Cosco 11-130WHT Chair/Step Stool, White by Cosco

Igual que la foto nada difícil de armar me gustó mucho

Had to return first one with slight deformation, but second one is fine.

I purchased this 8 months ago but waited a while to write a review so I could see how well this this would perform and I have to tell you it has proven to be a very sturdy well built chair/step stool that has held up beautifully to the rigors of everyday life with a disabled person, me. I knew when I bought this assembly would be required and thought to assign this task to my son, but, he was not available when it arrived and being the impatient person that I am I set myself to the task instead. Surprising I found it to be a fairly simple job given all of the cautionary tales in the reviews here regarding this, the instructions were clear and I did not run into any problems, it took a little time but most things do for me these days. I gave it a home in my kitchen with the job of letting me sit on it while I do the prep work for my meals, cook, eat at the table and wash the dishes. It comes through like a pro by being very sturdy, stable, with a wide seat that makes me feel secure while sitting yet light enough to be easily moved around and small enough to tuck out of the way in my less then spacious kitchen all while displaying it's retro good looks. With limited mobility and a need to take a seat quite often this chair/step stool has been a real blessing for me. The taller height of the chair makes it easier on me to go from sitting to standing and while I am standing in my kitchen the top bar on the chair back has also been very helpful during those times I need a little something to hold on to steady myself. For the price this is fantastic buy one I would happily make again. Update 2022: Still in daily use and it has held up beautifully over the years. Does it function and look as good as the day I got it?... Yes, yes it does! Rarely do I find something that is this durable for such a great price.

Assembly was not terribly difficult but you really need to follow the instructions as it can get a bit complicated. There are so many screws, and what was Really Screwed was the fact that the very last step required was to attach the side of the bottom step to the leg of the stool, and That One Screw Was Defective, which made the completion of assembly Impossible! I Have Contacted (which, btw, are Impossible to Reach By Phone & email is not much better) the manufacturer, Cosco, a few times about this Issue and One Time did receive an email stating that a package with a replacement screw was on its way. That was about a Month Ago. I sent another email 2 days ago stating I had still not received anything, but I have not heard back from them. And it appears that these screws are a bit bigger in their circumference as none of the screws I have around here fit properly! Aside from that, 2 of my cats have pointed out an issue with the seat, being slightly padded and covered with vinyl, sharp toenails on their back feet have done some damage to it. However, the A&C side of me decided to cover the seat with fabric, simply by gluing it on and, perhaps, adding a coat of Acrylic Clear Paint with Glitter... Something that will match with the colors of paint that I will be using to "Glitzerize" the plain ol' white.

Very good quality. Useful in the household. Beautiful design.
