Dripex Adjustable Wooden Toddler Step Stool - Kids Kitchen Helper Tower with Safety Rail & Chalkboard - Perfect for Baking, Cooking & Sink Access - Brown

Pros:This thing does look very nice. The wood seems quality and I had zero issues with holes lining up or screws not fitting. I am happy with the craftsmanship compared to other wooden products I've bought off Amazon.The color matches our kitchen cabinets well.My toddler is already obsessed with climbing in it.Cons:The board he is meant to stand on had a split down the center possibly from drilling the holes for screws.There is no plugs for holes not in use. This is minor as it takes away from the look of it in my opinion.The screw holes for the outside of the product do not recess and they do not come with washers as it shows in my images.A single screw hole for the side stabilizing leg was not drilled completely through making it so this leg is held on by one screw vs 2.Conclusions:I would recommend this product for anyone as so far so good. If you can deal with a possible flaw in the production(screw holes not going entirely through) then really not much bad things to say about it.Great little kitchen helper still. Love that it's multipurpose - my 3yo loves using it as a "picnic table"Didn’t know this even existed lolMy daughter wanted it for my grandson’s first birthdayHe was wanting her when she was at the counter cooking - pulling on her legs,etcImmediately a hit!!I also bought him small silicon utensils and have received many a video of him helping mom in the kitchenIts very sturdy and solid material and very beautiful to look at. My babe loves being and to reach the kitchen counters and help or just see what’s going on.Downsides:There’s not enough spacing between the bottom step and top. I notice the other models have more space something to consider if getting the one with the shapes. Makes it challenging for babe to get down safely.Secondly if your child likes to climb the model with the shapes can be a bit dangerous. Turn your head for a second and your toddler will already have their foot inside one of them trying to climb up ?If these two things aren’t an issue for you I’d say go for it.Also took another reviewers advice and bought the nonslip tape as its very Slippery on its own.One of the pieces broke while assembling but still fully functional... wish it folded up. It's kinda bulky in my smaller kitchenI have a few friends are paid over $100 for this type of product and so when I purchase this when I thought it was going to be super cheaply made but it’s awesome. It’s very sturdy and I have all the confidence that my son will not fall or it break apart while he’s in it. And the chalk board is just a plus!!!Grandson loves this! Super sturdy. He can easily get up and down. Only complaint is that it is a little heavy to maneuver around my kitchen.This is a very sturdy and very stable stool for kids. My grand daughter (2 years old) has been using it and one concern was that she might tip it over, but this is even more stable than I thought. It is extremely stable and very sturdy. Assembly of the typical flat pack furniture was not difficult, but I am handy. Might be challenging for some. The paint job is also very durable so far. All around I am very happy with this product. Recommended.This kitchen safety standing tower is of high quality, a bit heavy, and very stable. The surface is coated and appears very smooth, so it can be safely used by children.We often have the grandchildren round so allowing them to have a little more independence is great, they love to help in the kitchen (particularly when baking), so this step stool works a treat.Purchased to allow my toddler a better vantage point in the kitchen as she now insists on helping in the kitchen. This is great, has adjustable levels so can suit different heights.Easy enough to assemble on my own, although DD decided that was also a team effort! Very sturdy, can also hold my weight, wouldn't recommend doing that long term.Chalk and whiteboard feature is a plus, keeps DD occupied whilst more busy in the kitchen and allows me to keep an eye on her.Easy to use for her. She nee straight away how to get on. Took a time to understand how to get off.A kitchen helper, black board and table - what more could you ask for!More robust than I thought.
