can you occasionally step on it for a walkway? is it going to break?

You need to put something over it. I use small rocks (pebbles) over mine. I have it surrounding tall grow boxes. No problems after several months of use. If dirt collects in the rocks (or bark or whatever you use), you can spray it with a weed killer as a few weeds may appear but will be in shallow, sparse dirt that has intruded into your walkway. Therefore the roots will be small. Works for me.I made the mistake of making some of my walkways where dirt will wash over them. I'm going to make a "dam" to control that. Be careful of where you place it so it won't get covered with dirt if you want it to be a walkway. You need to put something over it. I use small rocks (pebbles) over mine.

I put my down with the long staples. It has been down for a year. I don't walk on it often. But I have had to step on it occasionally without any breakage. I installed it in a small garden area where I do not need a walkway. Earlier responses had indicated not to walk on it.

Sorry, I don't know. I put it in an area with stones on top and no walking is done on it.

I wouldn't. You're apt to make a hole in it, trip on it, and get hurt. I'd sure recommend only using it UNDER something.

No it will not brake! Magnatiles has strong strips of plastic crissed crossed inside each tile to support the tiles so it won't crack when kids or adults step on them.

Yes. It has to be drilled into a walkway, on both sides. We have baseboards that are not flat so we has to raise the gait higher than the baseboards in order to drill it into the wall.

It will break ... sometimes. I have dropped a couple on our wooden floor that did not break but they did on concrete. As to whether they will shatter, if from high enough yes. So you have to be careful.

you can, but the breaks are very bad and need to be adjusted constantly which is very frustrating and impossible for someone who is disable or weak to do. I had to buy a walker from a different manufacturer and different style

I think it depends. It's padded pretty well, so dropping it from ~3-4 feet, it would probably be fine. Stepping on it might be a different story. It's not reinforced with anything heavy duty. It's made of fabric and padding.

Once it's bolted in place to the floor it would easily support an adult from a safety standpoint but I wouldn't recommend walking on it on a regular basis since it will flex.

Its likely but it depends on the transition piece at the top of the step. Mine goes over the transition molding from living room to kitchen and will drive up onto thin rugs. I don't have any steps or ledges in my house that it could fall off. It seems pretty sturdy though. I've dropped mine when cleaning out the brush a few times and its still good over a year later.

Ours doesn't get a lot of use, but I don't see where it would break under normal use. It feels sturdy.

If you just want to "walk with it", i.e. placing it on the ground as you take every other step, thenit's fine. You won't hurt it. If you intend to place more than a few pounds of pressure on it as you walk, let's say 20 lbs rough guess, then it's a bad idea. You will not be able to lean on it or use it to catch yourself if you stumble.

Yes you will. It is light weight but very sturdy. I had two total knee replacements at the same time. I folded the walker up and carried it down 14 steps twice a day. Now I use it as a chair for when I groom my puppies. This is a great buy...great product. I highly recommend it.

It is as long as you dont drop on concrete surface as i did mine ,it will break being hard plastic.

Yes. I have yet to have any problems with it. Strong to. I live I. An apartment and I can go out on my patio and halfway down the stairs.

Yes, the step is high impact plastic. The logo is embossed on it so it would probably have to be ground off.

I bought one for my mom last Sep. she just used a few times and the foot broke. I contacted Amazon and they requested me to sent the broken one back and sent a new one to me. Hope it helps.

I wouldn't recommend it for that. They fall. If u are power walking then they are fine.

It's pretty easy to move around, but I suppose it could break your toe if you drop it from table height.
