Is the base of the stool at all sharp? I see the rubber "toes" near the bottom, but I'm curious about the actual under side of the stool.

The entire bottom is covered by a thin layer of that black rubber so there are no sharp edges.

The whole rim of the bottom has a small rubber strip. But part of my rubber strip is coming off. Not a bad buy for the price but I think I like my other stools better.

If you turn the stool upside down, you will see plastic pieces that are raised. On the one we bought, they are not noticeably sharp. We have a very exploratory toddler and there has been no problems or cuts resulting from the stool. There is rubber around the entire base. It is a very nice stool. I would buy it again. Hope this helps.

Yes, there is a black metal plate that is bolted to the center of the back and goes about 3" up. I can live with that but what is bothersome to me is that when the sides of the stools swivel and hit our quartz countertop, we get noticeable dings. I just keep covering them up with stain.

I agree with the other answer. Base is heavier than it looks, and wide enough for stability, but the stool remains light enough to pick up and move easily. I am small and find the stool very comfortable, but even my 6'2" son says he has never had any problem with the stool.

The rubber coverings on the feet and top are quite non slip. A very sturdy step stool. I wish it was a bit wider though. Also, it's pretty low to the ground. I guess i don't know if it's what you would want for shower use, but I think it's safe and will last a long time.

It has not been an issue at all for me. The bottom edges--where the goods pour out--are not rounded, but neither are they what I would consider sharp. Hope this helps!

Hello, the two stools I ordered were better than I expected. Very robust in structure and no crack in the wood. I am totally satisfied with mine.

One of the reviews suggested that the footrest rungs were too low, and being that I'm only 5.2, I was concerned as well. I was happy to discover that the higher rungs worK just fine for a shortie like me ;). I'm not home right now so I can't measure, but they're probably 7-8 inches from the floor. They are comfortable stools, no problem at all. Good luck!

Hello, I just did a trial run by scooting around my tiled kitchen floor on this stool -> it left no marks and moved easily. The casters are plastic so there aren't the black marks rubber leaves. Also, the casters can be changed using any of the many caster sets available at a good hardware store.Also, I love this stool. It's stable both for me and my 4 year old. Never has tipped even with him wobbling all over it!

This item comes together; the vanity and the chair within the price. I'm not sure what you mean by stool! But if you asking about the chair; it is practical and you can push it under the vanity. It is a decent size for an adult.

yes , these stools adjust high and low ...although we have them at their lowest height as they are at our counter height island ....have had them about 10 months now and i LOVE them . They have held up well and i ordered one more after the 1st 3 were delivered . Everyone who enters our house ...always comments on how cool they look and how they like them. My husband took a hack saw to the metal piece the seat is attached to as we put them on the lowest setting and they can go quite high. at the lowest we didn't like the metal middle piece being there so we took off the bottom 4 inches or so ...LOOKS AMAZING AND TOOK HIM ABOUT 5 MINS !! Great deal on these stools !!

The table top is durable for us. My problem with this set is the stools...after not too long they are coming apart underneath so people get splinters when they grab to pull them up. I've been meaning to contact the supplier about this but haven't had a chance, but I think you should know.

Yes, it is. Ours is very smooth to open. There is a latch on the back of the top cushioned step that locks the stool in place when open. When ready to close, just lift up on the latch, push the back bottom rung with your foot and it closes smoothly and easily.

The stool is very sturdy and larger than you would imagine. The legs are about 12" apart at the foot.

hi Jennifer, the bar stool your looking at is adjustable. So if your looking for a real tall seat or a real low seat its perfect!!!! I bought three of them and everybody compliments me on them. you have to climb up on them to sit in them when there all the way up. I Love them. had the round bottom base powder coated nap black, goes perfect with the seat . Hope this helps ! Enjoy : )

The wheels are a very decent plastic. I'm using them on wood, though maybe not as fancy as yours. No problem. Love the stool.

Each leg has a hard plastic/nylon, button-like slider or bumper on the bottom. The wood of the stool's leg would not touch the floor. Would those bumpers mar a wood floor? Maybe. The pads are not wide, about 1/2 or so. The stools are light and sliding them around to reposition shouldn't hurt the floor. Sliding around while sitting in them might mar the floor, but this is difficult to do with a backless stool. You have to stand and take your weight off the stool to reposition it, much like you will have to do if you use a carpet. For light/normal use I don't think a rug is necessary. Another option would be to buy wider bumpers at the hardware store. I have hardwood throughout the house without any rugs. I put nylon bumpers on any furniture (dining room chairs for example) that get pushed back and forth under a table and there is no marring of the floor.

I agree! I thought it would be taller than a single step stool, but they are the same height. Will measure it later for exact height, it works fine for toilet access for my toddler, but wanted it for the sink and was disappointed when it was the same height as my existing single step stool.
