This height is perfect. I’m 240 lbs and 5’8 and it holds me just fine. The 18 inch height makes it much nicer on my knees when i stand. My truck is 4x4 and has a leveling kit so it's not real tall.

I use this still for chores that require a sitting position like cleaning cat boxes or cleaning refrigerator. My 3 yo granddaughter has it all figured out too!

Stool was very stiff and difficult to fold without pinching your fingers. Within the first 10 uses, one of the bottom connected pegs popped out and broke. Was only used to reach the top of my jeep to strap a canoe.

Use with caution. Stool is now unusable and has been put in the trash. Ultimately, i am unsatisfied.
