Suits these stages
- Who it’s for
- Getting a stiff dog into an SUV or estate — 62 inches, folding to 31, rated to 150 lb and weighing only ten.
- Who should skip it
- Your dog is broad or nervous. Several owners find it too narrow for larger dogs.
The verdict
The default car ramp, and the numbers explain why: 62 inches of length folding in half to 31, ten pounds to lift, and a 150-pound weight rating. That combination is what makes it get used — a ramp you can pull out and deploy one-handed while holding a leash is a ramp that comes out every time, and a heavy one lives in the garage. High-traction treads, side rails and rubber feet, with a safety latch for the fold. Owners consistently report it working well for older dogs and being stable under an 80-pound dog, with the one recurring complaint being width for larger dogs. Measure your dog's stance and think about whether they will feel secure. Train it flat on the ground first, over a week, before you need it.
Drawbacks
- Narrow for broad or nervous dogs, per owners
- 62 inches is a shallow angle only for lower vehicles
