Review on πŸͺ‘ Compact Army Green Folding Stool: Ideal for Camping, Picnic, Fishing & More by James Trapkin

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Mixed feelings about the quality

This stool needed some work to make it a little nicer. But there were a few things I couldn't fix. First, something dangles in a metal tube and rolls, making a sound as it moves. (I suspect it might have been a piece of metal when they assembled it.) I was hoping I could get what it is to my ankle as the bottom covers come off very easily (too easily!). but I wasn't able. I had to trim off the uncut plastic on my shins using scissors and an X-acto knife. These caps were so loose I glued them on with super glue. When I opened it up to attach the lower leg caps I saw another thing I couldn't fix - a lot of powdery orange stuff inside that looked like rust. Slightly barely visible on the outside of the joints. The trim is also worn in places. The stool is very, very small. This may work best as a footstool or for a child, or if you want or need to sit fairly low to the floor. (The description lists a weight and height limit that I haven't seen again - it currently lists 500 pounds if I recall, then 200 elsewhere.) Other than that, the measurements given are relatively accurate. I find the shoulder strap width oddly narrow at only about 10 inches for the weight. The long side is about 11 14/16 inches and the height is about 12 inches. I never leave negative feedback. easy. My star rating is based on the rattling part inside, loose lower leg caps, and especially the orange dusty interior (which looks like rust). The quality is lower than I expected and personally I wouldn't be comfortable exposing this exterior to the elements and possibly exacerbating the apparent rust (if I'm not targeting a 'problem' and I don't mind if it gets worse). ). For me it would probably be an indoor only stool. That being said, if these things don't bother you and the price is right, this is a comfortable and lightweight stool that's suitable for things like camping and hiking due to its small size and light weight.

Pros
  • Good thing
Cons
  • I vaguely remember
