Attaché is a portable folding stool with a proper seat height (H18″) which can be folded as small as a briefcase(L19.5″ H2.5″.) The handle as a latch can increase the unfolding stability, and the restricted-angle pivots can provide a stronger bearing strength for the front and rear legs to stand independently and stably.
Attaché can benefit both tall and short users to have a friendly experience of carrying and sitting. Also, the folding volume is convenient for users like tenants to move and storage frequently, especially in New York City, where the tenants are the majority.
