FAQ
- Q: Will this fade if I leave it in my garden permanently?
- A: The UV-stabilized HDPE is formulated to resist fading for 5+ years of continuous outdoor exposure. For absolute maximum lifespan, we recommend storing indoors during winter. The color may develop a slight patina over many years, similar to outdoor HDPE furniture.
- Q: Can I really sit on it comfortably?
- A: The 38 x 38 cm platform provides a generous seating area. It is rated for seating up to 250 lb with rounded edges for comfort. For extended sitting (30+ minutes), we recommend adding a cushion (any standard 38 cm chair cushion fits).
- Q: Is it stable enough to hold a large potted plant?
- A: Yes. The wide 38 cm base and low center of gravity make it highly stable. It has been tested with a 60 cm diameter ceramic planter weighing 45 kg — stable on both hard floors and grass.
- Q: What is the difference between this and your other step stools?
- A: The utility stool is designed for multi-purpose versatility with a focus on aesthetics (indoor/outdoor colors) and a wider platform. Our dedicated step stools are more specialized for specific use cases like kitchen, bathroom, or industrial settings.
