Chas:
I doubt very much that a home-built set of steps will last as long as, much less outlast a set of the steps from Watkins.

We sell two different sets of steps, plus the faux stone units, so let's be sure we are talking about the correct ones. The "Everwood" steps are built from the same type of material as the siding, are factory assembled, and weigh a ton! If you have not gone into a dealer and tried to pick up one of these steps, then you are simply not qualified to comment about their durability, sorry.

These are the 'Everwood' steps, and are the ones I'm referring to:

Agreed ^.
The everwood step is a solid durable step. Matches perfect and holds up great. $400 seems like a high retail price with a purchase of a Pulse. Unless of course the dealer has "helped" you out in some other area of the quote.

I am referring to the "Everwood" steps. I surely won't argue that the steps are very nice looking, and being made from what I suppose is remanufactured plastic, it will last for many years. I have a set of Adirondack chairs made from that material I just mentioned and they have a lifetime warranty. I stand corrected as to the price since I went back and looked and found some that are available at the $288.00. My dealer wanted the $480.00 (give or take a few dollars) price for his Everwoods. Way too much and as I stated above, for me, the $288 is way too much for those steps. I made some that I will put against those any day. This tub will be in the land fill before the steps I made for under $65 are gone. I realize that I'll most likely have to paint them every 3 or 4 years, but I was not willing to part with that much money for something that could be built so easily. I also under-lit mine with LED so they glow in the dark, assuring the soaker a lighted way out of the water.

Just "fired up" a Pulse last night  ;D

Is it ok to assume that you have a very happy customer after that start up?   Beautiful!
