Toilet Foot Stool – PROPPR

SILVER + EDITOR'S CHOICE
Best Natural Bathroom Product 2026

$299.00

Proppr is an Australian-designed toilet foot stool crafted in timber. It helps replicate the natural squat position on a Western pedestal toilet by elevating the knees above the hips, supporting easier, quicker and more complete bowel movements. Slimline design suits modern bathroom aesthetics.

Made from excellent, non-toxic materials. Sustainably sourced US hardwood timber with maple or hickory veneer. Plastic free.
Proppr manufactures its timber stools in Granite Falls, North Carolina, partnering with Burns Wood, a family-owned business selected for its transparent sourcing of sustainably grown US timber and ethical labour standards. The supply chain is regionally focused, with materials sourced from local mills and suppliers, supporting skilled trades and regional employment. The manufacturing facility enforces a minimum working age of 18, prohibits child labour, and maintains a safe, respectful and community-driven workplace.
Proppr uses sustainably grown US hardwoods sourced from responsibly managed American forests, verified through supplier documentation and manufactures in the United States with regionally sourced materials where possible. The product is designed for longevity, intended as a one-time purchase to reduce waste and avoid disposability. Packaging is predominantly cardboard-based, custom-sized to minimise material use and shipping emissions, with recycled plastic bubble wrap used to prevent transit damage and reduce returns.
Proppr supports local and family-owned manufacturers in Australia and the United States, prioritising artisan craftsmanship and contributing to local employment. The brand invests in preventative health education by providing accessible, science-informed resources and advocating for natural posture alignment. Proppr sponsors the FASED clinical study at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, supporting research into foot stools and pelvic floor dysfunction. The brand engages in community initiatives through volunteering with Estuary Learning and designs products to be accessible for individuals with mobility challenges, including Australian NDIS participants.

Product Reviews by Experts


What stood out most to me was the balance between functionality and design. The product serves a practical purpose, but unlike many bathroom aids, it has been thoughtfully designed to feel aesthetically considered and at home within a well-designed space. The quality of the materials is immediately apparent, and the information provided around how and why to use the product was clear, educational and easy to understand. As someone currently pregnant, I particularly appreciated the added comfort and support it provided. It’s one of those simple products that can make a meaningful difference to everyday wellbeing while still looking beautiful in the bathroom. I was particularly impressed by the brand’s commitment to quality, longevity and responsible sourcing. The use of sustainably grown US hardwood, support of family-owned manufacturing partners and emphasis on transparent supply chains demonstrate a genuine commitment to ethical production rather than simply prioritising cost. I also appreciated the brand’s focus on creating a durable product designed to last for many years, challenging the cycle of disposable consumer goods. Beyond the product itself, their investment in bowel health education and support of clinical research reflects a thoughtful approach to improving wellbeing through both advocacy and practical solutions.


Impressive list of thoughtful considerations in the production of these toilet stools, such as responsibly sourced, sustainably grown timber, premium materials, mindful packaging practices and the focus on a quality product with longevity in mind. The timeless, minimal design itself would be a beautiful addition to any bathroom.
