well designed stool with flaws......
After my recent knee surgery, I realized it would be difficult to get into my very high bed. This stool seemed just the thing---totally sturdy, with a handle to keep me steady. The only disappointments are that the finish, though tough, is a funny looking, gnarled, splatter design (instead of the plain stainless or silver colored metal I was expecting). I'm very conscious of design in my house, but the need was great, the stool was sturdy--so I decided to keep it. Now my complaint with it is that the rubber matting that you step onto has loosened completely, and I realize this could pose a danger. Today I'll buy some Gorilla Glue or heavy duty rubber cement to glue down the liner mat. This was not cheap and was a medical item--so I didn't expect these flaws. However, in my recovery I need the danged thing, so I'm keeping it.
