No need to worry!
The 350-lbs referred to in our description of the TorkLift GlowStep Camper Scissor Steps # TLA7805 is their weight carrying capacity, not the actual weight of the step assembly. The step itself weighs only about 34-lbs thanks to its aluminum construction.
But if you wanted to add more weight carrying capacity to the step you can add the matching handrail # TLA7621 which gives it a weight rating of 375-lbs.
