      I love this stool. Folds up nicely to fit in between my fridge and counter. Feels sturdy, although the steps are narrow. it still feels safe. It’s not as tall as I would have liked it to be, I’m 5’4 and I can barely reach the top of my kitchen cabinets when standing in my tip toes. But over all it’s a great step stool and I’m happy with this buy.

      Really like the Gorilla Ladders 2-Step Compact Steel Step Stool, 225 Ibs. Load Capacity Type II Duty Rating (8ft. Reach Height) because it holds the weight. It is made of steel which feels very sturdy.

      Well made, very lightweight ladder. While I also have the 19 foot Gorilla ladder for extreme heights, we bought this 2-step one so my wife could reach the top shelves of our kitchen cabinets. It is short enough that it fits easily under our kitchen island (see photo).

      The steps are too narrow, it was scary to stand on. Sadly, I had to return it.

        Perfect height and width for reaching even your highest kitchen cabinet shelves and then storing in the smallest narrowest cubby holes. Very sturdy as well.

        After over 20 years our last step ladder finally broke, we will miss it but this ladder is what we picked to replace it. We like how it folds almost flat for storage, but easy to open and close. Step feel steady under our feet and the upper bar gives you a sense of steadiness. We have already used it several time and I am close to it’s maxim weight limit. No problems here!

        This has been an excellent addition to the household. I've used it various times in/around the kitchen (where it's kept) as well as other areas that require a small footprint height increase. I always feel very stable on it, and have enough room to stand securely. For me, it colapses very slim and fits between our fridge and cabinet right under a small counter overhang. I couldn't be happier with this product and the price paid for it.

          I initially got this ladder so my granddaughter could cook with me. It was helpful for a 3 year old to feel secure standing on it to reach the counter top and roll out cookies, because of the bar over the last step for support. Then we had a company do a renovation of our kitchen and it really came in handy. The workers used it and I used it. I feel safe on it with that bar (age 67). It collapses easily by pressing the button on the top step. I like the rubber tipped legs protecting my floors. My husband could not figure out how to close it but then got the hang of it. I have had it 6 months. I would get it again.

            Great compact step stool. Sturdy and compact. Got it 2 weeks ago and have used it nearly everyday since. Very light, can be carried easily with 1 hand. Wish the steps had a thin soft rubber coat to prevent slipping. I use it in my closet. I am barely 5 ft and can barely reach items hanging on upper rack but not on the top shelf. Fits perfectly in my closet and now I can reach everything.

            Super Thin 2--Step Stool
            This Gorilla 2-Step Compact Steel Step ladder is a must have in every home. It is very light and super thin so it will fit in the coat closet or between the fridge and the wall. The dimensions are as follows: The top stop is 18" high, the folded height is 32" and the folded depth is 2". The bottom step is5.5" deep and 13" long with the top step being 8.5" deep and 13" long. Extremely comfortable to use while being very light weight to move. One small reminder is that it does have a safety bar, which if your not careful you could hit your shins on. Its a nice safety feature to keep you from stepping off the front of the ladder. All in all a very well made product that is safer than using a chair (or anything else) when your need that extra inch or two to reach something.

            Does the job!
            I got this stool for my daughter. She is a college student and her bed is high so she has lots of storage underneath. The only problem is she can't get into her bed. The 2 step, step stool does the trick! The stool folds very thin for storage. There is a safety lock built in to the design so it won't close prematurely. My daughter highly recommends this product!

            Very well balanced step stool. Feels solid.
            Made of steel. A little heavy compared to fiberglass.

            great step ladder
            I have a collection of step ladders since I'm only five feet tall.I find it convenient to have multiple ones in places where I have to reach up high like my closets and pantry. This Gorilla ladder is so easy to use. I can even open and close with one hand. It's light weight yet extremely sturdy and takes up very little room. I feel safe when climbing with this step ladder

            Sturdy Step Stool
            I was very impressed with the quality and workmanship of this step stool. This is not your run of the mill cheap step stool that you would buy at the discount store. This step stool is very well made of tubular steel and the 2 steps are very well made. It can also lay flat. It uses only 2-1/4in. storage depth and supports up to 225 pounds.. Has a special hook release that locks the stool in the open position. Has a lifetime warranty.

            Small step ladder - folds up tiny
            Not all step ladders are made the same. I have been on ladders that have twisted as I worked on things above my head. The 2-stair gorilla ladder is a nicely constructed solution. It folds flat, about 1.25" deep. And 2' tall. The stairs are all sheet metal. The only plastic is found on s hand hold on the top stair and the feet are a rubberized plastic and don't slide on slick concrete. One minor annoyance is that glue is used to hold the product description to the top stair. And sadly it's very difficult to get off the stair. Overall this is replacing a rickety step ladder and I couldn't be happier

            The step stool was perfect for my closet. Easy to unfold and easy to put away. Folds up nice and it’s the right height.
