Product Information
Full details
The Futura Grey Folding Step Stool is an essential utility tool designed for homeowners, DIY enthusiasts, and travelers who need a stable, space-saving height boost for everyday tasks. Featuring a durable steel construction that supports up to 150kg, it excels at providing safe access to high cupboards, shelves, or work surfaces without the bulk of a traditional ladder. While its compact and portable design makes it perfect for kitchens, garages, and even caravans, users should note that it is strictly intended for single-step applications and does not offer the reach of multi-step ladders.
