Other than spending much more money please tell me what is functionally better about the MORryde product compared to my steps?
Your steps are not supported by the ground and will bounce and move if I walk on them.
The OP's steps are solid when you walk on them and do not wiggle and shake when you use them.
I think it's more about the quality of steps than anything else. Mine are not ROCK SOLID but sure are not unstable. I'm 60 and my Dad is 83 we don't have issue with my setup.
Pull into a Rest area those steps may not be so easy to lower.
Bottom line nice to have options!!!
I'm not a fan of the Mor Ryde steps because:
1. I don't like the idea of bringing interior step inside.
2. Bringing them in will bring in water, dirt or whatever is on the
steps.
3.THe step block the doorway which impedes access to the camper.
4. Deploying the sep is no longer a simple task the Mor Ryde steps are too large and cumbersome. They do work but they are a bit too much for a simple task.
All that said the OEM steps can also stand improvement. The steps shown above wiggle bounce and move when you walk on them simply because the are unsupported and hang from the trailer.
I have 4 steps, no stool required.
Once upon a time the OEM steps where all that was available so RV'ers just put up with their flawed steps. WE used stools and supports to make the steps viable.
Now we have options and can put away those stools away.
I have Torxlift Glow Steps, which are supported and rock solid but do not have any of the Mor Ryde issues.
