Very good. But an important question for me.

Good. I would give this 5 stars all the way except for one major issue. AMP folks if you happen to be reading this. PLEASE upgrade the plastic step screws. These screws come with a flat metal threaded insert and should only be torqued to 6 ft-lbs. If you pull even the slightest amount, they will break. Now that I was working on the motors and everything else, I could see the problem before it even happened. I didn't even have time to snuggle up and undress as a couple. No joke. Not even comfortable. But no big deal and I didn't care. I went to my basket of nuts and bolts, fully drilled holes to attach the plastic steps and used my own. I am sorry. but I really didn't want to trust my harness when it was on a step with three bolts attached to threaded flat metal and tightened to only 6 foot pounds. The nuts and bolts I replaced them with look fine and are torqued to about 20 pounds per foot. I have a lot more confidence in using the step now that I know there is a safe anchor point for the actual step. Please correct the design error and increase the mounting area. As we saw, I was the only person who had problems with striptease. And barely reaches the contact point before undressing? Yes. Made me a little frustrated but I fixed it and now it's better than the design. 4 stars. What else? I love it and don't want to be without it. Just people watch when you need to attach a plastic step to a bracket.

Pros
  • Ideal for a small home
Cons
  • boring packaging
