3 out of 5 stars Good, but tips easily and is a safety hazard   December 20, 2008
tbgee (usa)
I registered for this stool when pregnant, thinking it would be a nice position-helper while breast feeding, and it is, with one drawback: it tips easily if you put any weight on the edges (top edge or either side). So far, this hasn't been a huge problem, except for making a loud THUMP every time I do it, which sometimes startles the baby. I would just suggest that you avoid ever using it as an actual stool and never step or stand on it, and keep any little kiddos away from it too. br / br /Other than the potentially dangerous tipping thing, it is a nice wood piece and went together very easily. As stated before, I would not use it in place of a safer flat stool, but it would be absolutely great under a desk to prop up your feet while working.


5 out of 5 stars A must for nursing moms   December 15, 2008
fab shopper (Florida)
This stool is awesome! I used it daily while I was nursing my son. It really helps and is a "must" for nursing moms along with your boppy or other baby proper. It takes the stress off your back and legs and really puts your feet in the perfect place so that your whole body is comfortably aligned. IT really helped me get through those long days of nursing a young infant and beyond. I loved it so much that I have given it as a gift at baby showers.


5 out of 5 stars Good for nursing and far beyond   September 19, 2008
P. Hillemann (Northfield, MN USA)
For years after I no longer needed it as a nursing stool, I have used this stool to rest my feet on while working at my computer. This allowed me to raise the height of my chair to reduce neck strain when my monitor was a little too high for comfort. The angle reduces strain on the back and makes the whole setup so comfortable. Terrific product.


4 out of 5 stars DOES THE JOB, ONE MINOR ITEM - SEE BELOW:   July 11, 2008
JoelNale (North Bergen, NJ)
Our baby was in NICU for about a week. These Medela nursing stools were everywhere and for good reason - it was crucial in helping ensure my wife nursed well and without pain. Here are my findings: br / br /PROS: br /1. Promotes proper back posture. This simple item helped her maintain good back posture when breast feeding. br /2. Sturdy. This item will last a long time br /3. Stable. The rubber footings ensure a secure grip br / br /CONS: br /1. My only gripe is the wood is so hard that it was somewhat difficult to screw the screws in properly. br / br /JOEL'S RECOMMENDATION: br /Invest the money for this item. Also recommended is a Boppy pillow. Do not let my "con" listed above deter you. Just be patient and use a bit of strength and the screws will seat themselves just fine.

Love this product. It raises my legs to the perfect height - use it with my rocking chair even when I'm not nursing.
