Yes4All 18.9″ Aerobic Exercise Step Platform with 2 Risers, Adjustable Height Workout Stepper 3″ 5.1″ for Home Gym

does the job
I purchased this knowing it was a smaller version of the usual ‘exercise step’. It’s exactly what I needed/wanted. I use it right in front of my desk! When I have a few minutes, I pull it out from under my desk (where it is stored & lives as a footrest) and do some steps. Keeps my legs from cramping sitting at a desk all day. Helps with my inevitable hip pain from sitting all day long & keep the blood flowing. It only ‘slipped’ one time & I think it was the way I stepped on it. It generally does not move around. The height adjustments are easy to put on, I have not taken them off so I cannot speak to whether they are easily removed. All in all it has helped me get a little exercise when I otherwise wouldn’t.

Not Using This For Excercise
I have porch chairs where my feet don’t easily rest of the ground. I slide these under and slide them out when I want to rest my feet. They are well made and most likely very suitable for excercise.

Sturdy and easy to use daily.
I’m happy with this. Works good for me. My knees are weak and I feel this is helping me. It’s small so it’s easy to move out of the way. I have been using it daily. Pops together easily. Lightweight but very sturdy.

I love it I recommend it
I loved it when I saw it because the material is super strong, the price is great, and it’s very good for doing cardio at home. Excellent product, I give it a 100

Sooo happy with this! Solid and the standard you would find at the Gym. In fact I bought two! (One for the holiday home)

As they say “looks can be deceiving”. Definitely the case with this step. I was very impressed when I first opened it up, it felt solid, and was an awesome size. Having recently had a spinal fusion surgery – amongst other operations and procedures, I was purchasing this to assist me with rehabilitation and recovery. I decided to do a small workout using this step and discovered it has a dangerous manufacturing fault (or is just generally poor quality). As can be seen in the pictures above, particularly the one with the ruler across it showing the problem area. The steps top layer has a defect and dramatically sinks when any weight is put on it. This was not immediately noticeable until, of course, my foot landed on it and got caught in it! Basically tripping me. Upon further inspection it sinks on the edges of both sides. Now, as can be seen in the image with the ruler across, it has began developing a permanent “depression”. Over time this will continue to get worse and worse and if you decided to continue using it then it would be best to “exercise” extreme caution on where your foot placement is. Unfortunately for me, I have permanent nerve damage from the spinal issues and now due to my foot catching on the sunken part of this product this has now aggravated it. It took 3 hours, being transferred from department to department and multiple Amazon representatives avoiding questions or saying they didn’t know this or that. They required me to answer all their questions and requested further evidence of the fault in order to decide whether to remove the product from sale to cover themselves from any further issues. Again, unfortunately, there already is an issue…me. Not only did I waste 3 hours of my time due to their customer service (or lack of), but I had to participate in THEIR internal investigation, wait 24 hours to speak to someone in a position to talk about situations like this, no longer have a suitable product to use, and to top it off their product has aggravated an injury I have spent nearly a year trying to recover from.Finally the relevant department contacts me and offers minimal further assistance. Man, Amazon’s customer service and experience is just seriously lacking sometimes. Looks like this will need to be taken further.
