Would a kick stool be suitable for my dad to use on slabs?
Question:It would make it easier for him to weed the borders, as he is unstable on his feet. Can you recommend which one to get?
Answers:
there are actually padded garden kneelers (and some that are raised with wheels so you don't have to keep getting up and down.) call some of your local nurseries and garden stores, you'll find 'em.
A kick stool has the disadvantage that you are bending over more which can make you dizzy and unstable.
Assuming you are in the UK go onto eBay and look at item 180138741196 (£16.98). The side arms make getting up much easier as your arm muscles don't deteriorate as much as knee and leg muscles.
