Abstract
A shower or bath stool having a storage area for items used in the toilet provides four non-skid legs, a movable top seating surface, and a storage space within. A series of vents and drain holes is provided so as to assure rapid drying and low humidity maintenance within the storage space. A grooming aids mount provides facility for hanging items such as a toothbrush, and a compartment for storing small items such as an electric shaver is provided. The top cover provides a convex surface for shedding water and a peripheral flange for directing the water away from the stool and for shielding the ventilation holes. Slots in the peripheral flange are used for hanging washcloths and such.
