I am very happy with this ramp. I think the only negative comment is that it might pinch your fingers, but this has not been a problem for me at all. It is very sturdy and the rubber coating on the surface makes it easy for my Lab to go up and down without slipping. If you are looking for a ramp this is a very good one.
The Petstep II Multi-Purpose Dog Sately Ramp was perfect for getting my black Lab, Blake, out of the water and over our sea wall. He is over 90 pounds and it was sturdy and supported his weight. He is very appreciative and so am I!
I would highly recommend this product and the seller selling it.
This product is great if it will be stationary but I found it difficult to set up everytime I put my shepard into our suv. He goes with us everywhere. I found the ramp to be bulky and heavy. With twins in the car as well, there is not much room to bring the ramp with us - wherever we go.
Good sturdy ramp supports a lot of weight and gives great traction to the animal but it is difficult and ackward to fold up and takes up a lot of room in the car. I would love this product if it came in a telescoping version.
I bought mine 4 yrs ago, so I may have the previous incarnation. The handle broke off almost immediately, which made the ramp extremely unwieldy for a short plump middle-aged woman to work with. Then the cotter pin got lost. My English mastiff did like using it at first; now however, at 12 yrs old, he can't see the edges of the ramp & stumbles over the sides unless I guide each footstep. It needs to be wider for giant breeds; he's on the small side for a mastiff -- 160 lbs & 27" tall. So be aware of what the design drawbacks may be. I now can use only one half of the ramp & that's really too steep an angle for my boy getting in & out of my Honda Odyssey. And I'm sorry, but 19 lbs is NOT LIGHTWEIGHT!! Not when you're hauling it in & out of a van!
It is solid, sturdy, and safe for our dogs to walk up and down from our bed and up to and off of our furniture. I can clean it easily. It has a good grip for the dogs footing. For the price and quality it is a great buy!
Although this product is relatively lightweight, it is too short and therefore too steep for use out the back end of a minivan. My dog won't walk up or down it. It would have been nice if it was longer and folded up or expanded.
The pet ramp is basically as described on the web site & has good traction but is too short for my needs. I needed it to help my maltese get up on my bed by herself but she has bad hips & can not manage the steepness. I wish it either came with some kind of folding short legs on the floor end of the ramp or an attachment that would raise the bottom end up 4-6". I also would prefer it about 4" less in width. Otherwise the ramp is sturdy & well made. Thank You, Rena
I use your ramp to help my old dog into my bed, into the bathtub and into my van- he would have had to spend his last years on the floor without the ramp. He can't make it up if its too steep so I devised a lower plastic stool leading to a plastic ice chest. I would love it if you designed a platform to go with your ramp to graduate the steepness. Thanks- I am shocked that something I bought was actually helpful and not that expensive either.
