Reviews

BrilliantElizabeth AndersThis step stool is perfect. Due to chronic pain and short stature it’s really hard for me to reach stuff from high shelves, and regular steps aren’t stable enough any more. Getting out a short ladder feels overkill, but this high handled step is absolutely perfect for accessing my shoes on high shelves in my robe. And bonus unexpected extra… it’s perfect for my elderly schnauzer to use to get up on the bed… It was really easy to put together and feels exceptionally stable. I liked that I could choose which side the handle was on. I expect to get another one to keep in the kitchen and to double as schnauzer access onto the couch. 5

Accessibility can be stylishCarmenSturdy, supportive, great usability and multifunctional. Great option for those with some mobility difficulties.5
BASINGEN 2 stepsSharonGood and stable design, but the safety handle is preferred to be higher for grasping when descending the steps.4
Almost uselessCameronBought this item as it looks modular and sturdy. it is almost neither. It's heavy, so moving it around is cumbersome. The feet slides so no use as a footrest. The platforms are not exactly flat, hence items keeps sliding off. Also tacky plastic with tacky textures not very Scandinavian. Bring back the pine step stools please.3
Excellent stoolVickiI use this in my spare room to access suitcases etc from top cupboards. If I’d very sturdy and having a handhold provides extra security. 5
Very handy little stoolErinVery handy little stool. I like the rail which gives you some extra stability when climbing up the steps. It also looks nice and sleek.5

A little support that can make a big difference

A helping hand on your way out of the bathtub, when you want to reach the top of the bathroom cabinet – or simply feel a bit groggy on an early morning. Our BÄSINGEN product series is there for convenient support when you need it the most. Designed for the bathroom, but just as useful throughout the home.

Life at home is in constant change, and the needs can shift quickly. “Maybe you pushed extra hard in the gym and woke up feeling all stiff. Then you might need a little extra support and help with the simplest everyday things. Like taking a shower,” says designer Sarah Fager.

A safe grip

Sarah started off the project by studying how people with physical limitations move, and what their needs are. “It often feels good to be able to hold on to something with your hand. That’s why we developed the wall-mounted towel rail and shower shelf. But the step stools and the shower chair are stable and grip-friendly supports, too.” The shower chair can also add a bit of everyday luxury: imagine sitting comfortably and steadily and feeling the warm water pouring over your body.

Support that blends in with the home

The products were created to take up little space and have a minimalistic expression that is rooted in our Scandinavian design tradition. “They should blend in regardless of your style and shouldn’t be something you need to put away or hide.” Sarah hopes that the series will make a difference in the everyday life of many people. “This was one of my most challenging design projects because it was about meeting needs that were new to me. But this also made it one of my most enlightening projects. I wish BÄSINGEN will be something you can live with for a long time. Maybe you will use the products a bit less during certain periods in life, but they are always close at hand, ready to provide support.”
