Padded Step Stools
For standing or sitting, padded step stools give you comfort where you need it most; the feet and fanny. And they also give added traction when climbing, so you don't have an accidental slip. Every step is padded, so feel free to grab that item off that high shelf, then take a seat on the top step and read the instructions on the box or can. Great for pantries.
