Aidapt Outdoor Half Step (Eligible for VAT relief in the UK)

Purchased for my parents as the home-made wooden step finally succumbed to 20 years of woodworm and the rain.... I chose this particular listing as it was needed next day; and as this item was offered with Amazon Prime delivery, this ensured we got it next day - yes you can get it cheaper but sometimes the delivery time is more important.Their doorstep is about 20cm (8 inches) high and with the onset of arthritis and old age is an effort for them to step up this high. This step is approximately 10cm high so cuts the effort in half. The texture/bobbles on the top ensures any mud doesn't make the step slippery, also there are drain holes to prevent water creating a puddle on the top too.Just a tip - ensure the ground is firm and level at all four corners to ensure it doesn't tilt when someone infirm stands on it as this could cause a fall.

I am writing this on behalf of my grandmother who is 80 years old. This product specifies that the max weight is 21 stone of which my grandmother is nowhere near that weight. However this product atfter only a monoth of use cracked all the way down the middle. This could have ended i serious injury especially for my grandmother who struggles with mobility. DONT BUY THIS PRODUCT

Bought this to help my elderly arthritic dog step up/down the patio/patio doors. It’s halved the distance and now enables her to access the garden much easier. The step supports my weight with ease and feel confident that it would probably support somebody up to about 20 stone as it has coped well with a larger relative. It is lightweight and easy to clean.

The step arrived very quickly , it was well packed . When unpacked I found it was sturdy and well made . I bought it to use outside my front door . I am very short and the step up into my front door is quite high . Add to that advancing age and I needed a little help . The step feels very secure and I am so pleased with it I have bought two more , for outside the back door and patio doors . They are brilliant and I wish I had bought them a long time ago .

I appreciate that this is advertised as an "outdoor" step, but I needed one to help me climb into my bed and also into my shower unit, which has a higher than usual step-in. Item is a great help for both purposes, the one downside (and hence knocked off 1 star) is the very prominent knobbly surface - presumably intended to be an effective non-slip step surface for outdoor wet and/or icy conditions, but a bit uncomfortable on the feet when wearing slippers or indeed just socks, indoors. Very pleased with the effectiveness of the step though, a big help now I'm a bit less agile.
