After Christmas, placed one at base of bed and another Beside sofa for senior dog to be able to get into bed and onto sofa. Works beautifully, traction makes jumping onto bed and onto sofa safe for older small senior dogs. Excellent quality easy to move. I am not older but slightly disabled. Love this product. Love that it's made in the USA. Love that on the days I feel good I can do a few steps while watching TV. Love that I can also put one next to the stove sometimes when I'm cooking and rest my foot up on it. Love that I can put one of the steps under my desk and use it as a foot rest while I type. Love that I can put one on the floor beside my coffee table and use it as a little bench for coloring At the coffee table. Little kids love this. No, nothing snaps together. There are no snapping sounds. The bases just nest/ fit nicely together and move apart easily. I'm 200 pounds and I don't feel as though that's a problem. Nothing shifts or moves everything is safe and fine. Don't worry just get it to try; you won't regret it or you'll find lots of uses for it, just don't stress out.. Enjoy. Life is too short to ponder this for long. It's a practical gift to yourself. And there's no other way I can reach the Christmas tree stand to water it!
I love the fact that it's so sturdy. I never feel unsafe when I'm using it, and I think it'll last for years and years, if not decades.
I love the fact that I can change the height so easily. It makes the platform more versatile. (Right now, I'm just beginning step aerobics again after a knee injury, and I have it at its lowest height, which is pretty low. In a week or two, I'll be adding height to the platform, and that's so easy to do.)
I love the fact that I can store it so easily. When I'm not injured, I usually store it in my bedroom closet because, with a platform bed, I can't store it under the bed. There is no "under the bed" space. Right now, though, due to my injury, I'm sleeping on a futon on the ground floor on my home, and I store this between two bookcases. It's out of the way, and it won't fall. It's so easy to slide out every morning and every evening when I do my stepping.
I love the fact that the surface is non-skid, especially since I'm recovering from an injury.
I really love the fact that I'm gaining strength and mobility, as well as cardiopulmonary fitness, with every workout.
If you've done step aerobics before, you know how great a workout it can be. If you haven't done step aerobics, please know it's an exercise that strengthens your legs, helps your balance, and gives you a good aerobic workout as well. If you're just beginning exercise, however, take it slow. You'll see more progress if you build slowly but steadily. Consistency is the key. And if you have a medical condition, be sure to check with your doctor first.
I think this is the best aerobic platform I could have purchased. I love it, and I expect to gain a lot of strength and mobility from it very quickly. It's been a real blessing for me.

Overall Value ****
I had been considering ordering this unit for a while but was put off by the $90 price tag for a piece of plastic and only two-level risers. However, I was really excited to use my Les Mills PUMP Workout - Workout 3 Times a Week equipment but my floor was too hard to do the chest presses. So instead of getting the Original Step I opted for the Escalade High-Step . It wasn't until it was delivered did I realize that it was not a FULL SIZE step. **Oops, I did it again!**
Now, I was forced to order the Original Step and submitted my order the same day I received the High Step and selected next-day shipping. Unfortunately, the item was not delivered next day and did not arrive until the following week. Amazon was kind enough to refund me the $3.99 for next day shipping but I was pissed about the inconvenience. The shipping documents showed that the box weighed approximately 22lbs. The stepper was packaged tightly in the box and did not include extra plastic or bubble packs. As noted by other reviewers, the box is proudly stamped with the "Made in America" marker. NOTE - the black/gray unit DOES NOT include a DVD.
Space comes at a premium in my home and I did not have the space for a weight bench. I realized the Stepper would be great to do chest presses but still be able to easily break down and be stored in tight spaces. The stepper itself and the risers are sturdy. However, for a nearly $100 price-tag, the unit should come with 3 to 4 levels worth of risers. Since other users noted that the risers from the Escalade High-Step would work with the F1011W, my issues was solved at the expense of $60.
That said, I easily set-up the F1011W with risers from the Escalade High-Step . My favorite position is 4 risers on one end and 2 riser on the bottom; this set-up allows you to do chest presses and watch the TV screen without compromising on form. I think it's a bit ridiculous to have to spend $140 between the two products to get ample risers for work-out versatility; however, it does do the job and does the job well.

Strong and durable.
The Step F1011W comes with two sets of legs which can be applied when needIng a different height. I find the length of the Step F1011W to be the proper size for performing the routines as well as secured to the floor especially when standing or stepping to one end of the unit. I am very pleased with my purchase.
Llego rápido y en excelentes condiciones. Gracias :)
