Is it worth it over a plain rolling stool?

If you want tools on the seat and an adjustable height, the tray and gas lift make it more useful than a fixed stool. A plain stool is lighter and simpler if you only need somewhere to sit.

How low and high does the seat go?

The gas lift adjusts from 16 to 22 inches, which covers low wheel and brake work up to bench-height tasks. It is not a chair for standing-height work.

Will the casters roll on a rough garage floor?

They roll well on smooth concrete. On cracked or debris-strewn floors they can catch, so clear the area first.

The stool, four casters, the tool tray with four removable bins (one magnetic), and the hardware for assembly. Tools are not included.

Does the seat swivel and lock?

The seat swivels 360 degrees. The casters have no brakes, so it can roll when you shift weight.

How much weight does it hold?

The metal frame is rated to 330 lbs.

Our take on the Costway Pneumatic Rolling Mechanic Stool with Tool Tray

The Costway Pneumatic Rolling Mechanic Stool is a rolling shop seat with a padded faux-leather top, a gas-lift height range of 16 to 22 inches, and a 330 lb capacity. It rolls on four universal casters, swivels 360 degrees, and carries a tool tray with four removable bins, one of them magnetic. It suits home mechanics, detailers and garage hobbyists who work low and want tools within reach. Against plain rolling stools it adds the tray and height range; against premium shop seats it is simpler and lighter-duty.
