Mine has a slight rise up area between the floor and front deck so the step up to the deck isn’t bad. But from the back deck to the floor is a pretty long drop. Either step on the bench seat or way across it to the floor. I use the throwable cushion on the seat to keep from damaging the upholstery. I need to find some one who makes an escalator to go from the back deck to the floor!
And best wishes on speedy recovery and great results from the knee replacement.
It’s hard to stumble when you’re on your knees.
