I want to by i small 2-3 step ladder for use to reach the top shelves
in our bedroom. The ladder should be able to hang on the wall, and as
it will be visable at all time it should be an ok design (that is not
a "work-ladder" designed to use outdoor).
Can you please advise a webshop where I can find this? Preferrable in
Europe as I am situated in Norway.

Hi there tutuzdad-ga
Thanks for the suggestions, but I am looking for a smaller ladder.
Maybe the right term is more a step-help. I only need to get about
60-100cm up. The device should be able to fold together to hang on the
wall. As it will be visable at all time I want a piece that has a good
design preferrable in aluminium. (I have seen this before in a store,
so I know it exists :)

Thanx so far

How about something like this then? They come in 2, 3, 4 and 5 step
design. Folds up nicely and looks neat and tidy.

Hi again - I'm sorry, but not yet what I'm looking for. The one
suggestet at Amazone is the closest, yet it is not a specifically nice
piece of interior design. I've seen what I'm looking for in some
magazines without succeding in finding any brand name.

Any other suggestions is aprecciated

Hello again Andyco73,

From your description I believe this may be the ladder you have in mind.


Design Andries Van Onck.
Painted steel, fiberglass reinforced polypropylene.
Made in Italy by Kartell

"A functional folding step-ladder with three slip-resistant painted
steps attached to a central frame. Tiramisù underlines the lightness
of the design in the supporting structure: the curved bars offer
support on the ground and find a strong support element in the handle.
It can be hung on the wall, thanks to the design of the handle.
Closed, Tiramisù is only 3" wide for easy storage. It is handsome
enough to be left out in a room and serve as a sculptural design
element."

I've seen these chairs that flip up and convert to a small
step-ladder.  That might be a way to have something nicer easily
availlable, but not have to worry about a ladder hanging on your wall.
 Here's a link to one...

http://www.stonewallkitchen.com/prdsell.aspx?L0=HomeGarden&L1=Furniture&L2=FoldingChairLadder

I just googled - convert chair ladder - to find it.  It's not in
Europe, but I'm guessing you could find one over there if you decided
to go that way.

Nice chair, but not exactly what I was looking for :)

Thank you for the five star rating and nice tip!
