Little Partners 3-in-1 Growing Step Stool Review

April 23, 2015 By Deb Chitwood 109 Comments

Little Partners 3-in-1 Growing Step Stool

Disclosure: I received a Little Partners 3-in-1 Growing Step Stool to facilitate my review. I was not required to write a positive review. My opinions are honest and my own.

My granddaughter and I have been in love with the Little Partners Learning Tower I reviewed in November, so I was very happy to be asked to do a review of the new Little Partners 3-in-1 Growing Step Stool. I really appreciated the sturdy and safe construction of the original Learning Tower. Because it’s designed to hold up to 500 pounds, though, it is large and not super easy to move around. It’s perfect for activities where a child stands at the counter to help with a project like baking or works at his or her own activity close to an adult (very useful during those “sticky” toddler stages where the toddler likes to be near someone at all times).

The new 3-in-1 step stool has the same safe, sturdy construction but is also easily movable.

About the 3-in-1 Growing Step Stool by Little Partners

  • The 3-in-1 Growing Step Stool is a super-safe stool manufactured by Little Partners.
  • It’s made from durable birch wood with poplar core LVL Construction. (Like the Learning Tower, it has a very nice finish and feel. The beauty of it fits well with the Montessori philosophy of having the child’s environment as attractive as possible.)
  • There’s a 3-position adjustable height.
  • The tongue in groove assembly gives the step stool lots of strength and stability.
  • It supports both children and adults up to 250 lbs.
  • It works perfectly in the kitchen, bathroom, or nursery.
  • The 3-in-1 Growing Step Stool  is available in white, grey, or espresso.

You can follow Little Partners via Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter, YouTube, and Instagram. You can even get optional giveaway entries for following Little Partners (and Living Montessori Now) through various social media formats!

Affiliate: The 3-in-1 step stool is also available in a variety of colors through Amazon.

My Experience with the 3-in-1 Growing Step Stool

The 3-in-1 Growing Step Stool was easily assembled. It was also easily moved to where I wanted it. I decided to store mine in the bathroom right off my kitchen. That way, Zoey can use it in the bathroom, and my husband and I can use it as a step stool in the kitchen. Except for the lowest height using the double board, the steps aren’t very deep for an adult, but they still work. And I love that it’s so sturdy. I can feel safe and stable reaching the highest cabinets in my kitchen.

Zoey found it very easy to use the step stool independently. She easily climbed the steps. The side rails made it extra safe.

Zoey LOVES to wash her hands (for long periods of time), and she felt very safe and secure using the Little Partners step stool for hand washing.

Another day, I tried leaving the step stool next to the cold-water faucet so that Zoey could be completely independent in washing her hands. With the step stool in this position, she can turn on the cold-water faucet (but not the hot-water faucet) and wash her hands safely and independently.
Zoey was so proud … as you can see in the photo! 🙂

The 3-in-1 Growing Step Stool is another product I highly recommend because of its safety and high-quality construction.

    My six year old likes to make her own PB & J sandwiches but she isn’t tall enough to reach the counter, I also have a two year old who would use this.

    I’ve got an elementary aged son and a baby who wants to join in all the fun. I have just started looking into ways to incorporate Montessori components to our home and life style….winning this would go a long way! Thank you for this opportunity 🙂
