I've been happy with mine. Got it at a lower introductory price. Seat is firm, but overall it does well. I also added some white litium grease to a few points when I put it together which helps the casters.
I like mine, I did the same thing with mine, but used Loctite on a majority of the bolts. Now it is good and solid. Also used to heat gun to warm up the stickers and remove them. Then used goof-off to wipe off the silk screen label that says “grants” And finally, I applied a brand name sticker which came with a purchase from a well-known polishing company.
I just bought mine today and I'm using your video to put it together. A couple of things to note are, the big washers #24 you used on the tops of the Short Frame #2 should have been used when attaching the Seat Base #16 using the Bolt M6x25mm #23 to the Cross Bar #14. The washer to replace the #24 is Flat Washer M6 #4, the same as the one on the lower Lock Nut M6 #5. I'm sure it doesn't matter and all will be well, at least until it's not.
Glad you showcased this. The first one I purchased the ball bearings blew out and I was within 90 days and HF changed it out. My second one I got the “plan” for 2 years. Guess what? The grey rubber on the wheel blew out. So now back to HF for the 3rd one. It’s junk but I will keep going back to replace. Great video!
Brian I have the same allen multi-key set. I also have the T-handle set from Harbor Freight. I like those too, but it's nice to have all the sizes in one tool.
I see this detailing stool is not height adjustable. It also looks like the padding for the seat is hard. You are right about casters. My little cheap stool is on its 2nd set. Oh, well. Rolling around for Sissys play time looks fun. Get him Sissy!
The Vyper is an excellent stool. I have a few different types. Have 2 from Adams and one from Amazon I reviewed it for the product. I see a lot of different brands but how many can I use. Thanks Brian and that is a decent one from Harbor freight 👍🏽
Just bought one of these yesterday to replace an old HF rolling seat. One of the seat bolt threads was stripped out right out of the box. Thankfully the seat just rests on the sides so it isn't a huge deal. We'll see if this thing is worth the $70 it costs.
Hi Brian, Would it be possible to put larger rubber tires on this?? I work on concrete and it much more difficult to role compared to a shop floor. Thanks for the video. Respect from NC.
Thanks for the video Brian. I use a mini telescoping stool (no wheels) that compresses to a very small foorprint. On a different note, I have BC5 and it is amazing !! Can I use BC5 on my headlights ? Thanks !
Ny favorite detailing stool is the Vyper.....what is yours?
Griots 2.0
I want a Viper.
an upside down wash bucket!
Just a regular round orange stool with a tray and wheels nothing fancy just a simple one that works.
I bought a Vyper. Super heavy duty stool. Its a tank! Expensive as heck here in Canada. But worth it.

I've had and use my snap on creeper seat for over 20 years now. Still going strong.
I've had mine for 3 years, I've changed the casters to 5" and used loctite on the bolts. Has a few rust spots, but it's still going strong
I have a craftsman stool and the first thing I did was install 4 inch casters...........much smoother movement

I had trouble with the HF chinese wheels/hardware on mine, too. Bought a Sears stool and they went out of biz!
Good idea to throw away the tools they give you. Looks like they need a thicker threaded bolt for the casters in my opinion. Appreciate the video.
Looks pretty solid.imo seems like a lot of plastic not much steel .
Awesome video and product review good friend
Thanks so much

They hardly ever give me a hard time when I do a return.

The padding does very little.

I’ve thought about this chair. Good thoughts on improvements. Maybe I would switch things out to grade 8 hardware and ceramic coat it 😂

I want to get one of those vypers. Little price but they look worth the money.
Me too
...not a bad option 👌

Thank you Brian.
Got mine today for $40
I don’t love mine.
Seat looks hard
@@kimnewling5728 i was thinking of making a new seat pad.
I mean this is the epitome of you get what you pay for. It’s a decent seat. Nothing fancy.
I just bought one, the seat gotta be more comfortable than the milk crate I currently sit on to weld stuff at feet level lmfao
First!!!
