Wii Fit Step

I use the free step on my Wii a lot and was wondering about purchasing the Step accessory that will elevate the board to increase the intensity. Have any of you used this? If so I was wondering what everyone thought of it. Does it increase the calorie burn or does that not register?

Thanks!

    The Wii Fit won't know you are stepping up higher, so it won't calculate the calories any different. I bought one of the lifts, and its not as stable as I like. I would prefer to just put it on top of my aerobic step, but since my aerobic step is 6" at its lowest, its way too high. Its definitely worth graduating to a higher step whichever way you go to increase your intensity, though.

    I love mine! But I use an HRM (Polar F6!) instead of Wii. In fact, I find with the higher step, the Wii calculates fewer of my steps ...
