Description
The Parsons Perching Stool Deluxe, item 20H026, is for anyone who tires standing at the counter, the ironing board or the sink. You perch on a padded seat rather than sitting right down, and the seat tilts forward, which the maker says is easier on the hips.
Where does it help?
Kitchen work, ironing, hobbies and washing at the sink are the jobs the maker names for it. In a bathroom it gives a seat that is not a chair. It is not a shower seat and not a commode.
Will it suit you?
The seat adjusts from 21 in to 27 in (53 cm to 68.5 cm). The arm rests are 20 in (50.8 cm) apart, the seat is 14 in wide by 11 in deep (35.5 cm by 28 cm), and the base covers 16 in by 22 in (40.6 cm by 56 cm) of floor.
Check the height against your counter or sink before you buy. If you are between settings, ring us on (905) 798-1853 and we will talk it through.
What is it made of?
The frame is powder coated steel with slip resistant rubber feet, the seat and backrest are padded, and the arm rests are chrome plated. Wipe it with warm water and a mild soap. The maker's warranty does not cover damage from harsh chemicals.
What are the limits?
The maker rates it at 250 lbs (114 kg). It comes requiring assembly, and it is a perch for light tasks rather than a chair to settle into. Our service team can assemble it for you.
