Troubleshooting
Stool appears to slip on certain floor surfaces.
Ensure both the floor and the rubberised feet of the stool are clean and dry. For additional grip on very smooth surfaces, consider placing a thin, non-slip mat underneath.
Child seems hesitant to use the stool.
Encourage use by making it a fun part of their routine. Ensure they are supervised and offer positive reinforcement. The integrated Hippo design can also help make it more appealing.
Scuff marks on the stool.
Most light scuff marks can be removed with a damp cloth and a little mild soap. For tougher marks, a non-abrasive household cleaner may be carefully used.
