Browsing the new furniture collection at The Conran Shop over the weekend, we spied this Korc bathroom step stool from United Kingdom-based Authentics. Because cork is sustainable and its natural anti-fungal properties, cork is a great choice for a damp bathroom...












Who in their right mind would spend that much on a block of cork?

This might serve the same purpose, for about $100 less:

Plus, you get a strap out of the deal!

Eric D M: Genius! I just happened to have one of those gaiam blocks laying around, very much not being used for yoga, and this is a perfect little step stool for the kids bath.
Perhaps not quite as sleek as the Conran option, but free for me!

The Conran Shop option is very heavy - helping to keep the step stable. Is the yoga block heavy enough?

the yoga block is 2.2 pounds. how much does the conran shop block weigh? i saw dimensions, but not weight.
