Bula Baby Folding Step Stool for Kids - New Safe Locking System and Non Slip Feet Grip Light Weight Portable with Carry Handle Easy to Store 8.75" high - Blue

I was in the living room when my kiddo was brushing her teeth when I heard a crash. I was so terrified that she fell with the brush in her mouth. After a few hugs, she told me that her old stool slipped from under her. The sink was put a bit higher than it maybe should have been during a remodel, and my daughter often has to nearly climb to reach. After the old (cheap plastic) stool that I had fell over, I said, “Don’t worry, Daddy is going to get you a better one.” It was time. After doing some searching, I was between one with two steps and this Bula Baby stool. As noted by that whole “verified purchaser” thing you see above this review--I went with this one.I am glad I did. At about 9” tall, it stands a bit taller than our old one. My daughter can more easily reach now! I was concerned a bit that if it was taller that it might be more top-heavy and even more prone to falling over, but that is not the case. I even put the two of them side by side and tried to flip it with my foot. This Bula Baby stool most certainly won in that category--it just braces much better. I won’t say that this is unflippable, but the odds are much, much lower.What amazes me with this thing is how solid it is in spite of its light weight. When I pulled it out of the box I thought, “Oh great, what a cheap stool.” Then you open it up and realize that it is absolutely sturdy. I weigh about 180 pounds, and I was able to stand on it with no problem. I tried to put my weight on one foot on the old one and thought it was going to crack. If someone blindfolded me and put me on this one, I would have no idea that it is such a lightweight stool. It holds like a much heavier one. This claims to hold 220 pounds, and while I didn’t try to hold forty pounds of flour in my arms I can definitely believe it.On that note, being so light has its perks. It is easy for me to move around. It is easy for my five-year-old to move around. And when I want it out of the way, I can just fold it up. It folds completely flat, and I am able to shove it between the wall and my towel rack. I have a step-stool for household things that is much heavier and a pain to carry around. Since I have had this one, I have used it a few times just quickly grabbing it. I did not put it on a scale or anything, but I take the manufacturer’s word for it that this stool weighs less than three pounds.My daughter is able to fit on comfortably on the surface, and she has flippers for feet. It is sturdy, tall enough, and has a nice grips on both the bottom legs and on the top where she stands. Her old stool is going to Goodwill this weekend.At the current price point of less than $16, this stool is incredible. My old one cost me slightly more. Overall, I am very happy with this stool.

Can't wait for my little one to start using this. Very cool how easily it folds and unfolds, and when it's unfolded it feels very sturdy.My only complaint is that the white triangles on top are just little pieces of foam inset into the plastic. When I received it, one or two of the pieces were curling up a little bit. I'm sure after stepping on it a few times they'll settle in but I wish they seemed more permanent. I'm worried about them falling out!

Edit: after a month of use a small crack that wasn't too visible upon arrival (I just thought it was a visual flaw), became so apparent it render the stool useless :( Great concept. It was only used by my 35 lbs 2 yo.The white triangles on the top are a thin foam that fall off, and some of the plastic hinges arrived damaged. The structure wasn't compromised so I won't complain to much. Sturdy enough for an adult to stand on, opens easily, good height for bathroom sink and potty.

Nice little stool. wish it was a little higher and a better set up to keep it from collapsing as easy. My toddler has had it collapse a couple of times he has been on it. just be aware.

EXACTLY what I was looking for. perfect height for my child to use the toilet. it's also light enough for my 2-year old to push into place at either the toilet or sink (a tad too short for the sink but not a big issue). it's also quite sturdy; my son has leaned on various points to try and get on and it hasn't tipped. It has definitely helped the potty training process go very smoothly. As a bonus, it's right next to the tub for me to use as a seat when I bathe my son and I find it sturdy enough to hold my weight.

This is an adorable stool that works for more then just kids! Iended up buying two stools because I am 4'7"and can't reach a lot of stuff in my house so I need a lot of stools laying around. I like these in particular because they are low cost and they fold up easily and can be moved out of the way when not in used.Pros:Folds upHolds adults and sturdyLightweightCute desginCons:Wish there were more colors

I bought this for my 3 year old son. It is perfect, when we travel he can go potty without assistance, just like at home. I only give it 4 stars because it is a little unwieldy when it is collapsed. It almost doesn't fit under the stroller. Great product, work on making future versions more compact.

Exactly what i didnt need! I already own 2 step stools that are too short......make that 3 now.This is only 8 in tall. Not tall enough for any kid to reach the faucet.Previous reviewer that received this free for their honest review was wrong!!!!! It is not 14in tall!!!!
