Description
Thanks, Samantha! 😘
We love hearing families say that they use their Lux nearly every day. Because a toddler tower this intuitive was designed to fit seamlessly into your routine.
For impromptu weekday morning pancake making, for whine o’ clock in the afternoon when you just wanna let him splash in the sink for a few minutes of silence. For when you should have had dinner done 15 minutes ago but she won’t stop tugging at your pants leg asking for “up!”
We designed the Lux to be easy – because life with little ones is often anything but.

Known for its strength and durability, Baltic Birch is the primary material used to create most wooden climbers, toddler towers, and kid’s furniture throughout the industry. Baltic Birch trees are abundant in Northeastern Europe (hence the “Baltic” in the name) and are a rapidly renewable species.
You should know – –
The Baltic Birch used by ROAM and most industry peers is actually Baltic Birch PLYWOOD.
But wait! It’s not the plywood you’re thinking of….
Unlike the basic birch plywood you’re likely to pick up at your local home improvement store, Baltic Birch plywood is entirely composed of layers of Baltic Birch ply and contains no softwood, filers, or voids.
The result is a durable hardwood that lends itself well to everything from skateboard cores to premium cabinetry to your kids new favorite toy!
What we say: foldable.
What we mean: goes from sturdy, elegant toddler tower to 6-inches-wide and ready to store in about six seconds, with zero effort.
What they say: foldable
What they mean: after partial disassembly, the large tower can be folded into a large stack of wood. Or, the tower folds into another large piece of furniture.
The Lux was created as a space-saving solution based on our own needs, as city-dwelling parents raising twin toddlers in a small space.

Someone recently asked me my ideal outcome for a family who purchases a ROAM product.
“What do you hope a family gains?” they wanted to know.
My answer: harmony.
Because harmony is about things coming together to form a more consistent whole. It’s about family members and values and systems being in tune with one another. And I hope that’s what our products help facilitate.
Not necessarily peace or pleasure – which can seem impossible in the thick of parenting young kids – and certainly not perfection. But these small moments of harmonious connection….when you get the Lux out and bake the cookies despite the messy kitchen, when you use a climber and creativity to say ‘yes’ to a physically-driven child who sees the living room as an obstacle course, or to watch as a pre-verbal child is empowered to choose their own bedtime story from the Book Display.
What a gift to be a part of those moments. Thank you for inviting ROAM to be a part of your home.

When you have little kids, ease is everything! And ease was something we felt was sorely missing from the toddler tower market.
The towers we saw were bulky and cumbersome to move around the home, or to store when not in use; they had a long list of features that we had no interest in, like whimsical cutouts or attachable slides; and even the ones marketed as foldable simply folded into a different configuration with the same giant footprint.
Ease for us – with our tiny kitchen and twin toddlers – looks like a kitchen helper stool that folds out and folds away in < 10 seconds. Ease is being able to carry your tower around one handed. Ease is a wall mount to keep it up and away when not in use.
The Lux ✔️ all those boxes and then some. Easily.
#toddlerlife #socalmoms #familyowned #montessoriathome
When the kids are up before dawn the day after a long weekend, the theme of the morning is “make it easy.”
Easy like ➡️ store-bought waffle mix
Easy like ➡️ Blippi on in the background
Easy like ➡️ a foldable, double toddler tower that takes siblings from bickering to baking in no time
Oh, and a little whipped cream on the waffles doesn’t hurt!

Dear Lived-In, Real-Life Kitchens,
You are beautiful — from the curves of your snaking appliance cords to the Jackson-Pollock-esque spills on your backsplash.
The sink of dirty dishes from a meal well-loved. The crayon marks on cabinets from a childhood well-lived.
The intimacy you encourage with your unnatural lighting, awkward corners, and small footprint.
The rotating assortment of items (a single toddler sock, a screwdriver, a leaf…) that find their way onto every surface like artifacts in the museum of I’ll Put That Away Later.
You may shy away from Instagram in deference to those marble-coated, neutral-toned, stainless-steeled, pristine palaces.
But you – dear average kitchen – are the beating heart of this thing we call family life. You are worthy of celebration.
💛Tell Us Below: What Do You Love About Your Kitchen? 💛

And this was just the dry ingredients…😅
Also – look at how much they move in a few minutes. They also swap places often, and I never worry if they might fall off. That’s one of the reasons “just use a chair” was not a solution for us.

