[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 488743, member: 1963"] I got my late husband a wheeled barstool that he could scoot around the kitchen. I found it in a Dumpster actually, so have no idea who made. Now, Janet, you are a larger woman with mobility issues that affect both your upper and lower torso. The stool we had had a foot bar on it but no arms or back. husband had good upper body strength and was a small man. I don't think he ever weighed more than 150 lbs. He used to pull and scooch the scooter around with his one "better" leg and it worked fine for him For you, I think the "pub style" barstool with the wide seat and arms would be a lot more comfortable and safer for you to use. I can tell you that it gave husband a lot of his life back. He'd been a chef before he became ill and it was depressing as hell for him not being able to get in the kitchen and work his magic. The two things that went the furthest for him keeping active and out and around were the used mobility scooter I got for him and an old barstool I pulled out of someone's trash [/QUOTE]
