I was unsure about this, what I really wanted was a “kitchen helper” but once we received it and out it together I think it’s better than a kitchen helper because it’s lights so easier to move around and gives my kid more freedom to go up and down. 
He loves to look out the window while standing on this and it’s prefect height! 
It is narrow but the top step is still wide enough for him to step around. 
 Happy we went with this for the price. It doesn’t look so bulky in our home either!
