Review on KidKraft Wooden Two-Step Children's Stool with Handles - White: Ideal Gift for Ages 3-8, Promote Independence & Safety! by Ben Cooper

Although I managed to assemble the ladder, the quality of the parts was so disappointing that I don't know how long it will last. Only two steps were fixed with screws. All risers were simply loosely connected with wooden dowels. By loose I mean the dowels were obviously smaller than they should be. When tightening, the parts barely held together. See the first pictures. The screws were some kind of soft metal and broke easily. See last picture. I had to replace it with screws from my owl toolkit. The only reason I've proceeded with the build and plan on leaving it for now is because it's the right height I need. I don't have much confidence it will last long after seeing how poorly built it is.
