Yesterday I received and installed my GlowStep Revolution by Torklift International. It is a new product on the market which, in my case, means that I will no longer need to carry my box along to use as the first step. It has an adjustable landing gear for uneven surfaces. It is very well made and very sturdy. Be sure to watch the videos in the link. Here are a few photos.

All right. Good job. Looks like you are holding up your end of the bargain. ;)The variable distances from finish floor to the ground that we encounter at different campgrounds, and with our door being to the rear of the axles, made the GlowStep Revolution steps not a good fit for us. But they did say they would be working on a possible future new design that would handle our situation.

Love the landing gear at the end of the step. Not so in love with the price. Looks like a quality product, but way more than I could justify...

The steps look nice. I am glad you like them and that is what counts.

An offer like that only comes along once in a blue moon.

I wish I would have jumped on their offer when it was given to me. Now after reading all the posts, I looked at them along with the price. I guess I'll be keeping my old steps for awhile.

On second season with ours. They also usually stay down the entire time at home (have a camper carport). Other than being a bit stiff at first this season they are performing like a champ.

I asked, and they suggested hitting the joints with wd40 and then rinsing. Flushes out the built up dirt accumulation from travel I suppose.

Richard it is easy to adjust the stiffness. Try opening the bolts by 1/8 turn. Try a few then check it. Torklift advised me not to use any lubricant because it will attract dirt.

My trailer stays behind a locked fence in the backyard so the steps also stay down all the time.

I added two LED light strips above my GSR for accent at night.

Actually, they suggested hitting with wd40 and then rinsing with water. wd40 isn't a very good lubricant, but it's a great solvent. Dissolves road grime and then rinse with water to flush it out. However, loosening the bolts a touch is my next step (pun intended) for sure. Was at beach all last week so I'm sure there's a bit of grit in them again. LOL

Hey Torklift, if you are reading this, I'd love to evaluate your steps on my 2017 Mallard IDM29. My original steps feel like sponges!

I got the pm with the offer, and installed them on my TH. 2 trips in, and the better half loves them. I really like the stability, and when my knee quits working, I can still get in and out.

How the step hold after so many month?

We're into our 2nd season with them and they have been great. They sure reduce bouncing when someone walks in and out! :)

I installed ours on 9/30/15. We just completed a 3910 mile vacation trip and I have had zero problems with them. We love em. This photo taken within the last 2 weeks.
