Perfect Stairs!!

I bought this app several years ago and had perfect results the first time I used it (1st time ever building stairs!) Super easy to use and I had no issues at all.

Now we’re 2024 and I just opened the app to build stairs on my new deck and had the stringer plans done effectively in just a few minutes. I marked the stringers and had them cut out moments later.

I love this app and some of the best few dollars I ever spent. 👏👏👏👏👍👍

12 foot limit for the total rise

I purchased it and can not complete my project since it limits your rise at 12 feet. Total waste of money.

Response from developer

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback on our Delux Stairs. We genuinely appreciate your input and understand your concern regarding the limitation on the total rise of stairs that can be calculated. We would like to explain that this limitation is not arbitrary but is based on the International Building Code (IBC), which sets the maximum rise of a single stair flight at 12 feet. Our aim is to ensure that the designs produced by our application comply with these widely accepted safety standards. We understand how this limitation might be frustrating for projects requiring a rise greater than 12 feet and are continuously looking for ways to improve our application to meet the diverse needs of our users. Your feedback is invaluable in this process, and we will consider how we might accommodate more varied project requirements in future updates.

Don’t waste your money!!!

They should let you test it first.
I want my money back!

Straight stairs only!

I bought the app because I was mislead by the screenshots and believed I would be able to calculate for winder stairs... not the case! The app seems very user friendly, but I could figure out basic rise and run with the calculator on my phone. I am very disappointed

Not fully customizable

Many fields were not customizable or accurate enough. does not seem like a “deluxe” app or worth 5 or 6$.

Keeps crashing

I purchased this app with the hopes of it working, but it keeps crashing. I tried restarting my phone, deleting & reinstalling the app. I still get the same results. Unfortunately there is no “Contact Us” on your website. I would like a refund for this app.
Thanks in Advance

We're extremely sorry you are having crashing problems with Delux Stairs. As this is the first time we have seen this type of behavior, it would be extremely helpful to work with you to determine the cause. We've added a "Contact Delux" link on the website. Please contact Delux through that link so we can work directly with you to determine what is going wrong and hopefully get the app working for you. Refunds are handled by Apple. Instructions on applying for a refund can be found here: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204084

Overall starting with it

I would like a big fix!! When you get to the plans, from my phone I can only email myself. I would like to see a PRINT button so I can print from the app and not go into email to retrieve. Makes sense.

Thank you for purchasing Delux Stairs and providing such valuable feedback. It does make sense to add the ability to print; so we did. Our newest version has a shiny new "Print" button right next to the "Email" button.

The best

Love this app, however I wish you could view the plans in the app without e-mailing them! Dumb! I’d love to just print from the App.

Thank you, complete construction, for your purchase and review. We’ve now added the ability to print the plans directly from in-app to any AirPrint-compatible printer.

Such s great app.

Excellent app. I’ve had it for a couple months and love it.

Can’t create pdf

Thank you for your purchase. We are sorry you are having trouble creating a PDF. Our newest version squashes a bug that could affect the ability to create PDFs. Hopefully this will solve your issue. Please let us know in either case.

Good but a few remaining bugs

The "email plan to" doesn't work; the app crashes. Share option instead would be nice. There is no adjustments available for the risers thickness (I know you can compensate with the run width). On the positive side, neat interface, lot of details and nice plan.

Shares a common fault

All the stair calculators seem to share a common fault for layout of the stringers - they ASSUME the stringer stops one riser below the final elevation.
On the project I have, there is a tread AT the final elevation, so the stringer needs to be 4 risers high, not 3.
The only workaround I have found is to start estimating riser height, then add that to the final elevation. Then keep mucking around with the numbers until it all comes out correctly. Big PIA
It should be a simple addition to add a selection “Final Tread At Elevation”
Also - Online Help is a dead link. So NO online help & no instructions.

Thank you for purchasing Delux Stairs and providing this valuable feedback. The online help system was down for far too long; but it has now been fixed. We are looking into adding a "Final Tread At Elevation" feature for the next major release.

Perfect for the job

I’m a carpenter mainly finish, facing a stair job and needing some help and direction. This app does all the hard stuff. It’s super clear, and WELL WORTH THE INVESTMENT if you need this type of information.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT

In short time I have the totals for all
The needed calculations and lengths to purchase and start cutting. Changes are easy to make and prints are emailed easily to an address.

👍👍Thank you!!
I’m no longer intimidated on the needs of my next project

hank you for the amazing review; and for purchasing the app. You could not have described our goals for Delux Stairs any better.

Average at best.

Won't allow riser or stringer thicknesses to be set. Can get same from free apps.

Crashes upon email

The app seems to do its basic job, but it crashes when I try to email a finished plan to myself. That is, pressing the email link crashes it immediately. iPhone 6s+, up to date. The developer only accepts support messages through Tumblr. What!? I'm not hopeful.

Thank you for your purchase and valuable feedback. We are sorry the app crashed on your iPhone 6s+. The newest version has fixed a bug in the email system, as well as providing direct printing functionality. Hopefully this will fix your issue. We are in the process of improving our online services.

Limited

Need to create stairs outside the parameters of the program. Need a refund and there's no way to contact the vendor.

I need stairs for my elderly mom with a 2 inch rise from a 16 inch total rise. Can't do it with this version. I don't need this program if it can't do what I need. The smallest total rise is 17.5 inches.

Close to being good

Doesn't offer other options like building with steel stringers instead of wood. Also can't compile more than one stair plan at a time, have to email each PDF individually.

Also no way to contact the developer, their website doesn't work.

App hasn't been updated in 3 years, would be great to get some of the features I mentioned.

In short, waste of $5, find a different stair calculator to use.
