Grabbed a step up today (£20) as my wife prefers them than ladders for painting etc. Seems pretty sturdy although the leg clips are poor compared to the youngman stepup which I have, although this was £45. If you don't need to fold them up everyday then I would say the ALDI version is great value for money - 3year warranty too.
N.B. For domestic use only but has a higher SWL than the youngman which is for professional use!

I agree the clip is a bit pants, but they are very sturdy. Hey ho for 20 bangers I think they'll be good.....

Re: Aldi today
Glad I wasn't the only one who thought the clip was bit naff. Ah well it still does it's job and I think the hop up would be fine without it anyway. For £20 I am very happy and it will make this years projects and awful lot easier. Also really pleased with my air hose for £20, such a time saver over my old method.
