Sports reviews of The Step F1011W Original Health Club Step
Customer Review: Sturdy Step Platform
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
I truly like this platform. I owned a Rebok Step platform for years that I thought highly of but I gave it to a friend and bought The Firm Fanny Lifter (the blue and purple one) to save space. While the Fanny Lifter was great (and is - I still use it for leg presses, lunges and other strength building exercises), it was not stable enough for the step workouts I like to do. I have some Cathe Friedrich and Christi Taylor workouts that you need to be able to do some travelling to get the most out of the routines. Also, it is more stable on my less than level 100 year old wood floors than my Rebok platform was. I would recommend investing in this platform to anyone that will use it. If you are new to stepping, perhaps try a class a few times before spending the money or try the less expensive, shorter version. I have seen it for $20-$25 at discount chains. Personally, I have been step training for 20 years (I'm 41) at different impact levels and have no problems. For higher impact I train on the 6" level and lower impact on the 8". My 9 year old cocker spaniel also uses it to get on and off the bed.Customer Review: Bigger than a breadbox
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
I received this item is good condition. I was surprised by how big it was when I got it out of the shipping box. But, the dimensions were clearly given in the description of the step; some how I failed to relate 40 inches to being 4 inches beyond 3 feet. That said, I am very please with the size and stability of the step. Its length permits me to have a satisfying pattern for my workouts. Here's the pattern: step up with left foot, step up with right foot, step forward with right foot, step off to the left side with left foot, step off to left side and back with right foot; step back with left foot. Step up with right foot, step up with left foot, step forward with left foot, step off to right side with right fool, step off to right and back with left foot, step back with right foot. Repeat for 10 to 15 minutes and you'll know you've had a good workout.Customer Review: the best of The Step series

Erin Ferragut "ErinF" (Iowa) review of The Step F1011W Original Health Club Step "using my step for 10 years" sold me, after I tried The Step F1053 Home Trainer which is cute but the platform surface showed use after one evening and does not have the "slip-proof, durable mat on top" that the F1011W does have. Health Clubs buy quality, safety: this is it. If you can find: 14" x 40" surface, 4" to 6" to 8" height choice, supports 200 lb., for less than $85.94 with no shipping thanks to Amazon Prime: buy it. Thank you Amazon!Customer Review: BEST home exercise equipment, hands down!

To the reviewer who said you can make something like this for $20 or less, well, clearly they don't do step aerobics. This step is designed to absorb a lot of the shock of the moves, making it safer on your joints than wood. There is a nonskid mat on top. It is also sturdy and rated for up to 300 pounds. The step can be used for cardio or double as a weight bench. Additional risers can be purchased to build it up higher. Yes, it is expensive, but so very much worth it for the design and technology that went into making this safe for any level exerciser. I have been using my step for 10 years, and it's still going strong. It's made to last!Customer Review: The Step, Sturdy, Dependable

I ordered The Step F1011W hoping it would be identical to the sturdy Step's used at the health club. It was all I hoped it would be. The 4 included risers give me plenty of adjustments to vary the intensity of the workout. The Step is solid under foot on all parts of the stepping surface with no wiggle or shake, making me feel confident as I hop, jump, and step through my program. I tried a mini version of The Step (made by the same company, I think), but in this case, bigger is better. The larger size enables The Step to double as a flat style workout bench as well. When not in use it slides under my furniture.
