There are other children’s safety stools. What makes The Learning Tower different/better?

Although there are other products on the market that claim to have the same benefits as the Little Partners Learning Tower, the Learning Tower does have several benefits that others' kitchen helpers do not.

• Many hold less than 130 lb. and are not equipped to hold more than one child at a time.  The learning tower can hold up to 500 lbs. and is designed to be able to comfortably hold two children at a time. 
• The Learning Tower is safe for children as young as 18 months old. Others recommend that your child be at least 3 before using.
• The Learning Tower will not tip over while your child is inside or when climbing in. Other products that are built to fold do not have the same base construction or safety standards,
• The Learning Tower's platform is easily adjustable with no tools required.
