BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] 1. Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention relates to a foldable step exerciser, and more particularly to a step exerciser which is easy to fold for storage. [0003] 2. Description of the Related Art [0004] A first conventional step exerciser has a base and two seats symmetrically provided on the base. Two pedals, each of which has two wings formed thereon, are respectively provided on the seats and two resistance members are respectively pivotally mounted between each pedal and the base. A holder is mounted on rear ends of the seats and has a plat received therein. Two interlock members are respectively mounted between each wing and one of two ends of the plat. The wings are respectively driven by the interlock members via the plat so that the pedals can be moved up and down, or right and left for an user to step. However, the first conventional step exerciser has a large volume and can not be folded thereby difficult to move or store and occupies a large space. [0005] A second conventional step exerciser has a base, a pulley mounted in a front end of the base, and two pedals pivotally and respectively mounted on two sides of the base. A pressure cylinder is provided between the two pedals and the base. A rope is wrapped around the pulley and connected to the pedals so that the pedals are moved up and down via being driven by the rope. However, the rope must be detached from the pulley to fold and store the second conventional step exerciser. [0006] Therefore, the invention provides a folded step exerciser to mitigate or obviate the aforementioned problems. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0007] The main objective of the present invention is to provide a foldable step exerciser which is easy to fold and store. [0008] Other objectives, advantages and novel features of the invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description when taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS [0009] FIG. 1 is an exploded perspective view of a foldable step exerciser in accordance with the present invention; [0010] FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view of a driving member of the foldable step exerciser in FIG. 1; [0011] FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the foldable step exerciser in FIG. 1; [0012] FIG. 4 is a side view in partial section of the foldable step exerciser in FIG. 1; [0013] FIG. 5 is a first operational side view of the foldable step exerciser in FIG. 1; [0014] FIG. 6 is a second operational side view of the foldable step exerciser in FIG. 1; [0015] FIG. 7 is a first perspective view of the foldable step exerciser in FIG. 1 in a folded condition; [0016] FIG. 8 is a second perspective view of the foldable step exerciser in FIG. 1 in a folded condition; [0017] FIG. 9 is a side view of the foldable step exerciser in FIG. 1 in a folded condition; [0018] FIG. 10 is a perspective of the foldable step exerciser in FIG. 1 provided with shells; and [0019] FIG. 11 is a side view of the foldable step exerciser with the shells in FIG. 10 in a folded condition. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT [0020] With reference to FIGS. 1-4, a folded step exerciser comprises a base (10), two pedal members (20) symmetrically provided in two sides of the base (10), and an interlock member (30) mounted in the base (10) and connected to the pedal members (20).
