My elderly father was using the garden cart, which is marketed for elderly persons. He was sitting on the seat doing his gardening, as the cart was intended to be used, when the cart tipped backwards. My father fell and hit his head on the cement driveway. I contacted the manufacturer and was told "if you push or tip your weight backwards you can in fact tip over." My father has balance issues, thus the need for the cart. The product is not safe for senior citizens and should not be marketed as an aid for the elderly. As an aside, reading the reviews, this has happened to other users.

Castor broke and almost caused me to fall. It was aVEVOR Mechanic Stool, 300 lbs Capacity Garage Seat/Work Stool with Wheels, 360 Swivel Rolling Workshop Stool with Tool Tray, Mechanics Creeper Seat/Step Stool, for Garage, Shop & Auto Repair, Black. A male that weighed about 200 pounds. It could have lead to falling and getting a concussion or other injury. If power tools were in use other injuries could have resulted. I managed to regain balence before I fell over.

The seat of a new stool separated from the stool base when my husband sat on it. He fell to the floor onto the base of his spine and then back onto the base of the stool. He received a significant bruise on his tailbone, an abrasion at the base of his skull, and muscle strains throughout his torso as a result of the fall.

I would like to report the "Bosmere N468 Plastic Kneeler Seat for Gardening". They market it as useable as a seat as well as a kneeler. But when used as a seat, the seat is 10" wide and the base if 7.25" wide. It is very tipsy. I tried using it as a seat and unless I was positioned exactly right, it would tip over. I wanted to use it for weeding my garden beds. I would be leaning forward to pull weeds and reaching back to put them in a trash can and think it would be very dangerous so I didn’t use it. I don’t think that "seats" should be wider at the seat than they are at the base.