Foldable Wooden Lux Towers Made in San Diego
Ahh the kitchen — the heart of the home, and, for families with small children, often the heart of the chaos as well.
Because where there is a parent in the kitchen with a mission – washing dishes, putting away groceries, cooking meals – there is a child making it ‘mission impossible’ by tugging at pants legs, dumping the dog food, or sneaking another string cheese.
The solution? A learning tower that gets little ones out from underfoot and up to counter-height where they can see, explore, create, and engage!
Whereas most learning towers on the market introduce more problems than they solve thanks to lackluster functionality and mind-boggling bulkiness, our lux learning tower is both beautiful and beautifully practical.
Our patent-pending design combines single-action foldability with a height-adjustable platform — making it intuitive to use today, and as your child or family grows in the years ahead.
More features you’ll love:
- Available in Single or Double (to accommodate multiple children)
- Platform height adjusts to 14.5 inches or 18 inches
- Sturdy and sleek frame
- Folded depth of just 6 inches
- Adjustable, lockable safety bar
- Sealed with food-grade oil and wax mixture for easier cleaning
- Artisan-quality craftsmanship
- Made and manufactured in San Diego
So whether you want the whole family to join in on Sunday morning pancake making, or you need to buy yourself a few minutes of peace by letting your toddler splash in the sink; our hope is that the Lux makes the heart of your home a bit more harmonious.

Getting your child to be your new kitchen helper might sound like a mess that’s waiting to happen, but, in truth, it has a lot of benefits that can foster a healthy relationship — not only when it comes to food but also in terms of family.
As well as letting you spend more time bonding with your child, involving them in meal preparation will teach them early on about the importance of making nutritious food choices that they can carry over in their adult life.
Considering the above, allowing your child to become your little kitchen helper as early as their toddler years will positively impact their development as they grow — and this is when foldable Learning Towers for toddlers can come in handy.
Best Kitchen Helper for Toddlers
A collapsible learning tower for toddlers can be the best assistant your new kitchen helper will have when it comes to learning about the exciting ways they can lend a hand to mom and dad in the kitchen. The learning tower is a simple yet durable tool that kids 12 months and up can use to reach high places like the kitchen table, counter, or sink. With a wooden learning tower, you also won’t worry about their safety as it can support the weight of toddlers, allowing you to focus on having fun with them as you do simple kitchen tasks.
With a toddler tower, you can help your child learn about essential life skills, such as:
Responsibility and Self-Reliance
Teaching your little kitchen helper to prepare their meals will encourage them to be more responsible and self-reliant by getting them to complete simple kitchen activities by themselves. A toddler tower can also help kids reach things much easier with little to no adult assistance.
Basic Mathematical and Scientific Concepts
Following a recipe involves measuring, counting, and dividing the food or ingredients into portions. Kids will also get to learn the concepts of heating, cooling, or boiling ahead of their peers. Additionally, they will also engage different senses such as touch, taste, smell, and sight while cooking. Their foldable learning tower will give them the best view of what happens when cutting veggies or cooking meat, all from a safe distance.
The Importance of Hygiene
Learning towers for toddlers can help you teach them how to properly wash their hands before, during, and after meal preparation. Besides practicing personal hygiene, a toddler learning tower can help them reach the sink to wash food like fruits and vegetables.
Why Buy The Lux Tower From Roam Creative Play?
As well as teaching your kitchen helper about the joy of meal preparation and cooking, The learning tower offers many other benefits. It’s also an incredibly flexible tool your child can use for all sorts of playtime activities that can help refine their motor skills and bodily coordination. With its foldable safety handlebar, you can also be sure that your child won’t just slide off when going up or down their toddler tower.
Here are some other reasons why our folding learning tower can be one of the best educational tools for your child:
Made in San Diego
Our learning towers for toddlers are all made from locally sourced materials from San Diego, California. Available in both Baltic Birch and Poplar wood, The learning tower can handle a weight limit of 200 lbs. You can even get a double learning tower if your kitchen helper happens to be a pair. With its modern design and smooth finish, The learning tower is one of the best gifts San Diego parents can get their child.
High-Quality Towers for Your Child
Aside from its durable and beautifully crafted design, The learning tower has an all-natural food-grade organic wood coating that doesn’t contain any harmful toxins or chemicals that can put your little kitchen helper in danger. Our wooden learning tower also provides ample space with a width of 18 inches, a depth of 17 inches, and a height of 36 inches, with the platform height being 18 inches.
When used as a kitchen learning tower, these dimensions can reach most kitchen tables and counters, letting your child feel like they’re doing tasks that are just as important as those done by mom or dad.
Unique Folding Design Provides Easier Storage
Cleaning up and putting things away is just as important as learning how to cook, bake or prepare meals. With our collapsible learning tower, you can teach kids how to tidy up, as our folding learning tower can be easily stored or hung even in tight spaces. Our learning towers for toddlers aren’t bulky and can work even for houses with limited square footage.
& More
Getting your child a toddler tower can also help them with other activities, such as putting up stickers or decor on the wall, doing arts and crafts, or if they want to reach something from a height. You could even bring a foldable learning tower to a game or while camping indoors.
There are many ways you can use a toddler learning tower, not just as a kitchen learning tower. Get one for your child and watch them develop into an independent, well-rounded kid with a foldable learning tower.

