The foldable stool has a triangular shaped seat with three upper legs attached to the corners of the seat. A leg holder is attached to the bottom portion of each upper leg. The leg holders define a lateral opening that has an asymmetrical shape. A Y-shaped central connector units holds the leg holders together. The connector has irregular shaped extensions that are insertable into the irregular shaped lateral openings of the leg holder when the leg holder is turned into a first position. After being inserted, the leg holder may be rotated into a second position to securely hold the leg holder and so that the upper leg can be inserted into the leg holder and rest on a circular seat or flange that is disposed inside the leg holder. Lower legs are inserted into the leg holders. When it is desirable to collapse the foldable stool, the lower legs are pushed into the upper leg by pressing the knob to disengage the knob from the leg holder. The upper legs may also be moved together by collapsing the leather seat so that the upper legs are substantially parallel.
