I ordered my stirrup steps (4 of them) on October 26th 2023. At the time, the Archetype website stated that there would be an "up to 8 week wait" before shipping...."up to 8 weeks"...26 weeks later, I received my order on April 8th, 2024. Very pleased with the product, still think they're overpriced. However, if you want steps that mount directly to the rock rails, look good and won't rust, these are your best alternative. Now we'll see how they hold up to the elements.

Steps are extremely well built and the installation simple. I was not impressed with the four month wait ( Sept 7 to Mid January)
Also the coating on one of the brackets was not fully applied, fortunately it is under the step and out of sight. Email with photo of bracket will follow.

I was looking for side steps for my Rubicon as my wife is short. The stirrups looked like just the thing needed. Web site stated 6-8 week lead time for production. I ordered in September and had to keep requesting a time frame for delivery once the 8 weeks had passed. I would receive sporadic updates until delivery in February. If it takes 16 weeks to produce, just be honest upfront, I could have lived with that. The steps themselves seem solid enough, hence 4 stars instead of 2.

I ordered these, and the customer service experience was a little underwhelming. But I admit, when I opened the box I was excited. They looked great. The build quality was good and the design was sharp. The box comes with a bunch of stickers and things that was nice. Install was very easy and they make in and out of the truck easy. They look great on the truck, and stand out because there really nothing else like then. They do stick out a little bit, so you have to be careful in tight spaces and they would be a no go for rock crawling. I'm a little disappointed that the powder coating has chipped off in a big piece on one of the clamps that goes on the rock rail, but I admit my truck gets a lot of use so it may not be typical. Overall, I'm satisfied but not overjoyed
