Review on Camco 43675 - Durable Steel Folding Step: Reliable, Safe, & Non-Slip - Craftsmen & Repairmen's Favorite by Troy Henkhaus

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good but limited by design.

I love this stool and use it for my caravan. I use it when I need an extra step due to alignment. It is developing beautifully and has taken the burden off me and my family so far. I'm on the heavier side so wasn't sure how well that would work with this design but it claims to fit 250 which is me or maybe a few pounds more on any given day. I've also successfully pulled gear in and out of the camper with this move. The only problem I couldn't solve with this step is that you can't adjust the legs at all. There are other wider blocks that support individually adjustable legs. I have chosen not to take either of these and as a result, whenever there is a curb, bump or threshold I have to carefully step down and/or move the trailer until it matches the trailer. sometimes unfold and my wife let me fold it. I don't have a problem, but she does. I think she might be doing something wrong. There are also warning stickers everywhere to avoid breaking your fingers. They're well placed because they remind me every time I fold them, but I know it's only a matter of time before I break my finger. I think this is limited by its design and the price reflects the design limitations accordingly. Next time I would spend the extra money and buy a step with individually adjustable legs to cover terrain variations so I don't have to constantly move the trailer.

Pros
  • few competitors
Cons
  • unreliable