If your in the market for a learning tower, stop searching you’ve found it! So beautifully made, and functional! I love that it folds because so many are so bulky and our kitchen is tiny so I thought we wouldn’t be able to get one, but roam made it possible! We love ours!!!
Lisa Sato –
Absolutely LOVE this great quality learning tower. It’s very well made and our almost 5 year old loves it. It’s allowed her to help us easier around the kitchen and we’ve been able to make so many messy and fun memories.

I am SO in love. This is my third purchase from Roam creative play and yet again, I am BLOWN AWAY! My son is only 15 months old but I have had my eye on the learning tower since he was much younger. I finally bit the bullet and placed my order taking a chance that he would be ready. While waiting for my order, I did my best to teach my son the practicals (mix, pour). Today as we put him in the learning tower for the first time, his eyes LIT UP and I have never seen my son soooooooo excited and eager in his life! This learning tower has opened up an entire world for my mister that just nurtures his independence! We couldn’t be more happy with this! It’s beautifully crafted and sturdy-no anxiety around it’s reliability! YAY FOR NO MO FOMO!

This is the BEST learning tower ever!! We don’t have a large kitchen so I love the convenience of it being able to fold up! Also the fact that it’s adjustable heights is incredible. My 2 year old is tall for her age, so I have a feeling we would need to adjust it sooner than later. Before buying this she would throw a fit if we didn’t hold her in the kitchen or set her on the counter to watch. Now, the moment we step into the kitchen, she’s right there on her tower ready to help. Even if she’s just watching, she’s so much happier being at a height she can see! We’ve even used it for wrapping presents with her. It’s versatile, compact, adjustable, and beautiful! What more could you want?

I really love this learning tower. I bought another one for my first child and it was nice but flimsy and took up quite a bit of floor space in our tiny house. I like that this tower can be folded up and stored on the wall to save space!

We absolutely love our luxe tower! The quality is amazing and it folds away so easily. It’s perfect for our little home. Most importantly, out toddler is obsessed!
Kathleen (verified owner) –
We love our Lux Tower. It folds, it adjusts in height, and it’s so gorgeous and minimalist to look at. There aren’t any towers like this out there, and especially not made in the USA. If you’re on the fence, go for it. It also cleans up easily (Nia taught me to use a Magic Eraser!). Graig was super easy to get in touch with in terms of customer service and questions that came up, and Nia posts tons of helpful and useful info on the Roam Instagram.
Emma R –
I was so excited when Roam released their new learning tower. As with all their other pieces, this product is both beautiful and functional. My son (20 months) loves it and so do I!
Mandi (verified owner) –
I absolutely love this tower! It’s so easy to unfold and fold to put away. It’s not large and clunky like some other towers I’ve seen. Perfect solution to a home with not a lot of space. We also received our tower almost two months ahead of schedule (it arrived in time for Christmas when originally i was told i wouldn’t get it till almost February!) Great business and great product.
Kathryn Hayes (verified owner) –
Love everything about this tower EXCEPT where one of the stability bars is located. Where it is located in the front allows the child to climb on it and use it as a ladder and get up on the counter or tip. Poor design flaw. If that issue were ever fixed I would recommend this to everyone and would get another for my next kid.
Graig at ROAM –
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, and for bringing up an important point: The location of the upper back support rail is positioned where it must be to maintain the structural integrity of the product, and while we certainly understand kid’s propensity to climb any and everything (that urge to climb is the origin of our business), it is crucial that our products are used only under adult supervision, and that the supervising adult enforces safe use.
Samantha (verified owner) –
Absolutely in love! We use it every single day, and even with the convenient fold ability we leave it out most times because it’s just so pretty. Thanks for making such a quality product!
Kim Carr (verified owner) –
I bought this Tower for my 18 month old grandson who loves to help in the kitchen. He can climb into it and stand at the counter helping Mom cook. My daughter requested this gift for Christmas and can’t say enough good things about the craftsmanship and joy of having it for our grandson. Thank you!
Kyla –
Having this tower for safe exploration/collaboration with our toddler has been fantastic. She may not be the neatest sous-chef, but we’ve been able to make memories without the stress of her safety. The quality of the tower is great and we appreciate the ability to support a small business made for growing babies.
Kirsty Roberts (verified owner) –
Exactly what we expected! Beautifully made and high quality wood. Our granddaughter will benefit
From this for years to come, and her parents will love using it multiple times a day . They are engaged with her ,in all learning situation, and being a year old….everyday learning happens! Great customer service, great updates and would recommend your company to any and all who have little ones!!
Thank you so Much!!

This product is of high quality and is very easy to put together! Our toddler loves it, and has already used it to practice cutting vegetables and also enjoys hanging out there while we are preparing dinner. We appreciated the quick responsiveness of the Roam team whenever we had questions prior to receiving our order, and would recommend this product and this company to anyone!
