In this article we look at garden kneelers that can also be used as a seat. In other words, they serve both purposes. In the sitting position you have a comfortable seat, and when reversed, you kneel on a foam pad, and can use the seat legs, to help pull you back up to an upright position.
There is an automatic assumption, that these are designed only for older gardeners. It is certainly true that older gardeners appreciate them more, but the reality is, any gardener will be able to make good use of one of these.
You can buy just a simple kneeler, or some type of kneeling pad, but why bother when you can have that, and also a seat at the same time. The price difference is not that big, and a seat is always a handy thing to have around a busy garden. Below we look at the top rated kneeler and seat combinations, currently available in the UK market.

Safety First
The most important thing is always to stay safe. That applies as much to these as to any other area of life. Some of these products that are on sale of this type, are cheap and poorly made. Avoid those at all costs, otherwise you could have a nasty fall, or an injury of some kind.
The ones that I have listed above, get overall very high ratings from satisfied buyers. At least that way, you know they have been tried and tested. You also know that they are good quality and safe to use in your garden, greenhouse or yard.
