I bought this for my 80 year-old mother, so she could sit while she does kitchen chores.

The stool is light-weight enough for her to move and provides a comfortable seat.

There are two drawbacks: the step part of the stool doesn't come out quite far enough, giving the feeling of instability. Also, I assumed the entire unit folded for storage, but this is not the case. Only the steps fold in.

Both of the above are minor drawbacks and I would recomend this item to anyone.

I owned a Cosco stool previous to this one which I had for many, many years. So when I was ready to purchase a new one I returned to the Cosco brand expecting to receive the same quality product I had in the past. My main disappointment is that the chair it so small it would be hard for a normal sized adult to sit on and be comfortable. Also mine arrived with a small rip in the vinyl on the seat at one of the corners. I wish they had not sacrificed size and quality for price since the older products lasted 20 years or longer.

This step stool is so great that we have 2 at my mom's house. I'm going to get one as soon as I have my own kitchen. They're really durable, both of the ones we have lasted at least 20 years, one might be closer to 40. They're nice to sit in and tall enough that I can reach the top shelves in the kitchen (I'm only 4'11")

This step stool was not very difficult to put together at all. I read some reviews prior to purchasing it, and they were correct that you have to remove the seat to screw on the back. However, I was pleasantly surprised that it wasn't that hard to do. I gave this as a gift to my friend and she absolutely loves it.

We got this for our daughter at 17 mos. We have it at our counter so she can use this chair instead of climbing up on our bar stools. She still needs to be supervised but it is alot safer and more stable than anything else we could find.

I purchased this 'newer model' step stool chair for a slight retro addition to my kitchen. With the white powder coat finish it doesn't quite look as industrial as the more typical red and yellow model which makes a softer transition for my particular application. It's not terribly comfortable (obviously not a lounge chair) but it serves it's purpose quite well. At 5'11 I couldn't see into my uppermost kitchen cabinet shelves but now it's a breeze. The chair tucks nicely under my kitchen counter alongside the trash can. I have a small kitchen with a 4 seat table and two seat bar. It's a bit high for my table use and a tad short the bar but it adds an important spare seat as I often entertain in the kitchen/dining area more than the living room. It's lightweight and super simple to assemble. If you have open undercounter space, these are a super addition to any kitchen but there's another option. I have a 50's era Cosco stool that belonged to my great aunt that I tucked in a corner and use for a plant stand. This stool could easily be used the same way. Cosco has a great dual purpose product here that can easily be used in more than only two ways. I give it 5 stars on form, function, and price.

The service and delivery of this product were excellent. However, the backrest was damaged. The plastic was coming away from the metal. It was as though there was not enough "seam" allowance. The company promptly replaced the chair twice (we now have three) and both of the replacements have exactly the same problem! We gave up.

Bought this as a gift for my mother-in-law, she saw mine and wanted one just like it. Great product; works as a chair most of the time and a sturdy step stool when needed.

The Cosco step stool was delivered as promised, in perfect conditiion, exactly as advertised. I'm very pleased with the product and the service, and would not hesitate to order from this company again.

I was pleased with the step stool. It was fairly easy to put
together. Looks nice in my kitchen.
