Reviews

It looks sturdy, and my kid loves it!

"I told my child that Grandma had bought it as a gift, and she started calling out "Grandma!" every time they climb up. My 19-month-old mastered climbing up the learning tower in just a single day, but she still struggle to climb *down* on her own. From what I can see, it definitely looks like the climbing-down part is going to require some practice."

Great product!

"Much heavier than I expected but that adds to stability. Our 21 month petite granddaughter had no trouble climbing on and off She has a Guidecraft tower at home so this is familiar to her! So much safer than a chair and she loves being at our kitchen island! Easily folds to store"

Betsy G. (5/5)

Samantha P. (5/5)

Very sturdy and easy to use

"I bought this for my grandson for his 2 year birthday to help with tasks of brushing his teeth and washing his hands. It opens and closes like a dream and will be helpful in the future with kitchen tasks. It is very sturdy and easy to operate. It came quickly and was ipackage nicely. Guidecraft makes quality products!"

Christine A. (5/5)

Obsessed!!

"I was nervous that the step stool style wouldn't feel as sturdy or safe as the other models, but that couldn't be further from the truth! This model is so sturdy!! My little guy can safely climb in and out. It folds up with ONE HAND so that I can get it out of the way for our robot vacuum. I highly recommend!"

Macee S. (5/5)

Great toddler tower !!

"This is the perfect option for us! Very sturdy and attractive but folds up to easily store in a hall closet. We do not have a good kitchen configuration to leave this out at all times. Highest height is great for my 20 month old toddler. Only four stars because there is something about the bar mechanism that makes them challenging to collapse. I would still buy it again and this probably lends to sturdiness and safety but I have a hard time fully collapsing. My spouse who is taller and has larger/stronger hands has less trouble but even they have to fight with it a little."

Sarah S. (4/5)

"I like that it’s sturdy! Its big for using in a bathroom."

Hannah (5/5)

Well designed with security in mind!

"Stable product and simple to fold and store. Really well designed and our grandson loves standing on it and helping out in the kitchen. My wife also uses it as a helpful step stool for those hard to reach items."
