No matter how nice, expensive, or fully customized home kitchens may be, they’re all likely to suffer from the same universal problem: unreachable shelves. Inevitably, through the course of stocking your kitchen cabinets with food, dishes, and Tupperware, you’re going to end up putting things in high-up places where you can’t reach them on your own. Thankfully we have a tool to turn those “junk cabinets” above your refrigerator (which you never actually use) into space-saving storage shelves: step stools.
Kitchen step stools aren’t just for the short crowd. They help you safely take out and put away appliances that don’t fit on your counters, seasonal serving platters, and specialized cooking tools. Step stools afford you full access to all the storage nooks and crannies your kitchen has to offer, so you can keep clutter at bay and truly enjoy your space. And, if you have kids, a good step stool gives them a safe vantage point to learn about cooking up close. Check out our top kitchen step stool picks below to find the right one for your home.
