Questions & Answers
This isn't going to help a sick dog. Our 12-pound dog was terrified of the wobble on her first attempt and refused to try again.
The stairs were purchased for a 9-pound cat, but after handling them, I do not believe they are suitable for a 75-pound dog.
Yikes. I have prime and had points, so I'm not sure how much shipping will cost.
Selected User Reviews For Zinus 2 Step Easy Pet Stairs/Pet Ramp/Pet Ladder
Without hesitation, my pound yorkie climbs into my 28" high bed (see photo). He was apprehensive at first, but after three days, he felt much better. He uses it without asking after four training trials. The top "stair" is 10" high, and the distance between the top stair and my bed is 10", which appears to be no problem for my pet, so I would advise buyers to take this into consideration, as I believe the more stairs, the less likely the pet will use it. In the end, this is a high-quality product.
65 pounds is the weight of my bulldog. and these stairwells are strong enough to support her weight! She climbs it without difficulty, and it only took two or three attempts to get her to do it on her own. I'm a huge fan of this item: It certainly helps to keep my back in good shape!.
He trots right up to my bed on these new stairs, no slipping, no problem, they're perfect!.
We have a bench at the foot of the bed, but he believes that using it detracts from the fun. br>He began crying and whimpering out of nowhere three weeks ago, with no apparent injury. We were told he had to use stairs and ramps after a $500 vet visit, or we'd be back for the same thing, if not worse. br>The three-step stairs are perfectly aligned with the bench and have a non-slip pattern on the bottom so they don't slide around as you descend them. Because our dog is only 16 pounds, the stairs do not squish down when he walks down them, but I can imagine a much larger dog doing so. br>Our dog takes the stairs the majority of the time, but he still needs to be reminded to do so. 'br>Food can also be used to encourage people to use the stairs. EDIT: br>br> June 26, 2018br>I'm glad the cover has a plastic backing because my dog peed on his stairwell today. Although some urine had soaked through into the bottom step foam, I dabbed it with a damp, soapy towel and left it to dry outside, and it now smells much better.
The stairwell is appealing to me. My dog feels the same way! They'll only be used on the couch for her. She still insists on being lifted onto the bed when I bring them into the bedroom, but I'm happy that she'll use them on the couch all the time. Because my beagle has a hip replacement, I don't want her to put too much strain on it. It took her some time to adjust to the memory foam, but once she realized they were still strong enough for her (40 pounds), she began to use them.
My 11lb. Chi mix was initially apprehensive about using her newly installed stairwell. After bribing her with a small treat for a few days, she now uses them on a regular basis. She's been jumping on and off of my very high bed since she was old enough to do so. I tried other stairwells, but my dog was adamant about not going up them. This time, however, the stairs are SOFT, and my dog enjoys the sensation. These stairs are well worth the money. Both my dog and I are in a good mood.
This four-step unit has been in my possession for exactly one week, and it appears to be in good working order - It wasn't spectacular, but it wasn't bad either. br>br>I bought this for my corgi puppy so she could get on and off my bed by herself. She climbs fairly well, but she has some difficulty descending. Corgis are short and long dogs, similar to dachshunds but slightly larger, so these steps might be too difficult for her. I'm hoping that with practice and time, she'll improve. br>br>Failure: br>The anti-slip bottom does not appear to be working for me. I have hardwood floors, and the steps are far too easy to slide around on. Pepper can easily wedge her snoot between the stairwell and my bed, pushing the stairwell away without even trying. Simply having her use the steps causes them to shift on the floor, which is potentially dangerous. I had to wedge them between my bed and the wall to make room for them. For long dogs such as corgis and dachshunds, the individual steps are a little steep. Good: br>br> br>The height is a perfect match for a bed's height. Unlike similarly priced items, the inside skeleton is constructed of thick foam rather than cardboard. I weigh around 145 pounds and can easily stand on it, so it appears to be of good quality in my opinion. br>It's quite attractive, though I'm not sure how well the outer fabric will hold up over time, particularly with chewing dogs. br>Because the unit is lightweight, it can easily be moved from one room to another. br>br>Overall, I'm pleased with my purchase.
I chose this item because of its advertised 17-inch width, as opposed to the same manufacturer's less expensive 13-inch width. The item arrived earlier than expected, was simple to put together in less than three minutes, and was sturdy. Since my dog (14 years old), all of this has been relegated to "so what. " 75 lbs) refuses to use it in the same way that he uses the larger unit in his bedroom. br>br>Size was falsely advertised.
