UMAGE Step It Up Step Stool

A removable storage bag turns this kitchen step stool into a place for grocery bags or recyclables too.

Jonas Søndergaard designed Step It Up for UMAGE's Copenhagen studio to reach higher shelves while cutting down on plastic bag use. Anti-friction shoes keep it steady underfoot, and you can step up from three sides; the removable storage bag is machine-washable at 30°C.
