what is the distance between the steps? Could a 4 yr old navigate the step distance? Thanks

I don't have an exact measurement, but my three year old does fine with it.

Its about four feet long and about six inches between the steps and it does touch the ground.

From clip on top to bottom step is approx. 4-5 feet. Works well for climbing into our Zodiac.

We don't have the stool any more, as my son is now old enough to reach counters, but each step was about 4-5 inches tall. So the top step was around 10 inches off the ground.

The distance from top to bottom (height) is 39.5 as stated in the description above. The distance between the steps is about a foot.

My best guess a foot and a half, We dont have ours up right now. The slide side is higher. Keep in mind little ones would need to enter on the left side and exit down the slide. My Lil guy would get upset because at first he could not climb the slide (it's also kind of slippery).

Cliff - not very fast but for small children it is fine. You can walk along side it. The pedal is on the floor and when you turn it on the lights go on. There is also a button that makes it go forward/reverse.

I have a 7 yr old who plays on it with her 4 yr old sister and her feet are off the ground. If you need a little more info than that then I will go outside and measure if needed. They mostly use it to swivel around really fast. We LOVE it.

This could be a safety concern. The ladder portion can be removed to limit access, but the steps would be accessible to small children

Probably not for the 4 year old. It's very ready for an adult to move around.

My 4yr old loves it, but he is tall for his age. If your 4year old is short, there may be issues reaching the pedals.

Just measured my steps and it is 20.5" to the top step (4). It measures 28" long. Each step is about 5" high, it is longer than it is high, probably to make it more stable. Hope this helps. 14.5" wide.

I mounted mine about 10 inches below the top of the door. That way everyone can walk under it with no problem. In my review I posted specifics about dry fitting the unit into place. Remember that the bar swings down lower, too, if used for the inclined pull ups/push overs. A four foot person could either jump up to grip it for regular pull ups or stand on a step stool, etc. So, I don't see why a child couldn't reach this.

There are TWO steps, the higher of which is about 18". Be careful not to lean out to reach something - the stepstool will slide out from under you1

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.

I'm inclined to say "Yes" on both counts. a)When butted up against a flat wall with a baseboard, the front edge of the top step is about 3.5 inches from the wall. When butted up against a kitchen cabinet (which typically will have a recessed foot-well), the front edge of the step is about 1 inch from the cabinet face. b)The handle extends into the top step space by about 3 inches, leaving lots of room to stand on the top step for either a toddler or adult and the unit is very stable, even with a 240 pound adult on the top step. BTW, the top step is about 17 inches off the floor, so any toddler taller than about 24 inches will easily be able to see and reach over most countertops (a mixed blessing). It is also probably light enough to be carried by many older or larger toddlers, although with some difficulty. My 3 year old grandson uses it to wash his hands in the bathroom sink.
