I just bought one of these for washing my wheels. I don't use it to store tools but it's the perfect height to wash wheels.

I have one similar but it is still too high for me so I opt to use a small piece of plywood to sit on. Since my partial knee replacement I can not kneel ever on anything.

Timely thread. Been thinking about getting a mechanics stool for detailing the car - will consider this one along with the Harbor Freight and PowerBuilt ones.
