Where are your learning towers made?

Our Folding Learning Towers are designed in Australia and manufactured in China under very strict specifications.

We originally made them locally, but as demand grew, it became unsustainable to continue manufacturing in Australia while maintaining the level of quality we expect.

What hasn’t changed is the standard.

Every unit is produced to match our original design, materials, and safety requirements, with tight quality control at every stage.

What makes your tower different from other folding towers?

Short answer: they might look similar at a glance, but the build and design are very different once you look closer.

Here’s where we stand apart:

Stronger core material

We use a birch plywood core, not poplar or other soft woods.

Poplar is lighter and cheaper, but it wears down faster over time, especially with daily climbing.

Higher-grade plywood

We use European plywood, not standard cheap ply, which gives better durability, consistency, and finish.

Smarter structural design

Our tower uses three different wood thicknesses (12mm, 18mm, 24mm) to optimise strength without unnecessary weight.

Most others use the same 18mm thickness throughout.

120kg weight rating

Built to handle real life.

Kids, parents, reaching high cupboards, quick jobs around the house.

Compact fold (just 14cm)

No bulky bottom step sticking out.

Easy to store beside the fridge or in a pantry.

No unnecessary add-ons

No fiddly locking knobs or flared legs.

Designed with step ladder safety principles, not irrelevant high chair standards.

Why isn’t your tower adjustable?

This is a deliberate design decision.

Adjustable towers:

• Require assembly
• Introduce weak points in the structure
• Often loosen over time

Instead, we designed a fixed platform height that works across a wide age range:

⭐ Young toddlers can safely stand up at and see the bench
⭐ Older kids can still use it comfortably
⭐ Bigger kids often use it without the safety bar for extra reach and a better cutting angle

It’s a simpler, stronger, longer-lasting solution.

What age is the learning tower suitable for?

Generally from when your child can stand confidently, independently and follow simple instructions (around 12–18 months).

Most families use it right through to 5–7 years, and then it continues as a step ladder for the household.

Can adults use the learning tower?

Yes and we encourage it.

With a 120kg weight rating, it doubles as a sturdy step ladder for:

• Reaching high cupboards
• Cleaning
• DIY jobs around the house

It’s designed to be a whole-family furniture, not something you outgrow in a year.

Is it safe?

Safety is the core of the design.

⭐ Lower, wider standing platform for stability
⭐ Rotating safety bar to keep little ones secure
⭐ Solid construction with no weak adjustable points
⭐ Designed using step ladder safety principles

It also helps reduce unsafe behaviour like kids climbing onto benches or stools.

The folding element increases general household safety as it can be packed away, not allowing unsupervised bench access.

How much space does it take up?

This is one of the biggest reasons families choose ours.

When folded, it’s just 14cm wide, making it one of the slimmest folding towers available.

You can easily:

• Slide it beside the fridge
• Store it in a pantry
• Tuck it behind a door

No “bulky kids thing” taking over your kitchen. You also don't have to compromise between allowing your kids supervised bench access, and giving them access at all times.

Why is your tower more expensive than others?

Fair question and one most parents ask.

The price reflects:

• Higher-grade materials (birch core, European ply)
• Stronger, smarter design
• Higher weight rating (120kg vs much lower alternatives)
• No assembly required
• Long-term use for both kids and adults

Many cheaper towers look similar online, but use softer cores, thinner materials, and simpler builds that don’t hold up the same over time.

This is a product you’ll use daily, for years.

We are also a small family business, a husband and wife team who are so passionate about their product and customers.

We don't mass produce at the same level of other big brands, and we strive to give every one of our customers the best experience possible.

Does it come assembled?

Yes.

No tools, no setup, no stress.

It arrives ready to use straight out of the box.

Can it be used in the bathroom or other areas?

Absolutely.

The exterior grade, sealed plywood surface makes it suitable for:

• Kitchen
• Bathroom
• Laundry
• Around the house

Just make sure to wipe it dry if it gets spashed on directly. Don't leave water to sit and soak into the main platform or you may get some warping.

Do you ever run sales?

Short answer - no.

We focus on building a product that holds its value through:

• Quality materials
• Thoughtful design
• Long-term durability

Occasionally we will have small discount codes allocated to brand partners and we may do sales on accessories.

We don't ever want someone to regret buying one of our learning towers because it went on sale the week after they purchased.

Our price reflects the value of our product and we stand by it, so we don't run sales.
