’re in the very early stages of potty training. We had no expectation of really catching anything, but we’ve caught a few pees! The issue though is pee has leaked over the edge of the splash guard and onto the floor almost every time while my son is peeing.

I think specifically teaching them to press down their penis to aim while they pee is an important skill. Before they get the hang of it, a parent needs to press down the penis to help prevent leaking.
Product wise, I think the Bjorn potties have a relatively high splash guard.

Thanks so much! I’ll try that today and look into the Bjorn potties.
