I ordered this chair/stool on wheels because I am waiting for a hip replacement and needed help to get around in my kitchen. This stool works perfectly. I love it! In fact, once I'm back on my feet, I'll hate to give it up. It was so easy to put together and it glides smoothly and quietly on the floor. Talk about cleaning and cooking?......I'm a whiz now! It's so easy on my back. This may be an unusual use for the chair, but I'm glad I thought of it. And, in addition to it's efficiency, the color coordinates with my kitchen decor beautifully. The price can't be beat for it's usefulness. I would definitely recommend it.
