unfinished wood step stool

Most listings either show no surface treatment or explicitly describe the product as unfinished, meaning they are sold without a finished coating.

Heights vary widely: small stools can be about 7.5 inches tall, while toddler towers and larger step stools range around 35–36 inches tall.

Weight capacity varies by design. For example, some toddler towers list about 125 pounds, some compact wooden stools list 200 pounds, and certain double towers list up to 175 pounds. Check each product listing for its specific rated capacity.

Many toddler towers list a suggested age of 18 months and up; smaller hardwood stools in the listings sometimes show a higher suggested age, such as 5 years and up.

Most stools list a single step or rung, while some toddler towers include two rungs/levels.

Assembly varies: some stools arrive fully assembled with no setup required, while others require adult assembly—sometimes with tools provided and sometimes without.
