Even better than expected
"A Well-Designed, High-Quality Product That Performs as Intended"This step stool has been an absolute game-changer for our family! It’s incredibly sturdy, thoughtfully designed, and perfect for fostering independence in little ones. Safety is a priority, and when following the simple instructions for installation it is incredibly stable. My child loves being able to access the sink and countertop on their own, and putting the stool away is easy, even fun! For anyone concerned about the installation the self-anchoring makes it so easy and reliable—its anchoring method ensures it won’t tip over or slide like freestanding stools. Refer to the images of the posting and measure your cabinet space beforehand, to make certain it fits perfectly. This will not work if the base of your cabinets or vanity are higher from the floor than normal. Most cabinets are 5.5”-6.5” from the floor. If that’s what you have, you won’t be disappointed. The quality of the bamboo is excellent, and I appreciate its durability and aesthetic appeal—it blends seamlessly with our decor. I also appreciate how the pivot mechanism saves space when not in use. To those who may be concerned about losing cabinet storage: this stool transforms your cabinet into something functional for your kids—it’s not just another bulky item lying around. It’s well worth the price for the independence and safety it provides.We love this product and recommend it to any family looking for a sturdy, reliable, and space-saving solution for kids! We’re already planning to buy another one dedicated to the kitchen!

Great idea with room for improvement
This hideaway stool has been great at reducing the clutter in our small bathroom. I like that it's tall enough for my 3-year-old to use the sink all by himself without constantly being in the way for my wife and me. The instructions were easy to follow and took less than 15 minutes.As others have mentioned, the edges of the wood are a little sharp and should have been sanded down by the manufacturer. It's quick to fix and wouldn't cause serious injury, but still something that should be standard for a kids product.The feet on this product are made out of the same bamboo wood, and my toddler was able to shatter one of them after just a couple of uses. I'm grateful it was the wood that broke and not my tile floors! These should really be made out of rubber to minimize slippage, damage and noise. I'm going to try to replace them with rubber myself.Overall it's a good product in theory and we'll keep it since we haven't found anything better, but it would be a GREAT product if they fixed some of these simple issues.Update: I reached out to the manufacturer and the owner, Mark, responded right away and offered a partial credit to replace the broken footings with rubber ones from my local hardware store. Great customer service.

Perfect for My Little One’s Independence – Sturdy and Space-Saving!
The media could not be loaded. I am so impressed with this foldable step stool! It’s the perfect size for my 2-year-old son. The design is compact and lightweight, making it easy to move around and store when not in use. My son can now easily reach the sink and wash his hands all by himself, which has been a big help in encouraging his independence. The stool is also very sturdy, and I feel confident that it’s safe for him to use. The folding feature is a huge plus because it doesn’t take up much space when we’re not using it. Overall, I highly recommend this step stool for anyone with young children. It’s practical, well-made, and a great addition to our bathroom!

Independence for Kiddos!
This step stool is genius!! It took minutes to install, the instructions were printed right on the box and easy to follow, and it’s very sturdy! I love that it folds up and out of sight when not in use, especially since my bathroom is quite small. Best of all, it gives my little guy the ability to wash his hands all by himself!

Great idea but overpriced
This product is a great idea, and does work well. But it’s really overpriced. For $100 I would have expected more. The drill holes weren’t aligned, it’s made of pretty cheap materials, and was annoying to put together. Doesn’t seem too durable. My kid does really like it, and was excited that she can now reach the sink.

Exceptional
Totally impressed with the Hidden Helper stowable stool; its design and clear instructions made assembly a breeze, allowing us to set it up in no time. The quality materials ensures durability, while the sturdy standing platform provides reliable support. Its clever stowaway feature makes it an ideal fit for our bathroom cabinet, maximizing our space!!

Brilliant! We love ours.
Easy to install. Only gripe is I wish the top step was wider even for little feet it’s quite narrow but not a deal breaker. Would order again for other bathrooms, so far we only have 1 in our powder room and it’s the best/so practical.
