These are ok, but it's hard to find a way to open them without pinching your fingers somewhere, and my 3 year old, for whom they're intended, has pinched her fingers a few times. I'm also not positive that I would feel confident in the 200lb. capacity. I'm about 135 lbs and when I use these to reach the higher shelves in my cabinets, I don't feel as secure as I would like.
