PERFECT
I've brought this for work, lightweight and worth the money
leobuck, 25 - 34
I should have got one sooner!
I had managed with short steps and longer steps, but often either was not just right - not enough reach or too tall and in the way. This is just right - the right height for lots of jobs, stable and enough width to not need moving too often.

Nearly Perfect
Excellent price Extremely Sturdy Lightweight for moving around Could be longer Could be Slightly taller I knew buying this that it wouldn't quite be as tall or as long as I wanted it to be as its clearly shown in the description but for the price and the painting job I needed it for it was perfect. If it were taller and longer it would suit other jobs slightly better but I still use it all the same as the perfect one is 3 times the price and this isn't too far off it anyway hence 5 star for what it is.
ROB, 35 - 44, Derry
Great bench at competitive price
I use this for kitting and dekitting when I go scuba diving and it’s great as compact for car and easy to put up.

If using the Werner Handy Aluminium Work Platform outside, it is important to ensure for safety reasons that there is a stable surface to work on. As we cannot ensure this, the recommendation would be not to use for hedge cutting.
Thanks for using Q&A.
Hi There,
Werner Handy Aluminium Work Platform
Having checked I can see the height of the platform is 50cm so it would depend how high your toilet is.
Thanks for using Q and A.
Hello Confused.
After contacting our suppliers they have advised for Werner Handy Aluminium Work Platform.
The maximum height is 0.5m (1ft 8"). I think the confusion may be due to some of the information on our website being incorrect (extended height provided when the product does not extend).
I will arrange for this information to be corrected.
Thank you for using Q&A.
Yes
Hello Brummie Bird,
The supplier has advised the following for the Werner Handy Aluminium Work Platform:
The supplier advises that the platform shall not be positioned on slippery surfaces such as ice, shiny surfaces (as you’d expect in most baths), or significantly contaminated surfaces, unless additional effective measures are taken to prevent the platform slipping and/or ensuring contaminated surfaces are sufficiently clean. They recommend this product to be used on solid flat ground.
So, technically, it might be possible to use it as long as suitable safety measures are taken. If there's something that can go in the bath that does not slip and prevents the item slipping this may help. This is subject to the bath being of a suitable shape and size, able to support the weight of the user and the platform. You'd also need to consider the risk of damage to the bath too.
It would also be at the user’s own risk were they to use it in a bath, even if safety measures are taken.
Thank you for using Q&A.
Yes but on a towel to stop scratches in the bath. I use mine for mounting my horse as well as decorating!
