I work in a general surgeons office. We have a smaller step and our doctor wanted a larger step for the unsure footed and larger patients. One of our patients decided to find us a larger step. He emailed me the website and I showed the doctor hence the order.

Note From the editor:

This is the exact same thing we keep hearing from nurses that work in operating rooms, “we’re using a flimsy Rubbermaid step stool and it’s dangerous”. The 500 pound rating of all Shure-Steps with it’s “No Tip, No Slip” design makes it the best new step stool to use in any hospital or surgery center.

After surgery you’re in your hospital room by yourself. You need to go to the bathroom…really bad and you know trying to get into your hospital bed can be a challenge. You’re weak from surgery and a little dopey, so your bed presents a challenge…whether getting in or out.

Mechanic Step Testimony

I was trying to find my husband a birthday present and had noticed that he was using wood or tires or whatever was handy to reach over the top of his race cars and trucks to work on them. I thought ” that’s not quite safe” so I searched the internet for “Mechanic step” and your website popped up. It looked exactly like what I was looking for. I have been to several different stores and did not find exactly what I was looking for. Hopefully everything on your site has said this step is will work for him.

Note from the editor:

I love hearing stories like this because I’m a mechanic by trade. In 1992 I fell off a plastic milk crate while tuning up a 4-wheel drive truck. That’s when the light bulb went off in my mind about trying to design a step stool that wouldn’t tip or slip while you’re standing on it trying to lean over the fender on a truck. Still have the very first Shure-Step we ever made 12 years ago like the one Marsha ordered. Oh, and we are still using that very same step today in our auto repair shop.

The Shure-Steps aren’t just for working on trucks and cars; they work well for aircraft passengers and mechanics too!

Guides in Choosing a Safe Library Step Stool

School time is fast approaching now. And libraries will be filled with students once again.Have you ever experienced reaching books on top of the shelves with difficulty? Or even standing on a step that’s not safe for you to climb a little higher? Most of our libraries have high shelves to reach.

And most of their step stools are not dependable for library usage. Many libraries use a round plastic step stool that has a small top that seems impossible for both feet to stand on, and doesn’t even have a load rating.

There are also other libraries that use a ladder to reach higher shelves. But among all these step stools spreading around with safety promises they bring, would you know which from them really offers you the safety anyone would need?

Worries no more! The Shure-Step’s safe library step stool is the only step stool that qualify and satisfy every users needs of safety. Try to look for the excellent features brought to you by these step stools.

Next time you use a step stool in your library, consider these following DO’s and DONT’s for your safety:

 


• Step stool with legs are a no-no. ( this will bring you unwanted time in the hospital when its legs twist, break or bend when you shift your weight while reaching to put back books )

• Folding step stools are also a don’t. ( because of its poor strength to hold a subject on top, it will likely to tip over and create injury to you )

• Never use step stools with wheels or rollers ( its very dangerous for anyone on top if it slides, you may find yourself tumbling down to the floor )

• Step stool must have a minimum load rating of 500 lbs. ( this would carry heavier students even with loads of books on their hands )

• Look for a step stool with a flat base that touches the ground ( this way it can never tip over or there are no legs to bend and break )

• A step stool must have a wide and rough space on top ( this is to accommodate both feet so you can move freely and avoid falling while moving around )

So there was it! Be sure to use these guides when stepping on the step stool in your library. You’ll be glad you did!

The Safe Step Stool Guy, David C. DuPont has been helping people find solutions to their step stool problems for 13 years already. He knows best because he himself had a scary experience with faulty step stool before that’s why he invented the sturdiest and safest one. You can visit his site www.shurestep.com for his testimony or watch this video.

We Have Been Using a Metal Stool on Our Bus…Testimony

We have been using a metal stool on our bus, and our church members who take the bus aren’t getting any younger. I Googled for a step stool, and your product looked like it would fill the bill. I liked the size of the stool as well as the height for stepping from our bus’ last step. I will let you know what kind of feedback I get once we receive it and have had a chance to use it. I always appreciate a company that follows up to see how they can improve their product as well as their marketing.

Note From the editor:

Mike works for a church where the members are having a harder time getting on the bus than they are used to. The Shure-Step model Senior Step (SST) was designed with 4 directors of assisted living centers and retirement homes. They told us exactly what they wanted for their residents, a safe, sturdy 6 inch high step that is easy to see. Oh and by the way, it needs to hold a lot of weight. Bam! Done!

There is no other step stool in the world designed by and for seniors getting on and off a bus the way the Senior Step is.

Father with cancer….Testimony

I found your product on the internet. My father is older and has recently been diagnosed with cancer. He is quite weak and having trouble getting into my automobile. I was using a regular step stool but it was small and dangerous. Every step stool I found was not practical. I found your product by entering “ senior step stool “ into search engine hoping I could find a product that was geared to someone like my dad.

Maria

Editors Note:

Maria’s father is physically weak because his cancer has zapped his strength. Finding a safe step stool for him to use would seem fairly simple but as Maria eluded it is anything but easy to find a safe sturdy step that is lightweight yet large enough for a physically challenged elder to maneuver on. Maria found the Senior Step to be the step stool that best suited her dad’s needs because of the large top surface and the sturdy design of the rest of the step.

Senior Step for seniors and with health conditions.

David DuPont invented the Shure-Step. It is a stackable safety step rated at 500 pounds that has many uses; Seniors, bariatric patients, physical therapists, rehabilitation facilities, bus, train, aircraft and transportation drivers, warehouse workers, mechanics, and technicians, even children benefit from the stability and strength of the Shure-Step. Shure-Steps have a non-slip surface with height starting at 6 and 10 inches, and allows you to stack them to reach up to 16 to 22 inches high or more for a guaranteed safe reaching and stepping aid.
