    BoatEFX.

    I'm 380 pounds, and they hold me no problems. I also have to turn pretty good to get the boat into the driveway and garage, no issues hitting the bumper with the steps either.

    I have compared my Trick Step to a friend's Boat EFX and found the Trick Step to be more solid and rigid. Both are good products.

    My friends Boat EFX steps are fantastic. Very solid and looks great...and he's not a small guy either.

    I have both and like the trick step. I think it’s just personal preference. Both are very good.

    I went with Boat EFX on my rig. I don't remember exactly why now, but I'm very happy with them. Very solid and so easy to install.

    Boat EFX. And their graph locks are outstanding as well.

    I have trick step. One of the first dozen made. Love it. Recent health issue has made loading much harder so last week I called about making something custom and they responded we have a kickback handle that should help. Just installed it and love it

    Boat EXF for me, I got the four step model for same price. I cant raise my right leg high so needed extra step. They are rock solid

    Whichever you buy, absolutely positively get the pole.

    This is the 2nd boat I've had the Trick Step on and love it. They look almost identical.
