Oribel PortaPlay Stools, Multi

First off, I like these stools. I love the Oribel PortaPlay—when our little one was small enough to go inside, she had a blast going from toy to toy. Once she was too big for that and we converted it to a table, we left a few of the toys in it and she played with those while using the table as a table. It’s an amazing product—I recommend it to new parents all the time. The problem with the stools is that the feet have somewhat sharp edges. So, if your child flips the stool upside down, or picks it up and walks around with it (both of which are very typical things children do with stools), they risk hurting themselves when they inevitably trip and fall. The feet do not flip under like the table legs do, so they become little slightly blunt impaling devices. When we first got these, we ended up taking them away from our child because she thought keeping them upside down and spinning them was the best thing ever, which just wasn’t safe for her. Once she got a bit older and was using it mainly as a stool (sometime as a table, sometimes as a block), we gave one back to her but she’s still going to pick it up and move it around or flip it over. Particularly since there is no minimum age listed for these, I recommend using a fair amount of caution when introducing them or waiting until they’re older. Or choosing stools with more significant legs, so the impact of any fall is dispersed (and eye injuries are less likely).

My grandsons love these stools. They are one and three.

The stools to the Oribel PortaPlay are just as nice as the PortaPlay Table. My grandchildren love them and they are easy to store when not in use.

These stools slide all over the place if you dont put them on carpet. There are no grips on the bottom like the table has. They arent strong enough to hold adults so you cant sit with your child. They are also pretty short. They also tip over easily. I wish I had bought different chairs.

These little stools keep sliding on our hardwood floor, right out from under my son. They match the table, which is great, but I might have to put them away until my 2 year old is a little older and more stable. Edit: My now 3 year old just doesnt use these at all. He says theyre too slippery. I tried to put non-slip pads on them, but they just peeled off. Im super disappointed. So yeah, theyre cute, and theyll match your table, but just spend your money on something with some built-in non-slip properties.

Sturdy stools. I’ve even sat on them when playing with our 1yo. We have the accompanying table and they work well together.

Matches the table perfectly; only wished it came adjustable like the table.

Great size, sturdy, fits great with the table. It helps my 18 mo old feel like a big girl and learn how to sit at the table with a snack or to color. But its also still low enough to the ground that Im not constantly concerned she will fall. Best thing we bought this Christmas!

These are great for my toddlers, but I wish they were a little taller or had the same adjustable legs like the table does. They aren’t cheap but are sturdy and see them holding up.

great chairs that go with the activity table
