{"product_id":"folding-stool-garden-seat-and-collapsible-camping-stool","title":"Folding Stool – Garden Seat and Collapsible Camping Stool","description":"\u003cp\u003eGardening is mostly done at ground level, and the ground is a long way down. You crouch to thin the seedlings, kneel to weed the border, squat to repot, and every ten minutes you push yourself back up off one knee. By the end of a Saturday it is your knees and your lower back that stop you, not the daylight. A folding stool solves that, except most of them are the size of the job they are meant to make easier — a frame and a canvas seat that lives in the shed because carrying it out is its own chore. This one collapses to 6.4 cm, about the depth of a thick book, and pulls up to a full 45 cm seat in one movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0688\/8462\/7535\/files\/21d7562d-6142-45d3-bb2f-af3e3eb3a432.png?v=1791813912\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy It Stands Out\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt flattens to 6.4 cm\u003c\/strong\u003e — the whole stool concertinas down into a disc you can hold in one hand, which is what makes this collapsible stool actually come out to the garden instead of staying in the shed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOne kilogram\u003c\/strong\u003e — light enough to carry out with a trowel in the other hand, and light enough that it goes in the car without a decision.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRated to 200 kg\u003c\/strong\u003e — the PP structure takes a real adult in work boots, not a careful perch.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSet it to the height you need\u003c\/strong\u003e — up to 45 cm for a proper seat at the potting bench, or part-way up when you want to be low over a garden bed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReinforced locks on every ring\u003c\/strong\u003e — the segments latch as they extend, so it holds the height you set it to rather than creeping down while you work.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAnti-slip base\u003c\/strong\u003e — the pads on the bottom grip paving and decking instead of skating out from under you on a smooth surface.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eA strap for each way you carry it\u003c\/strong\u003e — a short hand strap on the seat and a 56 cm shoulder strap, so it slings over your shoulder for the walk down the back or hangs off a wrist.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0688\/8462\/7535\/files\/1c1eb35a-cd90-4ce7-aed4-e563c16d40f3.png?v=1791813910\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere to Use It\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAt the edge of a garden bed\u003c\/strong\u003e — the job it earns its keep on.
