Aerobics Step Platform for Wii Fit
Pros: This Aerobics Step Platform for Wii Fit Balance Board is very stable and does not move, shift or flex when used.
Cons: No paperwork whatsoever, no instructions, nothing.
Weight is under-reported when using the step by almost 20 pounds. Apparently the foot holes are a little too deep. The Balance Board on the step registers weight correctly when I put 2 aluminum coins in each foot hole, then put the Balance Board on the step. Thanks Artdiver1 for the suggestion! (See Artdiver1′s reviews of the “Everlast 3 Aerobic Step” and “Wii Riser Aerobic Step for the Wii Fit Balance Board” for more details.
Steps don’t always register. Solved by adding the coins to make the foot holes a little more shallow. Now they register perfectly.
It works, but I shouldn’t have to jury rig it to make it work right.

I used this the instant I received it and plan to use it every day now!!
Pros:
1. Easy to assemble. Simply put the Wii board on top of it in
appropriate slots and it’s ready to use. No instructions necessary.
2. Definitely intensified the Wii Fit Step Aerobic workout. Felt it work
my calves, upper thighs, back and heart rate increased. I was very
satisfied with quality of workout I received using it.
3. It intensifies the Wii Fit Free Step workout too.
4. It’s very sturdy. I had my doubts when ordering it but I’m very
impressed w/ how sturdy it actually feels.
5. I felt it actually did calculate my weight and workouts correctly.
6. Easy to take the board off the step accessory if you don’t want to
use the step during other games/activities. Simply lift it out.
Cons:
1. It shifts a teeny bit in the slots at times but not enough that it
altered my workout or frustrated me. I didn’t really notice it.
2. I wish I had purchased it much sooner.

After reading the posted reviews for this product, I decided to buy and try. I have been happy with the workoput that I have gotten with the use of this product with my WiiFit balance board. I do suggest that you do place a poker chip (or the equivalent of) in the holes that the feet of the board go into in order for the board to register the correct inof to the Wii. That suggestion was obtained by reading the posts before I bought the product.

Like some have said, you have to modify this by putting nickles (that’s the perfect height needed) under the legs of the wii fit. Stable and a nice height adjustment to make step workouts much more beneficial.

With the CTA step platform for the wii balance board you can finally get real aerobic workout. The riser results in a 4″ rise, the same as most standard step platforms. I use it with the wii fit program and can tell that I am getting a much better workout. The only negative is that the seller on Amazon is asking almost $45. This is twice as much as others such as MacMall, at $19, are charging
