What a sturdy  stool this is. Seeing another review by a woman mentioning that her husband put this together in 10-15 minutes without getting mad, I knew I could order this step stool! My husband said he put it together in 5 minutes tops and that it went together without even looking at the instructions. He was shocked and pleased. The only thing we didn’t like was that the top step had some yellow discoloring on it. It is much bigger than I expected, but I failed to look at the description. It is perfect for both big people and little people to use.
