We are completely happy with these step stools.  We purchased a couple of them.  One of the things I like best about them is the fact that there is no board coming down behind the top stool.  This makes it so your entire foot can fit on the bottom step of the stool (especially if you have bigger feet) and you're not trying to balance on your toes or the side of your foot.  They look nice and they're very sturdy.
