How many inches is the top of the step and is this stool self-supported (ex. could it also be used for a counter, etc.)? Thanks

If you turned it around, the stool could be used at a counter, as one side is curved to fit against a toilet. We've used it at the sink turned around. The step is 8" tall, 16" wide inside the handles, and 11" deep in the center (the shallowest part of the curve).

Step is 8 in. Yeah you don't have to attach it to anything or even use the handles. It is kinda heavy, Humm if you turn it around it could work for :)

Maybe about a foot tall..? The handles though are about thigh high on me. It couldn't really be used for the counter because there is an indent to go around a toilet

Yes it's 8" from floor to step and also, like others answered, you don't have to attach the rails and you could turn it around to use at a counter. I personally wouldn't use it for that since there are much better step stools for counter use and if your bathroom isn't rather large this potty stool will take up a lot of room (even without the rails). It wouldn't matter though if the bathroom was only used by your little one. My teenage son strongly dislikes the potty stool being "in the way". It is, however, a great product and probably the safest I have found.

Yes the stool is self supported and could be used as a stepping stool, maybe more for a young child. Its about 8 inches off of the floor. Perfect size step for a toddler to sit down on top of potty stool.

15" wide by 11" deep and 8" high. It is self supporting. Can not be used for a counter because there is a U shape cutout so the stool can fit around the toilet.

I would not step on top step as it could be dangerous. It is very sturdy and well made not cheap.... not sure what the weight limit is buy my hubby is 170 range and he has used it. Hope this helps you.

The top step is 15.5 inches by 10 inches. I love my stool, use it everywhere. Solid, nice height to reach top shelves in kitchen cabinets.

when the stool is in use it is 12 inches high and 13.5 inches across the top that you stand on. it is a nice, sturdy little stool.

Hello ~ I just doublechecked and at its lowest the stool measures 13". Easily adjustable, lightweight and sturdy. It's perfect for the shower or tub. Or as an extra stool to reach higher cabinets. Hope this was helpful.

Hi Patti, I'd like to believe that this stoll would be more than enough for her. I honestly believe that my situation was a fluke. I actually still use my stool nearly every day. I believe this stool will prove to be fine for your needs. The step and platform are fairly strong and should give her comfortable support.

I have no idea why one person said it is not for standing on, you absolutely can stand on it. It locks in place and is meant for standing. It's a "3 step" stool. Not two steps and a paint tray.

I am 5ft. 5in. tall and i use the padded ankle rest to climb up. I straddle the foothold backing up to the seat, grab onto the frame and use the padded ankle rest to push up on. Works for me. Because the frame is so widespread i would think a step stool might not be the safest option for individuals who are a little unstable or weak. It could be a long way down to the floor in the event of a fall.

It is counter height. I bought and it I very useful as a caf type table. Use the stools or stand up around and cut veggies its a very good table

The height to the top of the seat is 33". Our counter is 45" high and we have plenty of height to set and be comfortable. Really like the stools. Only down side is they are heavy to pull out.

I measured the height from the floor to the seat of the chair at 22 inches at its tallest adjustment. We LOVE this chair - it is comfortable and supportive for my husband's back - but we normally use it at desk level. I'm not sure that it will be the best choice for a counter workspace.

It is about 13" tall. It is just over the top of the ruler I put behind it to measure the step (not the top of the side). We LOVE this stool to get the kids up and down off their beds. We have two and would tell you to get it and love it like we do! :)

I am not good with measurements without a tape measurer but what I can say is thai it does take you up a litter further than standard. I use it to get in and out of bed since I have a very high bed. Depending on what your need is this is a good step stool.

Yes and yes. We bought the taller stool for use at my mother's house and it was fine for that height. We have the lower stools for use at at standard kitchen counter height.

total height is 16 inches. The first step is 8 inches from the floor,the top step is 16 inches high. I hesitated in buying a plastic step stool,as i thought that i needed something more stable,but this thing is perfect. My wife is pretty messed up,and needs two knee replacements,although she is not old. She is real happy with this.it will not ever slip.

Whether fully opened and ready to step up on the stool, or folded ready to store out of the way,it is 34 inches at the very top of the handle. The house I recently moved into is small but I have used this step stool every day to reach high cabinets and closets. HJpe it works for you.

I have stood on this stool as a step up to easier access a high top bed. I weigh 340 lbs and the stool supports me very well. It is very well made.
