Stairs were delivered and assembly was a piece of cake. I did not put any sand in the stairs. Instead, I ordered the external 40 lb. (20 lb's each side of steps) to add weight to the stairs. I also bought additional 10 lb. weights at target to zip tie to the bottom. This resulted in an additional 30 lb weight for each side of the stairs. Steps are amazing! I don't have any issue with them floating or moving. Removal at winter should be easy since the weights can easily be removed first.
