Are the steps on this stool made of metal or plastic?

metal and they are very good steps, we are older and need absolute security in a step and this one does that job.

They're made of plastic or some similar material and are substantial. Definitely NOT metal.

I am fairly certain they are very heavy duty plastic. We use it in our Law Library and it definitely holds adults. I am home for the weekend but can double check Monday and let you know. I'm not sure of the weight limit but it seems very sturdy and we have never worried about larger people using it. I hope that is of some help.

The steps itself are a non slip kind of rubber and wide, the frame is not plastic but aluminum and quite light to handle and fold flat.

My shelves and ladders were plastic. Only the cage was metal. The middle flooring is also metal like the outside walls of the cage.

They are made out of plastic. The only things that are stainless steel are the side rails/gunwale hooks, and the two legs that hold it away from the hull. The plastic steps are very strong. My son steps on it and he weighs 240# and it didn't bend at all. I bought the four step because you can use also use it as a three step.

The base is metal with a wood cover. The whole thing seems flimsy though, and possibly dangerous. I could not recommend these chairs.

Metal. I put this together myself pretty easily. Time consuming, but the directions are great.

I would guess a pine... This is a very sturdy stool. Bought it to convert for our son as a counter stool. The steps are still a bit to much for him at 2+ years but Ikea does not sell this targeted at toddlers. Love Amazon/ love ikea... If you pay attention, you get what you see... Hope this helps

They are made of plastic and very light weight. We have been pleased with their function and looks.

The legs and platform are metal, not sure exactly what metal. This table is extremely easy to put together and is sturdy.

Everything appears to be metal. I was cautious about plastic units breaking, which is why I went with this one. So far, it has held up really well, and is very sturdy (and heavy). I could probably use it as a weapon in a pinch. :)

Plastic, there are metal pipes/rods, but they don't detract at all from design. The plastic feels high quality, and the door has held up well under heavy use.

Definitely metal, just assuming aluminium. There is a DANGER ELECTROCUTION on side panel. A shame, it's a great ladder.

They are plastic, however, I'm 6'3" 275 and they work fine for me. They are several inches wider than an average step ladder.

The wheels are plastic. The instructions are easily read and it was easy to assemble, just make sure the child is not around. Parts may 'wander off' during assembly making everything more difficult lol

the legs are not metal... they are sheets of laminated particle board as i previously stated which fit into a hard plastic foot
