Customer Reviews for AmeriHome 1-Step Aluminum Step Stool with 225 lbs. Load Capacity Type II Duty Rating

The first thing I noticed about the stool is the color. It is not the bright green as shown in the advertisement. It is more of a faded mint green. The stool folds easy as seen in photo to stow away. It has little knobs on the hinges to help lock/unlock when opening or folding. The top platform is only about 6.5 inches wide, so an adult foot will hang off the front and back edge. it is only about as wide as two adult feet. You can see in photo the stool is a little smaller than a box of cat litter. As a large guy I do not feel very secure standing on it even though it is rated to 330lbs. I think this would be a great stool for children. As for adult use, I think I will be returning the product for a larger more stable stool. Pros: 1. small folds up easily 2. great for children Cons: 1. faded color, not what is represented in advertisement 2. platform small for adult feet and not the most stable

Plastic washer between legs and bracket is broken and loose. Contacted Home Depot immediately to replace. Also does not fold up as compact as expected

The step stool is made up of excellent quality material, which make it look and feel premium. Its pretty lightweight but still feels sturdy. The maximum weight capacity is 225lb, which makes it good for most of the people. Definitely a must have if you are looking for a small step stool and have wooden interiors.

Its stronger than it looks

Great for sitting and standing on them. Love how light they are. Like the different colors

We just took these out of the package and were trying to use them this morning. The treads on the bottom of the legs are hard plastic. They look like textured rubber, but aren't. The result is that they are VERY slippery on hard wood or linoleum. We found this out because it just slipped from under my wife and she fell in the kitchen. We thought she had broken her arm, but it is probably ok.

these step stools are "ok" (notice I did not capitalize ok). they are smaller than I expected, not sure what went wrong there. I will keep them and they will get used. they seem sturdy enough but are just small for what I wanted.

Love them, I have four

Just the right size super strong and you can lay a walk board over the top

Convenient ,compact easy to store and very sturdy

These folding stools are a great value for the money. Easy to fold up and use them frequently for reaching items just out of reach.

The stepstool as I call it It’s very functional, light to carry and very compact. I actually bought three. One for the house, one for my work truck, and a back up. I just love them.

These are very convenient for quick jobs around the house. I have a couple indoor security cameras and recessed lights in my home. These make it easy to adjust the cameras angles and change bulbs without having to get a bigger ladder from the garage or stand on a chair.

They work. Recommended. A little strength is required to open and close.

Great product! Perfect size to leave on the kitchen

Has nice finish and support the current project just right.

No I had to buy skid proof tape to put on the bottom of the legs.

It was good

light weight, nice color

This was the worst step ladder/stool I have ever purchased. Sent it right back. Don't waste your time or money.

Great little step ladder. It's the perfect size for what I needed. I'ts very strong and folds up and stores just about anywhere.

Very handy to keep in the kitchen to reach top shelves. Very sturdy and reliable .

Light weight and durable..

The legs of this ladder have no grip on the floor. It seems sturdy and looks nice and it might be okay if you use it on carpet, but it slips and slides over hardwood and would cause a terrible accident. One of the other reviewers said it has rubber on the feet. This is not true. It does not have rubber on the feet. It looks like it does in the photo and they show another photo of a woman standing on it on a hardwood floor. It should have rubber or some kind of anti slip surface on the bottom of the legs, then it would be great, but it does not and would be very dangerous to stand on as it would slip easily and lead to a fall. These photos and reviews are very deceptive and I feel aggravated that I wasted my time ordering and waiting for this to come in and picking it up and now I have to return it to the store. What a pain. If you have hardwood floors do not waste your time with this product unless you have carpeting.

I wanted to hang pictures in my stairwell without having to use an adjustable ladder. The slim step stool *just* fits on the stair tread. Worked great!

Great step ladder, super light (I can lift it w one hand) and pretty! I needed something that fits in my kitchen w/o being bulky or ugly. Only problem is that the plastic on the top step edge already cracked. Not sure if it was in transit or not but it doesn't seem to have impacted the integrity.

It is soooo light, very easy to use. It is little higher then my previous one (for it is better), first step not wide, second step comfortable and so good toll handle.

It is sturdy, easy to use, stable and meets my needs for standing higher safely with knees against a stable bar. It also looks great!
