Cramer Kik Step Steel Step Stool - Two Step, Holds 350 lbs, Rolling Stool with Wheels, Non-Slip Surface, Black

Stool is lightweight yet absolutely sturdy. Arrived in a surprisingly durable cardboard box, and was very easy to assemble. I chose the orange, and it is bright and visible without being safety-neon. Casters work perfectly. It glides across the floor with the tap of a foot, and when you step on it, it becomes perfectly planted. The consumer products market is cluttered with cheap garbage, but this company is building the real deal.

I am 5' 4" so I am frequently frustrated when trying to reach items from top shelves in my kitchen cabinets. I do have a good step ladder that gets me up there but it is a pain to push/lift around the room so I only use it for big cleaning & re-organizing projects. Then I saw this "kick stool" on a website. WOW! Exactly what I needed. The spring-mounted/wheeled bottom allows it to be "kicked" into place, gliding across easily. When it is in the target spot, you step on it. That's it. The spring-mount is disabled by weight and makes it super stable. Best of all, you just step off and it goes back to gliding. This model is very nicely made (the beige/black combo is exactly the same as other items in my kitchen). Now I'm thinking of getting more of them for my bathrooms.

Still the same high quality these stools were when I was young, yet with lighter material. Parents had a kick-stool shaped the same back in the 1980s and this one works even better. Wheels have an easy roll. Light weight for picking up to carry. Well constructed. Assembly required when arrives in smaller box. Instructions easy to follow. Perfect height for sitting (about 2" lower than a metal folding chair). Safe for kids: my grandchild of 17 months used it like a walker to toddle around the house with ease. There is a 'bumper' edge at the very bottom and a black rubberish 'strip' that lines up with the toe holes under kitchen counters to keep it from being scratched up or damaging the kitchen wooden under counter cabinets. Grooves on top are not deep, thus keep shoes from slipping but also makes it easy to wipe of dirt or spills. After four months of daily use, I am VERY pleased with this rolling step stool. FYI: the rolling gap height when no weight is pressing the unit down is just under 1/2", thus, not good for shag carpet. Rolls fine, but not as far or as quickly, on a thin plush or low pile carpet.

In the world of great useful inventions, the cramer kik step ranks high. I've just purchased my second one. I bought the first one probably about 6 years ago and use it almost daily. It hasn't worn out, rusted, dented or become any less useful than it was the day I bought it. I decided that I needed one to keep downstairs as well. True, I could cart it up and down as needed but I need it in both places so frequently that it just seemed time to purchase another. And I got a great price on a "used" amazon warehouse deal. There is nothing at all used about the item I received. It is a clean and dent free beautiful silver stool that will fit in perfectly in my home based photo studio. Aside from being effortless to use and incredibly sturdy, this stool is also pretty darn good looking. I bought the copper color originally and it fits in really nicely in my copper, brown and rust kitchen. There is nothing ugly about this stool. Granted it wont fit in well with some decors, but not because it is unattractive. The folks at cramer saw a need to go beyond the library drab stool and infuse this with some great colors for home use. One last important point.... I am a shrinking 5' 7" (probably down to 5' 6" or less by now) and I can easily reach my 8' ceiling when standing on this stool. And I never feel even slightly unsteadly on it. Just roll it to wherever you need it and then when you step on it the thing anchors itself until you step off. I understand that if you weigh less than 30 pounds it wont anchor successfully but I am guessing that if you weigh less than 30 pounds you aren't doing the sort of home maintenance this thing was designed for. BOTTOM LINE: Best in class step stool. Incredibly well thought out and rock solid. Highly recommend

This is the second one I’ve ordered for my mom! I bought my first one several years ago and I use it frequently. I absolutely love this library stool. It moves easily but stays in place when stepped in or sat on. I use it to sit on to do a lot of chores where it’s more difficult to stoop, I heartily recommend this library stool for its ease to move it, it stays where you want it with weight on it and it is very sturdy.

"Library stools" like this are really built to last and are pretty safe to use. I have seen big and tall men climb on these to change a light bulb and it handled their weight without issue. This brand is the best IMO. I bought this to use in master bedroom closet in order to reach the shelf above the clothing bar. I can roll it with my foot to where I need to be and then step on the lower level so the stool stays in place before stepping to the top to reach up to the shelf. I have often used this type of stool on hardwood floors and low pile carpet in libraries. My bedroom is carpeted with a low shag and the stool rolls just fine on it as well. Now that I am over 65, it is important to avoid any falls -- This stool is stable and solid and makes me feel safer when I need to step higher. It is much safer than any folding stepstool and though the folding one could be perhaps placed more out of the way. I do not feel this stool is "in the way." I like the red color because it is easy to see in the closet. The price I paid on Amazon was very reasonable especially considering I think this stool will last for at least a couple generations of family usage. (I don't expect it to be left in a wet area and it shouldn't rust unless it is in wetness.) Highly recommend. A+ for ease of use, safety & sturdiness.

This is a case where buying the name brand is worthwhile. Kick stools were a common sight in the school library when I was a kid. This kind would glide easily over carpet or hard floors, and could be easily kicked into position or out of the way, but as soon as you stepped on it, it became a stable solid platform. Recently I needed something for the kitchen and I decided to buy this model. It's strong but fairly light, and rolls easily just like the ones in the library. Assembly is very simple, but does require a little strength to get the legs into the correct position. Once assembled it stays together well.

This is an easily movable step stool that still grips the floor when stepping on it. I like the height and shape. It also serves me as a seat and footstool. It's sturdy and strong.

Après plusieurs années d'utilisation : excellente qualité ! Aucun problème, pas la moindre déterrioration.

Really useful for getting to that high shelf in the kitchen

I love the lock system. It always feels sturdy and safe. I love that it rolls easily and has bumpers to protect anything it bumps into. Great for my kitchen. Takes up less space than my folding step stool and I don’t have to be constantly folding and unfolding. Love it.

It’s light and rolls easily to where you need it. Yet It’s incredibly strong and safe.

This step stool is amazing. I needed a new one after 40 years with my old one. This is exactly the same and looks great. I am delighted.
