So far I'm very happy with this product

So far I'm very happy with this product. I have 3 very large dogs (1 German Shepherd and 2 Great Danes) and my German Shepherd was recently diagnosed with elbow dysplasia. To save my back from lifting it up and then out of our 4Runner I bought this one. I also expect it to be easier on my back as my Great Danes slow down as they age and are no longer able to jump on their own. The three photos I posted show the steps unfolded, removed and with steps removed. To fold the steps, pull the black…

Pros
  • Impressive
Cons
  • Out of fashion

Lifeguard on my back!

Worked great! I'll admit the assembly instructions were a bit confusing, but I was able to put this together with no problems. I got this for my lab mix who will soon be ten years old. I recently went on an expedition and started resetting it but it couldn't jump in the back. It's too high for her old ass. She hopped on her front paws and I had to pick her up the rest of the way. It's not always fun when her tummy is dirty. With it I just go down the stairs quickly and she can easily run up…

Pros
  • Permanent test results
Cons
  • Can't remember

Much better than a ramp

My dog has arthritis in his hips and wrists so his vet recommended a ramp to get in and out of the car (Mazda CX-5). I once had a ramp for another dog and didn't want to mess with him anymore. They take up too much space, are heavy and bulky, and when you set them up, the dog jumps or jumps. I resigned myself to lifting and lifting them forever until I saw this ladder. They are easy to insert into the tow bar and the assembly instructions are clear. Operation is also simple, but two hands are…

good, but in the end a bad crotch design was its downfall.

First of all, I would like to say that it does not work as it should for long; This is a good basic step for your dog. I had a few issues with it, however: First, the plastic steps are only rated for two hundred pounds. So if you have two large dog breeds fighting for first place in a car, this might not be the best move. I regularly had over two hundred pound dogs on these steps and they wobbled badly from all the weight. Add an active 8- or 10-year-old to the steps and it gets a little…

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Useless functions

Requires modification for smaller receiver

**Update** I need to fire my big guy from SD duties so I bought a pup. The steps are PERFECT for both as the bottom step is low enough off the ground that my old man can still use it and the pup is not scared. I can't say enough good things about these steps. I'm pretty sure I sold a dozen for the company ;) The steps are great and I love the non slip surface. My dog was reluctant to use them because there was a large gap (9"+) between the top plate and my bumper due to the adapter I had to use

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled
