Sandstone Stairs are a stair block made from sandstone. They are crafted from Sandstone, Chiseled Sandstone, or Cut Sandstone, and can be placed facing different directions. They can also be waterlogged.

Players mine Sandstone Stairs with a pickaxe, and the block drops itself when broken. They are used to build steps and slopes in sandstone structures.
