1. Which toilet stool is best for health and design?
When searching for toilet stools, you will find many models. However, most of them look more like medical aids from a hospital. Practical, but not exactly attractive. The stuul® takes a different approach: it's not only healthy for your intestines, but also really stylish. Its two-piece design makes it super space-saving and it looks more like a designer piece than a stool. What makes it special is that it puts you in a natural squatting position. This relaxes your intestinal muscles and makes bowel movements much easier. Less straining, less stress on the body—this has been proven to be healthier. What's more, the stuul® is made in Germany from special EPP material. It is lightweight, stable, and warm to the feet—so no cold plastic. With its many colors and collections, it fits into any bathroom.
2. Why should I use a toilet stool like the stuul® instead of a normal stool?
Sure, you could just put a stool or a stack of books in front of the toilet. It works, sort of. But the difference is: the stuul® was designed specifically for this task. It has the perfect height, the optimal angle, and is two-piece—so you can position your feet exactly how you find most comfortable. Regular stools are often too high, too low, or too bulky. Then you sit unnaturally or the thing is constantly in the way. What's more, the stuul® doesn't look like a “poop stool,” but like a lifestyle product. Visitors don't even realize it's a toilet stool – they often think it's a designer piece or even a box. With a normal stool, you have a makeshift solution. With the stuul®, you have a well-designed product that is optimized for your health, can be stored in a space-saving manner, and looks good too.
3. What are the advantages of the stuul® toilet stool over conventional models made of plastic or bamboo?
Many toilet stools come from the Far East and are cheaply made from bamboo or simple plastic. At first glance, this may sound eco-friendly or practical, but it often isn't. Bamboo is often grown and processed under questionable conditions – this is rarely environmentally friendly. Plastic is cold, unstable, and quickly becomes unsightly. The stuul®, on the other hand, is manufactured in Germany – sustainably, climate-neutrally, and from 100% recyclable EPP. The material is super light, yet stable and feels pleasantly warm on your feet. What's more, it comes in two parts. You can slot the two parts together when you're not using it. Space-saving and discreet. And it's really stylish, with cool colors ranging from classic to neon. The biggest advantage: Stuul® is not only functional, but also a statement for sustainability, health, and good design.
4. Is the stuul® also suitable for small bathrooms, and how space-saving is it to store?
Many people initially think, “My bathroom is too small for a toilet stool like this.” This is exactly where the stuul® offers the perfect solution: it consists of two parts that can be easily slotted together. This makes it extremely compact and allows it to be easily stored in a corner, under the sink, or even behind a curtain. Unlike a normal stool, it does not permanently block the space in front of the toilet. And best of all, even when it's out in the open, it doesn't look like a medical device, but rather like a designer piece. It doesn't look out of place even in the smallest bathroom. Many customers say that this is exactly why they love the stuul®. Space-saving, practical, stylish.
5. What material is the stuul® made of, and why is it better than wood or plastic from the Far East?
The stuul® is made of EPP (expanded polypropylene). It sounds technical, but it's ingenious: it's a high-tech material that is extremely light yet stable. What's more, it feels warm when you put your feet on it. No cold plastic feeling! EPP is also 100% recyclable. All production waste and returns are returned to the cycle – so no waste, just real recycling. Wood may sound natural, but it is usually processed in low-wage countries, where it is often anything but sustainable. Plastic from the Far East is usually cheap, unstable, and short-lived. With stuul®, you get a product that is produced in Germany under fair conditions and is climate-neutral. Quality, sustainability, and a pleasant feel – three good reasons why EPP is the best choice.
6. Does the stuul® toilet stool really help with digestive problems such as constipation or hemorrhoids?
Yes, and this has even been scientifically proven. Normally, we sit too upright on the toilet. This causes the intestine to become blocked, as if it were bent. The stuul® puts you in a squatting position, which relaxes the intestinal muscles, straightens the rectum, and makes everything easier. Less straining means less stress on the intestines and less pressure on the blood vessels. This is precisely why doctors and midwives recommend toilet stools for problems such as constipation or hemorrhoids. Many customers report that they felt noticeable relief after just a few days. The stuul® supports your body the way nature intended.
7. Is the stuul® also suitable for pregnant women, children, or older people?
Definitely. Pregnant women in particular benefit greatly from a toilet stool, as hormonal changes often lead to constipation. Midwives therefore regularly recommend stools such as the stuul®. It is also helpful after childbirth, as it relieves pressure on the pelvic floor. Children often find it fun and intuitive to use. Older people, on the other hand, appreciate that they have to push less, which is easier on the intestines and pelvic floor. The stuul® is stable, lightweight, and easy to use—making it suitable for all age groups.
8. How sustainable is the stuul® toilet stool compared to other toilet stools?
Sustainability is one of the major advantages of the stuul®. It is produced entirely in Germany – using green electricity, climate-neutral, and certified according to ISO standards. The material is recyclable and there is a genuine recycling process for production waste. The packaging is made of grass paper instead of plastic. In comparison, many other toilet stools are cheaply produced in the Far East, with long transport routes and questionable working conditions. So the stuul® is not only good for your health, but also for your conscience.
9. Can I easily take the stuul® with me when traveling?
Of course! That's exactly what it was designed for. It's super light and compact, and the two parts can be stacked inside each other. Many customers take it with them to hotels or vacation rentals—some even take it camping. Unlike bulky wooden or plastic models, you can easily throw the stuul® in your luggage or carry it over your shoulder with a carrying strap. And best of all, it doesn't even look like a toilet stool. Perfect if you don't want to sacrifice your usual comfort when traveling.
10. Why is the stuul® not only functional, but also a genuine lifestyle product for the bathroom?
Because it is more than just a stool. The stuul® combines health, design, and sustainability in one product. It does not make your bathroom look “medical,” but stylish. With its many colorful and cheerful colors, it fits in with any interior design style. At the same time, it promotes well-being and is a real conversation piece—many guests ask curiously what this cool design object is. That's exactly what makes the stuul® special: it's a lifestyle product that's not only practical but also makes a statement.
