The stool is intended for our son as a desk chair. He was constructed Ruck Zuck. Child's play !!!! On the stool, it can be great to sit for extended periods of time. Other children who come to visit sit down immediately on the stool. Also for us as an adult it's a comfortable seating. He also disappears super under the desk and takes up so little space in the nursery. This stool is highly recommended. I give this 5 stars stool.
