I love doing a lot of exercise with this super cute padded step. Even though it is the lowest level from the ground, it looks easy, actually the process of movement will be very tiring, I can swap jump up and down, it is still stable, no sliding, which makes me feel very reassured.

This is an awful product. The plastic edges made of a cheap plastic about as thick as a paper plate are higher than the legs so they drag on the floor. Besides making an awful sound like finger nail scratching on the blackboard, it chipped the first week. Returned it and bought a different brand.

If you plan to sit or laydown on this thing, it's going to hurt. Its definitely not intended for anything other than foot action.

The product is a sturdy hard plastic. The adjustments for height are not intuitive. There were no instructions included in the package. I can figure out 5" and 7" settings; however, no clue how to raise to 9:.
