1. Start with the workstation, not a single height number
List the bed model, floor surface, working end of the bed and any shelf or frame beneath it. Measure the bed in the position in which it will actually be used. A height measured at the cushion top tells you little about the knee space below the frame. Record both references separately.
If several rooms use different beds, do not approve the stool against only the newest room. Build a short compatibility matrix covering the relevant bed versions. Mark an untested combination as unverified, even when the products look alike. This avoids converting one successful sample check into an unsupported approval for an entire salon fleet.
2. Define how lash stool height is measured
Ask whether the listed minimum and maximum run from the floor to the seat surface, seat frame or another reference. Note whether the seat is unloaded. Cushion compression and seat shape can change the working reference, so compare measurements taken with the same method.
For a practical fit trial, use the assembled sample according to its instructions and within the manufacturer’s stated limits. Record the setting and the seated reference used by the evaluator. Do not improvise load tests or assume the lift cylinder label establishes the capacity of the complete stool.
| Workstation item | Record before ordering | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Bed top and underside | Separate height references and bed setting | Distinguishes working level from available clearance |
| Lash stool height range | Minimum/maximum and measurement method | Makes supplier figures comparable |
| Base and wheels | Footprint, wheel reference and floor | Identifies layout and replacement changes |
| Nearby equipment | Trolley and shelf positions | Shows the intended working configuration |
3. Check clearance under and around the bed
Look at the full route into the working position. The stool may fit below the bed edge while its base contacts a crossbar or cabinet. Observe clearance for the seat, backrest if fitted, base and adjustment lever. Photograph the setup from the side with the sample reference visible.
Include the normal nearby trolley or storage shelf in the trial. A bare demonstration room can conceal conflicts that appear when the station is equipped. Distinguish a room-layout issue from a stool component issue before rejecting a sample or asking the supplier to change it.
4. Compare adjustment access in the intended setup
Check that the intended operator can identify and reach the adjustment control using the supplier’s operating instructions. Record whether the adjustment range needed for the specific workstation is available without contact with the bed or other furniture.
Avoid prescribing one universal number for lash stool height. The useful procurement outcome is a recorded fit decision for each tested configuration. If users cannot find a workable setup, request another configuration or qualified workstation advice instead of describing the stool as ergonomically suitable.
5. Record the base, casters and floor together
Identify the base footprint, caster model and floor surface used during review. Ask the supplier which floor types the casters are intended for and whether brakes or alternate wheels are available for that exact model. Do not infer floor compatibility from wheel color or appearance.
Treat a replacement caster as a controlled change. A different wheel or fitting can alter the assembled height and footprint. Keep the original part reference and request confirmation of the approved replacement; visually similar parts do not establish interchangeability.
6. Confirm assembly and transport configuration
Request the assembly instructions and a complete parts list with the sample. Check that the supplied configuration matches the quotation, including backrest, seat, lift, base and casters. Do not attempt to open or modify a lift cylinder during a procurement review.
Record how the components are packed and protected. For a formal shipping assessment, select the appropriate procedure with a qualified packaging provider. The ISTA test-procedure overview distinguishes screening from transport simulation; it does not certify the pictured stool or establish its operating safety.
| Sample outcome | Purchase decision | Evidence to retain |
|---|---|---|
| Fits the tested setup | Approve that named configuration only | Measurements and dated photos |
| Missing dimension or instructions | Hold approval and request clarification | Question list and supplier response |
| Component substitution | Review the changed assembly | Old/new part references |
| Different bed or floor | Run a new compatibility check | Updated workstation record |
7. Freeze the approved fit record for reorders
Keep the sample code, measurements, photographs, assembly version and unresolved questions together. Your lash stool height acceptance record should name the tested bed and floor rather than simply say “comfortable” or “fits all beds.” Separate dimensional fit from product safety documentation and the supplier’s commercial terms.
When placing a repeat order, ask whether any seat, lift, base, wheel or packaging component has changed. A substitution may require another fit check even if the model name remains unchanged. Use the record to compare samples, not to promise a fixed service life.
Prepare a sample inquiry
Bring your component list, intended configuration, quantities, destination and open questions to the FanLash wholesale inquiry team. Ask which options are currently available and what evidence is needed before approval. Availability, pricing and terms require confirmation for the requested item.
For the broader approval process, review our lash quality-control framework and lash sample planning guide; accessory-specific terms still need to be agreed.
Frequently asked questions
Is one lash stool height suitable for every bed?
No universal height is established by this guide. Check the assembled stool against the actual bed, floor and intended working setup, and record the tested configuration.
Does advertised stool height include the cushion?
The reference can vary. Ask the supplier where the measurement starts and ends and whether the seat is loaded or unloaded before comparing figures.
What should a wholesale stool sample record contain?
Include the model and component references, assembly instructions, seat-height measurements, bed clearance, floor type, photos and any unresolved questions.
Can replacement casters change workstation fit?
Yes, a different caster assembly can change the stool geometry. Confirm the approved replacement and recheck the assembled height and clearance rather than relying on appearance.
