    Good choice of step, we bought ours about 3 years ago while at Sandringham ccc site, as we were on a sloping pitch and needed a 2 step. I'm 14.5st and step is still in goog condition. My wife has problems with her knees and finds the step ok. Happy Caravanning.

    They look sturdy steps. Hopefully they will work out for you both! We will be interested to see what you think of them. Enjoy your trip away guys. Best wishes Sue, Brian and The Westies 👍🐶🐾🐾😍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿ps hope the weather isn’t too rainy or windy!

    Hi Mark and Coral. Really useful vlog on the steps. We had the same experience when we re-started caravanning 3 years ago with the single plastic step. We're ( a lot!) older than yourselves and not so lightweight either so we changed and bought exactly the Milenco steps you have now. 3 seasons later they're still as good as new, and being able to peg them down is useful, though we've never had to do it, as once down, they don't seem to move. They sit in the van when towing, so we also got a big square storage bag for them, so if it's wet when we leave a site, they can go in the bag, and don't do any harm inside the van and we can get them out to dry once home or on the next site. Think you've made a good choice with the steps. Have a great trip to one of our favourite sites ! Travel safe. Best wishes. George and Trish - CaravanningMacs

      Well, we have tried them out and we are very happy with them. You step on them , you go up, you step off them, you go down. Excellent 🤣

    I understand about steps. Our metals ones are plunging a little, but we started using metal post to hold them up. We feel like we will have to purchase a set of steps at some point. Good luck with your new steps. At least they won't rust.

    Hi Coral and Mark. Great video. We have the step you've got now and they are good steps. Just be careful not the step to one side as they can bend. 😒 but they are good steps. We've had ours for 3 years and still going stronge. Take care Guys. Sarah and Paul

    Glad you’re sorted, they look sturdy with a good width and depth of the step. Do you have a handle on the caravan to grab as well for extra stability? Or maybe you don’t need one, I don’t know. Anyway, have a great time in Scotland I bet it feels like you’ve been waiting for ages! ATB, Sue.

    They look rather sturdy! We have wooden steps but they are pretty heavy. The RV steps are getting pretty bad. But they're 40 years old. 😂🤣

      Our steps don’t last more than a couple of years, must be a design fault, can’t possibly be my weight 🤣

    Sounds like a faulty design rather than a weight issue, we think you should both have cake to celebrate and blame the bad design 😂👍 Hope the new step goes well in your trip, safe travels on Sunday looking forward to seeing your videos of Scotland 😁
