Review on Portable Wheel Step - Thule Step Up by Marc Gallner

This step is a great idea for those who put their skis/snowboards on the roof of an SUV. We used to stand on the tire itself or on the second row seats, but figured there had to be a better way. This stage is easy to set up and appears to be very stable. Now we don't need to do gymnastics anymore. And now the bad news. We've used it at home for loading, on the runway for unloading and reloading, and then back at home for unloading. A weld on one of the buckles broke, rendering the step unusable. The block is riveted together so there is no way to just replace the broken part. Thule has a good warranty and Revain offers excellent support. Revan sends a replacement. Hope the new one doesn't have this problem.
