Did they impove the steps the problem of the strength?

So far, so good . I am over 270 and they seem to be holding. I do not use them everyday. I use them to get out of our deep sided boar.

No clue what the old problem was. It seems okay to me. I stood on it. My 60lb dog has no problem.

I weigh 185 lbs and seem to have no problems, however I didn't jump on it. I haven't heard of that problem.
1400136
Not that I know of. I didn't get another set, as I am afraid they will just break again. They are in my opinion rather dangerous.

My dog weighs 110 lbs and comes down the steps hard...I've not stepped on them myself, but I've never worried or seen them buckle under that condition.

We were not aware that there was a problem, We only recently purchased the product, and wehave not had any concerns over the step strengths.

The steps were high enough to reach the sofa; that wasn't the problem. The problem was that my dog wouldn't use them no matter what I did, treats, etc., he just wouldn't use the steps. And I need him to b/c he won't jump off the sofa by himself! He'll jump on, but he won't jump off. He's an old mini-poodle w/arthritis so I thought the steps would be an answer but they're not!

If I weighed 30lbs I would have trouble picking it up or carrying it - and I don't. So I would guess that is a typo. It is a great step stool nonetheless.

Possible but would be challenging. Have done them occasionally but very carefully

Yes. After the first time it takes us about 30inutes to assemble. Wr do now carry a step ladder.

They were not hard to assemble but it was difficult to make them balance on all four legs.

This could be a safety concern. The ladder portion can be removed to limit access, but the steps would be accessible to small children

You have to climb the ladder and manually adjust it after loosening it from the pole. It was difficult for two grown men to do it.

I'm sorry, I don't understand your question. Did you mean "two steps beside bars?

I have not unzipped the cover to look, but the steps feel like wood. Must be VERY light wood because I can lift the whole thing with one hand really easily. Now, the sides feel like they are made of a large-corrugated cardboard. The tag on the whole unit says it can hold 200 lbs., but to not use it as a stepping stool for people. Maybe that's just a safety issue.

If you put it against a solid surface but then you wouldn't have the steps so I would say no....hope this helps

Not really but the bottom step is hinged with a fabric strap and does not hold it steady. I think the unit is unsafe and plan to replace it.

I cant answer that. I didnt need them to run very far. So for the most part they stayed tied.

None. We also got it up a tough staircase. It's not an extremely wide chair, you should be ok

Yeah, it's a bit heavy though. I have my husband do it, I am not strong enough.

Maria, I didn't get that far. I could walk for 1/2 hour and it would register 78 steps. I was too frustrated and too busy to hassle with trying to return it.

We (wife and I) brought box up three steps through a rear door. It was heavy and bulky. If going up / down stairs, I would recommend breaking down the components prior to moving. This was over a year ago so don't remember the particulars. The weights are part of an assembly which would have to be moved intact. As I rememember, I think it would require two people to move that assembly. I would buy this unit again, since we all love it and it gets regular use.
