they are suprisingly sturdy..just the job for my mum as she has a bad knee
better than the old step that we had as in storage purposes

and if you have kiddies the make great stools for a couple of quid

We just binned one of them as the other half broke it while we were away. Ideal for the kids but didnt find it sturdy enough for us big kids

...i think i'd better give it some more 17 stone pressure testing then just to make sure..dont want me mum to go a*** over tit on the thing....cheers doc

No worries. It went through on the top where the handle is.

ok...for the concerns of health and safety...everyone disregard this post

Bargain for the kids

Does that mean that it didn't survive the 17 stone test?!

.. i darnt do it

it has took my weight easily but i would hate to think someone got hurt if the item is faulty.

it does say on the ad...

Max Load: 136kg (300lbs) so thats over 18 stone...i think

their great for seats for the kids though...as long as you dont trap their bums in the hinge ...another h and s concern


ok so their a bit crap ...oh dear..is this gonna turn out to be an.'AVOID AT ALL COSTS' thread

We bought one of these and have had it for about a year but the misus and mesen are both vertically challenged and neither of us weigh more than 9 stone, we havnt managed to brake it yet, and our little un loves it as a seat, climbing aid carrying toy.

So not totally useless, i seem to remember we paid about a tenner for ours so 2 or 3 quid it must be a bargain,

Blydi hell. 300 lbs max load?? Perhaps we had a duff one!!!

..gotta have been

Not managed to break ours yet either - and before last trip screwed a flip down drinks holder to one side so it could sit between the seats with a bottle of pop within easy reach when driving... worked a treat

thats a great idea bob(i might nick that one off you )

Just Kampers do a heavy duty metal folding step @ £10.00. It is still available as far as I know but I can't find it on their website.

You're welcome Weldore although point of note - when I said "screwed" I actually meant "bolted"! Aim between the thicker bits and then the nuts fit inside and it stll folds up the same as wot it did
