I needed the stool to help my wife get into bed after an operation. The one received seems to be of correct dimensions but the wood is acacia which varies greatly in color from light brown to blond. Stool is advertised as brown. Most pieces are glued up small sections which is not as pictured. Countersinks for screws had varying depths.Not only that, one of the leg sides which are joined at the factory with a mortise joint and staples was broken, I repaired it myself before completing assembly. If I didn't need it right away, I would have returned.
