Buy a Garden Kneeler Seat Online

Updated on December 9, 2012

Garden kneelers that can be turned upside-down to function as garden seats are among the smartest garden tools ever to have been invented. They are not just for folks who have knee or back problems.

They are for anyone who wants to have a more comfortable experience in the garden while performing tasks that strain the knees and back and for anyone who wants to safeguard their joints and muscles for the future.

Garden Kneeler Features To Consider before Buying

Not every garden kneeler is right for everyone. Some fold flat for small-space storage, some need assembly, some are heavier than others, some are longer and wider than others, and some are more expensive.

When shopping for a garden kneeler for yourself or someone else, consider these factors:

  • How much storage space is available (would a folding garden kneeler suit my purposes better than one that doesn’t fold)?
  • How much assembly do I want to do?
  • What weight capacity do I need?
  • Do I need an adjustable height?
  • Do I want a garden kneeler that rocks (like a rocking chair) when used as a seat?
  • How much am I willing to spend?

The product listings that follow will give you helpful information for choosing a garden kneeler seat that meets your needs.

Step2 5A0100 Garden Kneeler

Just snap the double-walled plastic pieces in place, right out of the box, and you are in business with this garden kneeler and seat.

At 7-1/2 pounds and with a convenient hand-hole in the top, this kneeler and seat is easily portable. Once assembled, it is not collapsible or foldable. However, unlike most other garden kneelers, this one can be used as a stepping stool as well.

At 16-1/4 inches high, the garden seat brings you a bit closer to the ground than most other models.

The 3/4-inch foam pad attaches to the kneeler with Velcro strips and can be removed to use by itself in the garden.

Made of all-steel construction, the Yard Butler GKS-2 kneeler is sturdy for kneeling or sitting and supports up to 250 pounds. Requiring no assembly, this folding garden kneeler weighs 8 pounds, making it easy to lift and carry.

The folded dimensions are 24 x 11 x 5 inches, a convenient size for small-space storage, while the standing height is 19 inches. Each side is cushioned with a 3/4-inch thick foam pad.

Midwest Gloves and Gear 53 Kneeler Bench

At under 6 pounds, this square-steel garden kneeler and seat with powder coat finish is sturdy and durable, with a weight capacity of 250 pounds. No assembly is required, and the kneeler folds flat to 23 x 11 x 4.5 inches for convenient storage.

Notice that the arm and hand supports project beyond their supporting bars. Although this feature may contribute to stability, it may also catch the inside of a short-sleeved shirt when you are in the kneeling position, if you are of a certain height and posture.

Garden Odyssey GBC2100 Kneeling Bench

When being used as a seat, this lightweight, folding garden kneeler (under 9 pounds shipping weight) places you 16 inches from the ground. When being used as a kneeling bench, it places you 4 inches from the ground. For convenient storage, it folds to 24 x 12 x 4.5 inches.

Garden Odyssey GBC2360 Deluxe Rocking Kneeler Bench

This clever garden kneeler adjusts in height from 16 to 19 inches. In the kneeling position this flexibility allows you to choose a comfortable height for your hands when you are ready to stand up from kneeling. In the sitting position this height flexibility, along with the rocking feet, gives you even more choice about the right distance to the ground for you.

The kneeling cushion is longer and wider than most and comes with a washable cover. At only 3.8 pounds, this garden rocking garden kneeler seat is super-easy to lift, carry, and flip over.

About Garden Kneeler Pads and Cushions

Garden kneelers come with cushioned pads of different sizes and different degrees of softness. What is ideal for one person may not be for another. However, you always have the option of placing a kneeling pad or folded towel of your own on top of the manufacturer’s pad for additional comfort.

Garden Kneelers Aren't Just for the Garden

Here are some additional uses for these versatile tools:

  • Outdoor side or occasional tables
  • Sitting or kneeling while organizing and cleaning areas low to the ground such as cabinets and drawers
  • Kneeling while washing floors, painting low areas on walls, and laying tile
