Customer Reviews

Not what I expected at all...
This step sucks. If you are used to doing step classes at the gym, you will find it difficult to switch to this smaller step. I didn't know it was a smaller step or I wouldn't have bought it. It is hard to adjust to the shorter step, especially when doing a turn step or V step. It ends up being VERY close to a basic step. I was so nervous about stepping too close to the end and flipping the whole step up, that I was cheating myself out of a full workout. DO NOT buy this, if you're used to the step at the club. I feel like it's more dangerous on this, and ended up doing a lot of the steps on the floor. If you already know that you like to step, buck up and buy the club size step, even though it is twice the price of this one. Otherwise, don't buy anything.

Not exactly what I wanted
I was a little disappointed with this because it all comes apart so easily. When you are using it, it is not a problem. But when you want to move it out of the way quickly to do something else, the whole thing comes apart and you have to put it back together. It would be better if it locked in place or something.

gets me sweating
I agree that the step system is hard to shift out of the way since it comes apart easily, but I am amazed how it stays together no matter where you step on it. As far as it being too small, maybe the other reviewer is too big. I'm 5'11 and 180 lbs, and I use one raiser level, and it is perfect. Everytime I use the dvd (which is energetic and even a bit challenging at first -- and I had done step class at the gym about 10 times before purchasing this system), I sweat so much and my heart rate is elevated, so I know I'm getting a great work out; I recommend it -- especially to those who don't like working out. Easy to follow, repititive, but you feel like you're accomplishing a good fitness program when you finish!
