how wide are the steps? Is the top step wider than the others?

The steps are 5.5 inches wide. All three are the same width. The distance from step to step is 10.5 inches. This step ladder is very secure and easy to climb due to the bar at the top.

The steps are approx. 5" deep and 13" wide. From back of step to front of step is 9" for the bottom one and 10" for top.

The steps are six inches deep (front to back) and each step is five inches high. Hope that helps!

The steps are just a fraction under 10", 20" and 30". The steps are 14-1/2" wide x a depth of 10" - great for fat feet and very sturdy. It also has a large rubber grip on the very top of the stairs. Have fun reading the six stupid government labels.

Hi Alice, Thanks for your interest. The steps are 25 inches high. This is the extra large set. Thanks again, Spencer

Without being home to measure it, i would say the steps are about 14" wide. i am 260 pounds and the ladder is plenty big for us.

1st step is 9", 2nd (top) step is 16-1/2" I wasn't prepared for such a large step stool. Dimensions are 15-1/2" x 15-1/2". But now I love them. I sit down to put on my shoes, I sit on one to use my Light Box at the end of my long table, I move it to the closet to reach high shelves. They are is very sturdy!

Each step is 7.5" from front to back (start of next step). Our 20lb Jack Russel / Chihuahua sometimes sits on the steps and over time she has been using the stairs more and more. I can't comment if these are good for bigger dogs but definitely good for her size.

It is 20 inches tall at the point of the top step, and the 15 inches wide. We love ours as it looks nice enough and our shih tzu has easy access up and down without our assistance. We move it out the way during the day and have it at the bedside every night.

I think the other answers tell the story, but here's a little more information: The top step is just short of 10" deep; the others are about 7" deep. They are about 14" wide. The ladder itself is too high to sit on and still put your feet on the floor, and as another person pointed out, sitting on any step will have either the handle at the top or another step pushing into your back. This is a ladder, not a step stool.

I can see that someone else answered the dimension question, but i will weigh in on the comfort level of the steps' dimensions. The steps are more than adequate for anyone's feet (which makes the "small" woman's remarks mysterious). The stepstool,is incredibly sturdy, and the handle at the top is most reassuring. I realize that i must sound like an employee of Rubbermaid--which I'm not--but this stepstool is 1000% better than the rickety affair i was stupid enough to be climbing on before (i too am a senior citizen).

I bought this for my daughter, so don't have it to measure, but I remember the steps having enough width (12 to 14 inches) and the surface being non slip and sturdy. I think one could go bare footed, depending on your foot sensitivity, but in an emergency, one will be able to use it.
