Do the lower steps flip under the stool when not being used as a step stool? Meaning, is it a folding stool?

Yes the bottom two steps flip under the stool to allow less storage space. I does not fold completely flat like a step ladder. I hope that helps

yes, you lift the front 2 steps and they fit under the stool. I love this feature and this is how it sits in my kitchen.

Yes, the steps do flip under the stool BUT not all the way which makes it awkward to place against a wall. I cannot recommend this step stool to anyone. It is not quality and definitely not worth the money!

Yes, the steps fold up into the center of the stool. I also find it to be of high quality.

Unfortunately no. The unit is designed to twist as you step up and down. The twist is gentle however, and once you get into it not noticeable.

The lowest part of each leg is a separate piece (joins just below the circular foot bar) and you either use the long pieces or the shorter ones. The stools are not instantly adjustable like those that have hydrolic lever or anything like that. It is more a decision to make when you are assembling the stools. I have them set for the shorter setting. We love these and get many compliments! They swivel well. I will say they were a little hard to assemble (and usually I'm good at that stuff) and the screws under the seat have to be tightened every so often or some may fall out. I don't mind. These were a very good purchase especially considering the low cost.

It has a metal piece that drops down to keep it open. To close it you turn the stool upside down so the metal piece goes back in place allowing it to be folded again. I love this stool and take it everywhere with me! It fits perfectly in my purse.

We also have a narrow staircase and bought this mattress because of it. The mattress will fold (bend) but it's very heavy. I don't believe you would have a problem getting it back down the staircase once it is to it's full-size. We've had this mattress for about nine months now and it is by far the best mattress I have ever had. It retains its shape, hasn't broken down, and is very supportive.

I turn it around backwards and sit on it w/ my feet on the floor. It is a comfortable height. I don't think you could sit on the bottom step. It is recessed halfway under the top step.

Hi! I have not actually used the stool because I felt it was too heavy for my needs and I planned to return it. However, I did originally buy it because it looked sturdy and had a nice wide step. It appears to be well made and very sturdy.Sorry I am not of more help.

You should not regret the purchase as it should work quite nicely for you! I know our stool gets used often and never even has been folded! Best Wishes!

Yes the chair I purchased has the stairs that go completely under and lock into place when pulled back out. There are no latches or anything, you just lift and put under and then just pull it out when needed. It's been a great stool.

It can sometimes be tricky. Be sure to colapse all the legs before closing the stool. You need to depress a button on the leg to collapse it...once the legs are closed , it's hard to reach the button. It doesn't sound like a defective stool.

When the bottom step is folded in there is no step to stand on there. The bottom step fold up and in by rotating at the main frame. The front leg on step is pulled toward the front and up and ends upside down when pulled into the body. stores away nicely. this is a good quality step stool for the kids or grandkids (as in our case).

It does fold but it wasn't meant for continuos fold/unfold use, when opened it snaps into place behind the top stair to secure and become stable, I would imagine after doing that several times the latches would lose their firmness because they are hard plastic tabs, just the same this is a win/win buy.

No. The only part that folds are the steps. They push back and up out of the way. The rest of the chair remains a chair

No. I flips under. It is not flat on the ground. It sort of has an incline.

Correct. The leg, without the floor guards in the picture, folds under to yield an incline or decline bench. Mine has a carrying handle vice a strap so that it can be moved easily.

They do. Neither piece is heavy and the stool is quite light (pretty cheaply made) but both fold with relative ease.

I do not remember. I returned it... I don't remember why either. I'm pretty sure I felt like it wasn't sturdy enough. I actually always use my sons baby bjorn step stool. Not quite high enough, but it's sturdy and gets me up enough to climb onto my kitchen counters (where I needed it for).
