I never thought I would want one but I want one of those tiny stools that you can sit and work on a vehicle. Who has one, do you like it, would you have gotten a different one? Some have trays, some have adjustment, some don’t have anything.

I have an adjustable hyd one with a tray at the bottom. I dont use it as much as i thought i would.

I've got one of these. I rarely use it.

So you all just sit on the ground? Would you rather have something different?

I'd like one mainly for doing brakes and washing wheels, otherwise I don't see a whole lot of need for them.

This. I keep both our daily drivers clean and every time I wash the wheels it sucks to try to sit in the ground or lean over.

Well if you wash your car in the garage then great! Put that stool on a sloped surface, like a driveway, where the rest of us wash our cars...and it takes off!

The only way to use that stool to clean my wheels would be to put the car up on jacks. Since I don't have a drain in my garage, that's not really an option.

I have a cheap one, and use it for detailing/polishing a lot. Easy to put a car on the MaxJax or the 4-post and bring it up a bit to work on the sides. Also works well under the MaxJax at full up position for undercar work. If you don't have a lift, I'd say the value of having a stool would be limited.
