      Love the cosco step stool! I wonder if it comes in other colors?

      • Pam

        Carole, I see it on Amazon in red, black and white. They used to have them in yellow, but I don't see anywhere online where they have the yellow ones in stock. And I see lots of pretty turquoise ones in photos online, but it looks like those are all original vintage ones, so I think right now it's just the red, black and white to choose from if you want a new vintage one 🙂
