Overview
Four stackable risers turn this platform into a height-adjustable aerobic step, ranging from 4 to 12 inches, rated to 275 pounds and made in the USA.
This is the compact square version of The Step line, distinct from the brand's wider rectangular platform, and its main selling point is a small footprint that stores easily. One long-term owner found the nonslip coating started peeling after a few years of regular use, and noted the current listed price feels high compared to what they originally paid.
- 4 to 12 inch adjustable height
- 275 pound weight capacity
- 16 x 16 x 4 inch platform
- 4 included stackable risers
Who it's for
Fits home gyms with limited floor space, and works for step-up drills, glute and lunge work, elevated pushups, and general low-impact aerobic stepping. Less suited to anyone wanting a single fixed-height step with no assembly, since height changes mean adding or removing risers.
Pros and cons
- Adjusts from 4 to 12 inches with stackable risers
- Small footprint stores easily
- Nonskid feet on risers prevent sliding
- Made in the USA with a 90-day warranty
- Nonslip top surface can peel after years of use
- Smaller stepping surface than full-length aerobic steps
Performance notes
Height is set by stacking or removing the four included risers rather than a lever or pin adjustment, so changing the workout difficulty takes a few seconds. The platform's small footprint compared to full-length aerobic steps is the tradeoff for that adjustability, since it supports both feet side by side rather than a full stride.
