Review on Compact and Convenient: B&R Plastics 101-6BG Beige EZ Foldz Step Stool by Jessie Wright

** Original review posted 10 December 2014 Updated 3/1/15. Had to teach my (almost) 4 year old granddaughter how to lightly smack the side, fold it over and put hands right inside the handles to lift, open/move. There are many ways you can get your fingers caught if you are not very careful. Definitely not something I would recommend if a child is using it unsupervised. Weight limit 300 lbs. My husband is about 240 and agrees he feels very stable. No problem that it doesn't last. Small and takes up little space when folded. We keep it next to the toilet in our guest bathroom for the granddaughter to have quick access to if needed. Good height for a potty trained child. Not too big which is a problem next to the toilet lol. Not too small for a 4 year old to reach his hands under the running water at our sink. (She is 36 inches tall). Beige color almost khaki. Works and looks as described. Actually bought to put in my granddaughter's backpack (which I carry haha) when we potty her in public lol. Like most kids her age, she wants to do everything herself! To smile. So she could reach the toilet/wash her hands and I didn't pick her up. Such beautiful proud moments are the result of their independence lol! Well, on our next visit, she was big enough to get almost everything on her own. They grow fast! Buy while they are young haha. She still loves that she can use it when bathing and cleaning at her grandparents' house. And I like how light and compact it is. (You can put it in an adult backpack when you need it for travel etc.) Looks very durable. We are sure that it will serve us for many years. Step to get to all the tall cabinets/shelves I usually need access to. We have a higher stool but I don't need it yet as we bought this one. Very convenient. Highly recommended. * 1.3.15, still holding up well. Hope that helps!
