Sturdy Stool
by Ann in Ohio
Ordered this stool for a coastal look. Is sturdy. The painted wood sections are actually more distressed than I'd expected from the photo. It's actually made in China and a sticker on underside warns of cancer and reproductive harm. Evidently it's due to the paint used? Not disclosed in stool description. That was disturbing. Finally, the packaging was an issue for me. It arrived in a large box to fit stool, filled with those dreaded packing "peanuts." Will not return the stool since it's useful but will be careful in what I order in the future from this company.
AWE: Hi Ann, There's no need to dread our packing peanuts! They are biodegradable (just add water and they will dissolve). They are made from corn and potato starch and are actually food grade (although we would discourage anyone from eating them ;)
