Product Information
Full details
The HomeVibe Folding Step Stool is an ideal tool for homeowners, office workers, and DIY enthusiasts who need a reliable, space-saving solution for reaching high shelves or completing overhead tasks. Its primary benefit is the combination of a 150kg weight capacity with an ultra-compact folding mechanism, making it both heavy-duty and easy to store. The primary caveat is its fixed 25cm height, which may be insufficient for users requiring access to very tall ceilings or extreme heights.

Can this be used outdoors?
Yes, it is suitable for garden use, provided it is placed on a flat, stable, and solid surface.
How high does it stand?
The platform stands at a height of 25cm.

Troubleshooting

Ensure the platform is fully pressed down and no debris is stuck in the hinge mechanism.

Verify that all four feet are making contact with a flat, level surface and check for any uneven floor conditions.
Stiff folding mechanism
Clean the hinge area of dust or grit and ensure the frame is not bent or obstructed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the stool is straightforward: simply pull the sides apart until the locking mechanism clicks into place on the platform. Before stepping on it, always ensure the unit is placed on a flat, even surface to prevent tipping. To fold the unit, gently pull the center handle or release the locking mechanism to collapse the legs inward.
For care, wipe the stool with a damp cloth and mild soap to maintain the integrity of the non-slip surface. Avoid using abrasive chemicals that could degrade the plastic or metal frame. Always inspect the hinges periodically to ensure they are free of debris and move smoothly.
