Choosing the right step stool

A good step stool makes everyday tasks safer and easier. Looking for a foldable step stool you can store flat, or a sturdy step stool that's always ready to go? Here's how to choose by height, material and use.

Foldable or fixed?

A foldable step stool is ideal when space is tight: fold it flat in seconds and slide it behind a door or into a cupboard. Take a look at our foldable bamboo step stool or the foldable steel step stool, adjustable to three heights. Prefer a fixed model? Go for the black bamboo step stool.

What height do I need?

For a small boost at the counter, 17–22 cm is often enough; for higher kitchen cupboards or the top shelf, choose 27–33 cm. Unsure? A set of two step stools in different heights covers most situations.

Step stool for the kitchen or for kids

Looking for a step stool for the kitchen? Look for a wide, non-slip surface and low weight so it's easy to move. For the kids' room or bathroom, our two-step stool for children is a safe choice, with two steps and rounded edges.

Frequently asked questions about step stools

Is a foldable step stool sturdy enough?
Yes. Our foldable step stools have a stable folding mechanism, non-slip feet and comfortably support an adult – combining sturdiness with space-saving storage.

Which material should I choose?
Plastic is light and easy to clean, steel is extra sturdy and often height-adjustable, and bamboo is durable and stylish on display. Choose based on use and interior.

Can a step stool handle moisture in the bathroom?
Our plastic and steel models are moisture-resistant. Bamboo is treated, but wipe it dry after use in a wet room for a long life.

Is a step stool safe for children?
Choose a model with a wide, non-slip surface and, for young children, a two-step version with extra grip. Always supervise children while they use it.
