Before we had access to the top cupboards riding on a little stool brinqueballant. It was decided to invest in a real small step and that's perfect. It is a bit expensive, but less than on amazon stores and super robust; it's not too heavy either to carry and position before folding (although for my wife). when unfolded, it is very solid, plastic glides protect the floor from scratches. This model with the three steps allow us to achieve the highest cupboards 2m from the ground without pb. When folded, ca impeccable ranks next to the ironing board. But good.
