This park-model trailer step provides the stability of a stationary step with a handrail on each side. The triple-step Econo Porch comes fully assembled: To use, simply unfold and attach braces.Had a rivet pull out of the third step. I had to remove it and secure it with a bolt and nut. I hope this is not a normal thing to do. Over all I think they will do what I need them to do. The packaging was very well done and there where minor scratches but over all A rating.
Missing 2 long screws. The steps has 2 handrails. I received only 2 screws for one handrail. There is also a scratch on one of the step.
This was just what I needed to make things a little easier for my two little old dogs. I have to admit, I'm enjoying the shorter steps up to my rig, and the landing area makes me feel much safer going in and out of the door with packages.
As it turns out, I could not use the left side rail and open the door. The etrailer rep worked with me to arrange the return. I have appreciated their professionalism and customer service throughout this purchase.
If I have one suggestion, it would be to make a version of these steps in white. The black absorbs the heat something fierce and I will definitely have to be mindful of taking the dogs up the stairs in the heat of the day.
Very solid and secure stairs. I love the fact that they have the railings as well. They fit right up against my bus for easy access on and off.
So, first off, I do not own a trailer. I did, however, have to replace a three-step set of treated wooden steps to our front porch. After measuring and parting out the job, with treated lumber I was left flabbergasted. In addition to the lack of required woodcraft I searched for another solution. I found it at etrailer.com. The unit arrived in fine shape and was standing solo in less than one hour. Today I removed the wooden steps, leveled the site and bolted the unit to our porch. He unit is solid and stable and has already triggered comments from he neighbors. (All good!)
The only not I could pick was a lack of screws and nuts for the second railing. No big deal as I had the appropriate hardware in the shop.
The not suggestion that I could offer would be to replace the slotted- and philips-head screws with hex-head bolts. Much easier to tighten safely.
Great product.
Order arrive faster than expected, product is great, we bought 2 and they work as intended, sturdy and very good quality.
Bought this to be used on my hot tub it worked perfectly. Allows easy access to get in and out
Bought these steps to help making our destination trailer easier to get into. When I placed the order I was told they didn't have them but for an extra $14.00 I could have them direct shipped from the manufacturer. Did that. A few days later the steps minus 1 handrail arrived at our park mailroom. Package was damaged and looked to have been dragged there. Was mailed from Etrailer. Got the package home and opened it to find the steps were poorly packaged. The paint was scraped up in many places and the handrail was damaged. The bottom supports were scraped as if they had been used already. There were burrs on the rails that had to be filed so as to not cut your hand when using them. (the second rail direct shipped also had burrs on it). The non skid pads were put on improperly at the manufacturer so the steps look crooked. Contacted Etrailer about them and they said I could return them and they would ship new steps to me. I have to pay people to pick up and bring heavy packages to me so the cost of reprocessing the order wasn't worth it. Etrailer didn't offer to knock any money off the bill or make arrangements for a sight pick up. I am making the repairs myself. Wouldn't recommend the steps and I won't be doing any more business with Etrailer.
The finished steps are good but not worth the price! The railings are not solid and no matter how tight I screw them down they sill move out when holding on to them. When the package arrived it was damaged and torn open on one corner and some bolts and nuts fell out. When I tried to unfold the steps to begin to put the braces on I had to use a crowbar and hammer as one end was pinched badly. Some bolts and nuts fell out of the box as it was delivered and until I unwrapped the last railing did I find a package of bolts and nuts. Thought there were none so bought new ones at the hardware store.. Also found that the steps where not wide enough to use on my primary trailer entrance so have to use. them on the other entrance.
Been the best step for getting in and out of our new hot tub. I would highly recommend this item.
Pretty happy with the stairs.
If they were 3 inches wider and a little bit taller I'd have given it 4 stars. I had to utilize part of the stair system on the RV because the top step was too low without using part of that built-in step.
Other than that it's worked out great.
I really like having handrails on each side vs some of the other styles that are available.
Product arrived no damage, assembled steps and realized I was short two long bolts and nuts for the second railing I ordered, railing came but no bots to attach to stairs.
Stairs appear to be well made.
Two of the rivet type connectors are defective; heads missing and do not connect the parts they were intended to connect. Not usable in current state.
It went together without much problem. It looks like it should work just fine. I will install it on my 85 year old mothers RV the day after Christmas then I will know better
It's just prefect!!!
The stairs were very easy to put together and it felt very sturdy.
Great product
As described with fast shipping. Thank you foe your product and service.

Came with package in poor shape. No instructions or hardware. ( bolts/ nuts/ washers ect.) Delivery was timely.Would be awkward to load with hand rail. Modified so you can easily remove it. Used my hardware.
Review from a similar Econo Porch in RV and Camper Steps
We are living in our 5th wheel full time and the steps that came with it were hard for my 78 year old wife to use, even with the fold out railing. She likes these steps because of the wide landing at the top, the full handrail, the moderate rise of the steps, and the grip on the steps for secure footing. We've had them for a year and they're holding up well and are very sturdy and stable. They're held together with 8 bolts plus 2 for the railing which is sturdy. It's hard to take them with you as it's rather wide when folded. They don't fit in our basement. When we moved, we put them inside leaning against something with a blanket around them which worked. For a pull behind, they could go in the truck. Before I found these I was going to build steps out of wood which wouldn't be portable and take more money and a lot of time. We're very happy and would buy them again.
Review from a similar Econo Porch in RV and Camper Steps
I was amazed at the fast shipping, we ordered on Saturday and received the steps on Wednesday. A+++. I set up the stairs right away without too much problem. The back right leg looking from the front is twisted slightly and made the bolts difficult to install for the landing. I took a couple of photos but hard to see. Entering and exiting the trailer with the new stairway is much easier and we have been looking for something portable and sturdy for our Grand Design Imagine and we hope this will do.

We used the steps for the first time this weekend. They made all the difference of getting in and out of the camper. Especially the landing. Thank you.
