FAQs
What are the dimensions of the stool when folded?
The product description provides the open dimensions (W 40 x D 37 x H 46 cm) but not the folded dimensions. However, its folding design aims for compact storage.
Is the fabric seat water-resistant?

What is the weight capacity of the stool?
The product information does not specify a weight capacity. It is designed for typical personal seating needs for outdoor relaxation.
Can this stool be used indoors?
While primarily designed for outdoor use, the stool's simple and refined aesthetic allows it to be used indoors as a temporary seat or decorative element.
How should I clean the beech wood frame?
Wipe the beech wood frame with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or prolonged soaking. For maintenance, a light wood oil can be applied occasionally.
Does the stool come assembled?
Yes, the stool comes fully assembled and ready to use out of the box, requiring only unfolding.
Are there other color options available?
Yes, the HAY Outdoor Market Folding Stool is available in a range of color options, including Black and Blue, in addition to Beige.
Troubleshooting
Stool does not sit flat or wobbles
Ensure the frame is fully opened and locked into its stable position. Check that all legs are making even contact with the ground. Minor adjustments may be needed if the ground is uneven.
Fabric seat appears loose
The seat is designed to have a slight give for comfort. If it appears excessively loose or detached, check the stitching and attachment points. Ensure the frame is correctly oriented.
Difficulty folding or unfolding
Ensure there are no obstructions within the folding mechanism. Operate the stool smoothly and deliberately. If stiffness persists, check for debris and ensure the frame is clean.
