Fortnite-Themed Toilet Chair Makes a Comeback on Facebook Marketplace – Priced at $500 in 'Used' Condition

A fan-created toilet chair inspired by Fortnite, known as the "Battle Bucket," has resurfaced on Facebook Marketplace after becoming a viral sensation on TikTok. Currently, it is listed for $500 and is described as being in "used" condition. The Battle Bucket first gained attention from a TikTok user, @usecodelitty200iq, in a now-deleted video from 2023, where he showcased the homemade device that allowed him to play Fortnite for extended periods without taking bathroom breaks. This contraption is essentially a flip chair with a hole cut into the seat, positioned over an orange Home Depot bucket. A piece of curved piping directs waste into the bucket beneath. Additionally, a G Fuel sticker adorns the back of the chair, adding to its quirky design. In the original TikTok, @usecodelitty200iq referred to his creation as the "Fortnite Battle Bucket," humorously explaining the two holes it features—one for urination and another for defecation, while gesturing to the pipe and seat hole. Although the initial video has been taken down, many reuploads of it still circulate online. Recently, a Twitter account claimed to have spotted the Battle Bucket listed for sale on Facebook Marketplace, complete with a high-resolution photo that wasn't part of the original TikTok, indicating that the seller possesses the actual item. The listing states, "I've had this for a few years and used it almost daily. Has been thoroughly cleaned and works beautifully." It also emphasizes that the seller is looking for "real offers only! No lowballs; I know what I got." As a functional bathroom alternative, the price of $500 seems questionable, and its historical internet significance may not justify such a cost either. Despite claims of thorough cleaning, potential buyers might still have concerns about hygiene before using it. The internet has responded with humor to this Facebook Marketplace listing, with various brands joining in on the fun. The official G Fuel account commented, "Powered by yours truly. It's been an honor to serve you 🫡." Meanwhile, UK esports event organizer Epic.LAN remarked, "Adding this to the list of banned items at LAN." Additionally, an artist shared an oil painting inspired by the Battle Bucket, capturing its TikTok fame in a different medium.
