My step arrived well packed in heavy cardboard, with straps not tape holding it together. The frame is black, not red like the picture.
The step itself was likely stamped from sheet steel, and all the edges of the step itself are VERY SHARP, wear gloves or be careful handling it.
On my truck, a Ram 1500 with 33" 10-ply tires (17 inch wheels), the step is only a few inches from the ground... I am 6ft-6 and it's just enough so I can see into an over size tool box I have in my truck bed. If you have jumbo tires the step would be higher. I'm thinking I should have bought the adjustable version instead.
One star off for dangerous sharp edges!
