Perching Stools FAQs
What is a perching stool?
A perching stool is designed to support those with limited mobility. The stool allows users to sit in a semi-standing position. This makes it easier for users to sit down and stand up. It also supports users when seated, reducing strain on the legs, hips and lower back.
What is the difference between a chair and a perching stool?
A perching stool differs from a chair as the seat has a slight tilt to allow users to take a semi-standing position. Perching stools are designed as a mobility aid for use when undertaking tasks around the home.
When should a perching stool be used?
Perching stools are commonly used when undertaking tasks around the home. For example, they are commonly used to support users whilst preparing dinner or folding laundry.
What is the benefit of a perching stool?
The stools are beneficial for users who struggle to sit down or stand up on a chair. Perching stools are designed to allow users to achieve a better posture. The sloped design takes pressure off the users legs, hip and back, in turn reducing the pain from prolonged standing. They are beneficial for those who struggle to stand for periods of time due to limited mobility, fatigue and joint pain. They allow users to undertake a semi-standing position whilst undertaking daily tasks, in turn promoting independence.
Who should not use a perching stool?
A perching stool should not be used by individuals with poor balance or control of the upper body when sitting. They are also not designed for individuals who cannot put any weight on one or both legs. If you are unsure whether a perching stool is suitable for you we would recommend contacting your doctor or Occupational Therapist for advice.
How do you use a perching stool safely?
It is important the perching stool is placed on flat, even ground to prevent movement. The stool should be used in a spacious area to reduce the risk of trip hazards.
When you wish to sit or stand up from the stool always hold on to both armrests to prevent the stool from moving.
When perched on the stool do not attempt to reach down towards the floor or lean to the side as this could lead to the perching stool tilting and in turn tipping over.
How easy is it to assemble a perching stool?
Perching stools are designed to be quick and easy to assemble. Assembly usually takes under 15 minutes. For full assembly details of your chosen stool please view the download on the product page.
What height should the perching stool be set to?
The perching stools are height-adjustable to allow you to set the stools to a height which is comfortable for you. When the stool is set up, your feet should have good contact with the floor.
How portable are perching stools?
Perching stools are lightweight and designed to be easily moved from one room to another when needed.
What is the weight capacity of the stools?
At The Ramp People, our perching stools have capacities up to 165kg, please view the product specification tab to view the capacity of your chosen stool.
How do you clean a perching stool?
Perching stools are designed to be easy to clean, most can simply be wiped clean with a cloth and mild detergent. Please view the user guide on your chosen model for full details.
Can perching stools be purchased VAT exempt?
Yes, as mobility aids, perching stools can be purchased VAT exempt for those in the UK. When purchasing the stool simply complete your VAT exemption details in the VAT relief box which shows when you add the item to the basket. We simply require the full name of the person the stool is for and disability or, if purchasing for a charity, the charity name and number.
