Returning from a shopping trip, I opened up the awning , and stepped up onto my plastic step one leg bent and slowly twisted tipping me off. Put outside in the shade it regained its composure and rigidity, I contacted the makers who sent me a replacement and collected the rogue step. I heard no more about it. Obviously that days temps. were high and the awning amplified the heat. Just be careful

@2:00 He mentions lightness as if it is an advantage. It isn't. A light step can easily tip over (as he goes on to say), be blown over or away, does not settle in longer grass, and even perhaps more likely to get nicked!
