ACKO 16-Inch Folding Step Stool, Black, 400 lb Capacity with Safety Lock

ACKO is a 16-inch folding step stool designed to provide extra reach at home or outdoors, with a pin-style safety lock and a capacity of 400 lb (181 kg).

• 16-inch step height (40.6 cm) — adds reach for everyday tasks.
• Holds up to 400 lb (181 kg) — accommodates adults and children.
• Folding design with locking pins — opens for use and folds away afterward.
• Reinforced construction — includes plastic reinforcement at the four bottom corners and plastic steel bars beneath the panel.
• Non-slip surface and textured rubber corner straps — add grip at the standing surface and base.

When a cupboard, closet shelf, or other everyday spot is just out of reach, this folding stool provides a step up without the format of a step ladder. Its 16-inch height and movable handle suit tasks around the house as well as outdoor activities where a little extra height is useful.

How does the ACKO step stool lock open?

The stool uses a pin structure that locks into place when it is fully opened; listen for the pins to click before stepping on it. Its patented design combines those pins with reinforced areas beneath the stool to support a stated maximum load of 400 lb (181 kg). The upgraded construction adds reinforcement at all four bottom corners and several plastic steel bars beneath the panel.

• Open the stool completely before use.
• Use it only on a dry, flat surface.

What features help with footing and handling?

The ACKO stool has a non-slip standing surface, a movable handle, and black, textured, non-slip rubber straps at the bottom corners. These features are designed to improve grip and help reduce slipping and finger traps during use. The corner straps complement the pin-lock structure rather than replacing the need to open the stool fully.

• Keep both feet on the stool; do not stand on its edge with one foot or stand on tiptoe.
• Do not move the stool while standing on it.

Where can I use this folding step stool?

ACKO’s step stool is intended for a range of indoor and outdoor settings, including the kitchen, closet, office, garden, RV, camping, and fishing. The folding format makes it useful for occasional reaching tasks in different places, while the movable handle supports handling between tasks. Choose a dry, level surface and confirm the pins have clicked into place each time you open it.

• Suitable for adults and children.
• Designed for reaching tasks that need a little extra height, without using a step ladder.

This stool suits adults and children who need an extra step for household reaching or activities such as camping and fishing. It is designed for use on dry, flat ground, with the stool fully opened and locked before anyone steps on it. Its 16-inch height, folding format, and pin-lock construction make it a practical fit for those tasks.
