We use the word, Gold, in our company name to praise the golden stage of our lifetime. To senior citizens, their lives reach the golden time, with their experiences and wisdom gained from the past tens of years, so that they live in a more wise and joyful way. However, contrary to the spiritual maturity, most senior citizens are faced with the same problem of disappointedly-declining health conditions.
With the expectation of assisting senior citizens to have a comfortable life, we lanuched our first product, Ta-Da Chair, a walking stick with seat, in 2016. In a long term, we sincerely hope to provide more innovative products with people to extend the golden time of everyone’s life.
About our brand "Ta-Da®"
Have you ever had been in the following situations? You turn down all invitations, because your feet are so weary that you cannot take a long walk. Or, you want to reach mountain tops to admire magnificent views, but you feel tired and exhausted, therefore you turn back disappointedly on the half way. Or, you arrive at a shop to buy the latest products, but there are already tens of people waiting in the line, and you cannot stand more than ten minutes for queueing.
At these moments, you wish you had an amazing thing to help you cross those obstacles, just like a magician pulling a rabbit from a hat and saying “Ta-Da”. We wish to provide our Ta-Da Chair with you to fulfill your needs.
Ta-Da Chair made its debut in 2013 in the exhibitions of Inventions Geneva and the Concours Lépine. Just like the name says, Ta-Da Chair showed the breakthrough designs that it could be transformed from a walking stick into a chair in a blink and weighs only 910g, catching everyone’s eyes. These impressive multifunction cane seat received high praises and won gold medals.
About Ta-Da® Chair
The founder of Step2gold, Mr. Pao Chi-Ting, felt sad to see his mother confine her life to the neighborhood, because her weary feet could not bear long walks. She turned down many chances of visiting beautiful countryside and mountain parks, and felt frustrated, too. Mr. Pao wanted to buy a practical cane with seat, but nothing in the market could meet his demand. Then, he came up with a brand new idea and started sketching the blueprint of his ideal seat stick, which was the prototype of Ta-Da Chair.
At first, the Ta-Da Chair were designed for senior citizens, allowing them to take a rest after a long walk. However, many people showed high interests and replied with more possible usage. It seemed that Ta-Da Chair met requirements from people who walked and needed a rest at any places and any time. Therefore, we considered introducing this product to other family members, not limited to senior citizens.
Although Ta-Da Chair impressed everyone and showed a great potential, with two golden medals from well-known exhibitions, we didn’t launch it on the market immediately; we decided to step back and lay more stress on the issue of product safety. After three-year product reviews, Ta-Da Chair past many restrict reliability tests and received many patents. In 2016, Ta-Da Chair was ready on the market!
About Ta-Da® Chair Series 2
As the pioneer of walking stick seats in design and manufacturing, when this kind of versatile and innovative products are well known and gradually recognized and accepted by people, we have been repeatedly asked the following questions: Could you please come up with a sturdy one for heavy people? Could it be longer for tall people? Could we have a larger seat? Could you remake a modern one for the younger? We need an affordable one!
In the past three years, we collected all the comments from customers and tried to put ourselves in their shoes, in order to figure out a right direction for product improvement. After numerous designs, modifications, tests and verifications, we innovated a brand-new cane seat, Ta-Da Chair Series 2, with 20% higher in weight capbility, longer lengthes in selection, 15% larger in seat surface, more stylish appearance and good value for your money.

It is perfectly suitable for every outdoor activities such as hiking, trekking, fishing, camping and so on. We expect that this product could bring higher value to every outdoor lover.
