Traveling in an RV brings the comforts of home to the open road. However, one aspect that can often be overlooked is the ease of entering and exiting your mobile abode. That’s where the Torklift GlowStep Revolution steps in – quite literally – to transform your RV experience. Especially handy for those of us that are getting a little bit older and maybe (just maybe!) don’t see that well at night, or have knees that remind us we’re not teenagers. 🙂 The original steps that came with our 2022 Winnebago Micro Minnie FLX weren’t bad but they were a bit high for us. This was especially obvious on uneven surfaces for us.
A Step Above the Rest
We started looking for steps with more flexibility, and we found them. The GlowStep Revolution is not just any RV step system. It’s a game-changer for RV owners who demand durability, safety, and versatility. Made of aircraft-grade aluminum and stainless steel, these steps are built to last and to provide a stable, secure entry into your RV. They’re also easy to clean, which I’ll touch on more later.
Notice the squares that look like they glow in the dark? They do, in fact, glow in the dark, which has been wonderful for us at night.
Infinite Adjustability
What sets the GlowStep Revolution apart is its infinite adjustability. The All Terrain Landing Gear allows you to deploy your steps on any type of terrain, ensuring a level step every time. Whether you’re parked on a rocky trail or a smooth driveway, your steps will always be perfectly aligned for safe entry and exit. Each foot can adjust individually to give you further control.
Easy Installation
Installation is a breeze with the GlowStep Revolution. Designed to mount in your existing step well, these steps maximize ground clearance without the need for drilling into your RV step mount. For those without an RV step well, the GlowStep Revolution Uprising mounts seamlessly in the doorway, providing the same level of adjustability without obstructing your screen door or entryway12.
For our Micro Minnie FLX, the install was surprisingly easy. I was able to remove the old steps and simply use the existing bolts & bolt holes to install the GlowStep unit. I did end up using the spacers that were included in the package but that was it. I did it myself in less than 1 hour. (It was a nice day and I wasn’t in a hurry.) They weigh less than the original steps, which was a pleasant surprise.
The Uprising Advantage
The GlowStep Revolution Uprising takes it a step further with a built-in booster step, allowing you to activate or stow away the bottom step without removing it. This feature, along with the adjustable bottom step and step support, makes the Uprising variant a standout choice for those seeking the ultimate in convenience and flexibility2.
One of the first trips we had with the steps was to Burning Man. This year was especially interesting because of the flooding that happened at the event. There was mud. So much mud.
Fortunately, cleaning the steps off was not a problem. The aluminum finish was actually really easy to clean and we managed to keep the mud off of the steps and out of the trailer. The boot brush attachment that came with our unit was also helpful, although towards the end of the week it was a bit clogged with mud and we ended up taking off shoes outside.
Conclusion
The Torklift GlowStep Revolution is more than just a set of steps; it’s an upgrade to your RV lifestyle. With its robust construction, ease of use, and adaptability to any terrain, it’s clear why so many RV enthusiasts are making the switch. So, step up to the GlowStep Revolution and step into comfort and convenience on all your travels. And of course, keep your trailer a bit cleaner. 🙂 We have been 100% satisfied with these steps.
