If you're looking to upgrade your RV entry steps, two of the most popular offerings on the market today are the Lippert Solid Step and the MORryde StepAbove step, which is actually what came installed on our rig from the factory.

At first glance you're not going to notice much difference between the two. They're both going to give you increased weight capacity and increased stability. They're both constructed from lightweight high-quality aluminum. They're both stowed inside on travel days so they're exposed to the elements a lot less. And they both have adjustable independent legs that work great on uneven terrain.

The #1 difference between these two models is going to be the step width and step depth. The 2nd difference is weight capacity. The 3rd difference is the ease of leg adjustment. 4th is the way in which the steps and the assist features are marketed and packaged. 5th is the way in which the steps are mounted to the rig. And the 6th difference is the performance of the assist features.

At the end of the day, after having both units installed and using them for some time, I'd say the Lippert Solid Step is the winner.

The wider and deeper steps are the main reason for the win, but the ease of foot adjustment is a huge bonus. And while I definitely prefer the smaller footprint and smoother operation of MORryde's strut assist feature over Lippert's lift assist, it's not a big enough deal to take the win.

So if I had the old, traditional-style step and I was looking to upgrade I would definitely choose the Lippert Solid Step.
