Pros and Cons,
Just received this riser. Over all I think it is a good product. However it has a problem that the engineers should have spotted easily. The holes for the Wii Fit board are too deep. This causes the sensors to give incorrect information on weight and BMI to the game. It also fails to read stepping and excercising properly. I solved this problem by putting two poker chips in each of the holes for the Wii board feet. This gave just enough rise and still kept the board stable on the riser. Everything works great now. If the product had been made properly I would have given it 5 stars. Since it needed me to modify the flaw, it only rates 1 star. If I hadn’t thought of the poker chips it would have rated a big fat “0″. I hope the people at Everlast take note. I’m sure that many of these will be returned because of a truly stupid error. I would still recommend this product because it is the best of the two risers on the market for Wii.

|Great workout addition, but you’ll need to throw in a few extra nickels,
As many have noted, the holes on this step are too deep. Sounds like a common problem for other risers, too. But it’s an easy fix, so don’t let that stop you from getting a better workout. Read the other posts for suggestions.
With Wii Fit Plus, I’m not sure the calories burned are accurate any more since the game is obviously unaware that each step your taking is now 3″ higher off the ground. That said, I’m not sure who believes those numbers anyway and it’s certainly not an Everlast issue. Like others, would have given this product 5 stars had the holes been the right depth. This is a great addition to your work out.
Product included accurate instructions on assembling with 4 screws (there’s a cross member to connect the two sides). Like all good products, it even had a fifth screw to satisfy every male’s desire to end up with extra parts. (YMMV on the extra parts)
