So much better than the standard Intex pool ladder! - The ladder arrived in two boxes, but one of them was missing the 4th blue step piece. I contacted the seller, and they responded right away—sending out the missing part the very next day. Their customer service was exceptional and friendly! We received the piece a couple of days later and were able to assemble everything without any issues. The ladder itself is very well-made and sturdy. We added 40 lbs of play sand for stability and chose to place the larger steps outside the pool. It’s definitely worth the price! We feel so much safer getting in and out of the pool now—the Intex ladder that came with our pool was tiny and honestly pretty scary to use. This is a huge improvement! Review: Easy to assemble but, heavy. - We just opened the pool for the season so please excuse the appearance around the pool. Ladder was easy to assemble. Pretty much one person to assemble but, you'll need two to lift over pool because it's a heavy ladder. I didn't like the idea of putting sand inside the ladder for personal fear that sand can somehow leak out of ladder and mixing with water so we decided to drown the ladder into pool and fill it up with water instead. There was some floating issues so we took thick zip ties and tied ladder to top pool railing for now. Make sure a pool pad is under ladder to protect pool liner. Steps are wide enough to sit down and relax. Ladder on outside seems sturdy and very little wobble. Overall good sturdy ladder. UPDATE..I noticed if the outside ladder sits in high heat weather all day it will soften the plastic ladder. So when you climb it, it will bow a bit. ## Features - NO WORRIES - Make entry and exit from your pool easy with this complete set above ground in-pool step. This unit forms an economical entry and exit system for pools 48 inches to 54 inches wall height. Each wide step has a dimension of 10 inches x 27 inches so there is no way you can miss a step when entering or leaving the pool. - A DECK IN THE FUTURE - Includes mounting brackets to safely secure the ladder to your pool or deck. If you don’t have a deck now but think of having one built in the future, you can convert this ladder to attach to your deck. - EASY INSTALLATION - This ladder works for most above ground pools with flat bottoms. Snap together pieces makes for an easy installation. To prevent the ladder from floating, pour in 10 pounds (40 pounds total)of sand in each of the 4 openings of the ladder. - WATER CIRCULATING DESIGN - Side openings allow for water circulation behind unit to inhibit unwanted growth. Also allows for other pool chemicals to do their job without getting stuck within the ladder. - ECONOMICAL AND STRONG – The in-pool step has a white durable frame with large, wide blue steps for high visibility in water. Ground to entry step has gray tread steps and swings up into an upright position for security. Includes padlock. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00SFTCM6I | | Best Sellers Rank | #14,674 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ( See Top 100 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ) #24 in Pool Ladders | | Brand | Confer Plastics | | Brand Name | Confer Plastics | | Color | White/Blue Treads | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 173 Reviews | | Item Dimensions W x H | 27"W x 48"H | | Item Weight | 10 Pounds | | Load Capacity | 400 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Confer Plastics | | Manufacturer Part Number | 832403B | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | 5 years. | | Material | Resin | | Material Type | Resin | | Maximum Height | 60 Inches | | Number of Steps | 3 | | Other Special Features of the Product | Durable | | Product Dimensions | 27"W x 48"H | | Special Feature | Durable | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Confer Plastics - **Color:** White/Blue Treads - **Material:** Plastic - **Product Dimensions:** 27"W x 48"H - **Special Feature:** Durable ## Images ![Confer Plastics Step-1X with 8000X Ground to Step Ladder: Above Ground Entry System, Dual Handrails, Slip-Resistant Steps, Supports 300 lbs, Easy Install – Made in USA, White with Blue Step-1 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51VgltS+UxL.jpg) ![Confer Plastics Step-1X with 8000X Ground to Step Ladder: Above Ground Entry System, Dual Handrails, Slip-Resistant Steps, Supports 300 lbs, Easy Install – Made in USA, White with Blue Step-1 - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51G6b6LFr1L.jpg) ![Confer Plastics Step-1X with 8000X Ground to Step Ladder: Above Ground Entry System, Dual Handrails, Slip-Resistant Steps, Supports 300 lbs, Easy Install – Made in USA, White with Blue Step-1 - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51XRTxT7N8L.jpg) ![Confer Plastics Step-1X with 8000X Ground to Step Ladder: Above Ground Entry System, Dual Handrails, Slip-Resistant Steps, Supports 300 lbs, Easy Install – Made in USA, White with Blue Step-1 - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51BSYmmXY4L.jpg) ![Confer Plastics Step-1X with 8000X Ground to Step Ladder: Above Ground Entry System, Dual Handrails, Slip-Resistant Steps, Supports 300 lbs, Easy Install – Made in USA, White with Blue Step-1 - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51h1Q21bdCL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: I have a deck I want to attach a step to.

So when you climb it, it will bow a bit. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Defies physics *by H***R on June 20, 2019* I can't keep this in the water. It keeps floating up. Instructions were just awful and useless. My dad and I were able to figure out - he did one side and I did the other. Instructions were in English but didn't seem to make sense, like they were missing a step or explanation. Directions say to fill with sand to keep it in the water. What I don't understand is how do you get it out of the pool in the winter if it's full of sand. Perhaps that's why mine keeps floating - because I filled with water? My other ladder was filled with water and wasn't a problem. Then as i lifted it out of the water, it would drain and I could lift over the wall. I can't understand how you'd lift this. I love the steps concept. Exactly why I picked this style. Very sturdy. I imagine works best with a deck (which it seems compatible to do). Right now I don't have a deck so need the last side. But once I have the deck, i won't need to buy another ladder. My only complaint is that the steps are open in the back so difficult to clean the pool there. Where my ladder is positioned makes our hard to move aside. I believe this is more of an issue of my placement. But if this wad attached to a deck, you can't move aside at all so cleaning would be impossible. I believe other styles like this are solid in back - to avoid an algae problem and help with weight. ## Frequently Bought Together - Confer Plastics Step-1X with 8000X Ground to Step Ladder: Above Ground Entry System, Dual Handrails, Slip-Resistant Steps, Supports 300 lbs, Easy Install – Made in USA, White with Blue Step-1 - SWIMLINE HYDROTOOLS Protective Mat for Above Ground Pool Ladders/Stairs/Steps, 36" x 36" - Main Access Anchor - Universal Pool Weight for Above Ground Entry Systems, Steps and Ladders (One-Pack) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/12285933-confer-plastics-step-1x-with-8000x-ground-to-step-ladder](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/12285933-confer-plastics-step-1x-with-8000x-ground-to-step-ladder) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-07-27*
