How high does it sit off the ground? I've heard reviews talking about how low it is to the ground. Also, is it stable or do they topple easily?

It is lower to the ground than a regular chair, and if you are really tall it may feel kind of strange, but not really awkward. As far as stability, they are very stable unless you are on sandy or uneven ground. We always try to find bark or flat stones to put under the legs in that case. I love my chair. I will not backpack without it.

I have never had my topple over, so I am am thinking you might not be locking the folding legs in place on the main tube thats slides up and down there is a quick release in the back and if it is not tight the stand will topple over. The quick release is also adjustable and needes to be tight one other thing make sure the foldinging legs are all the way down ( Collar on Main tube is as low as it can go and locked).

Absolutely NOT stable on its own. Tiny gust of wind will knock it over. It needs to be secured to the ground. It is top heavy.

It is very stable. When you look closely at the picture you will see that the hand rests are centered on the foot rests but the foot rests are much longer. Even if a person put their hands on the very front of the hand rests the center of gravity is far behind the front of the foot rest. My wife was quite weak and had no issues getting up. As she became stronger it worked just as well and she never had an issue with tipping forward. I also used it and found it to be very stable. My wife no longer needs this stand but we have kept it as she may in the future. I consider it a very sound purchase. It is very stable.

I have a 60 pound HDTV sitting on it right now with no problem. No way it would topple, since the center of gravity is on the disc itself, it should be more stable.

its fairly stable. we use it to play games and have drinks and haven't spilled yet. i guess you couldn't lean on it but its stable.

It's pretty stable, but they can tip it. I don't think that ever happened with my grandson, though. He LOVED it and got lots of enjoyment out of it.

The stools are very light but I have never had them fall over. Stools are very comfortable. I am very happy with them. Assembly os just putting the bottom on. Takes maybe 5 minutes. Not sure how high they adjust, I have them at our counter. Hope this helps! I would buy them again!

only 2 to 4 inches off the ground. It's more a balance toy than one that puts you up in the air.

Mine is about 20 feet off the ground so can't help you! It's adequate at that height, but I wish it were higher.

We have several of these and have not had any issues with them. They are very stable and easy to use.

I have no problems with it being stable. It doesn't tip(unless all your weight is on one edge). Or bounce/shift under you. And I have balance and depth perception issues! So I think you'll be safe.

My wife tells me no, it's not stable. It does not let it rest up against the bottom so it's wobbly.

Sorry for the delay. It is fairly low to the ground, maybe 3-4 inches. I returned the product as not sturdy, and very small. Dogs were leery of it.

It does sit low to the ground. Between 6 to 8 inches of the ground to be exact. I bought two chairs to keep in the saddle bag of my motorcycle so that my wife and I would have chairs in the event no other seating exists. If you are looking for something that sits as high as a regular chair then this is not for you. BTW, I absolutely love my chairs!

It's really not that high off the ground, maybe 2-3 inches. I returned mine because it was shattered when it was delivered and I was not happy with the product at all.

I have not had any stability issues with it at all and I use it a lot. It's a good buy....worth the money.
