Pet Gear Easy Step III Pet Stairs, 3 Step for Cats/Dogs, Removable Washable Carpet Treads, for Pets Up to 150lbs, No Tools Required, Available in 6 Colors

I researched a great deal of pet stairs before I purchased this set. I measured how high my bed was and noted that this seemed to have a lot of good reviews, not just on Amazon but on other Web Sites as well. I purchased these because my dog has luxating patellas which means that his knee caps go in and out of place. He has to have surgery soon but he will always have arthritis no matter what. He is 8 years old. It took about ten minutes and my dog uses these stairs consistently to get up and down from the bed. I notice that he does this whether or not I am in the room. He was very easy to train because he is very much a treat-lover, and obviously he has knee pain and seems to be keen on the fact that the stairs are much easier on him than the impact from getting up and down. It should be noted that I have a 4 year old dog who loathes these stairs. After a few weeks with them, she is just now coming around to using them here and there to get up and down. My hope is that she'll recognize they are better for her in the long run as well, and I will also continue to use positive reinforcement with training. When she was a puppy she was afraid of the stairs coming up to the second floor (I live in a town house.) Some dogs are just going to have issues there and will need to be worked with more until they are comfortable. As for the quality of the stairs, I would say they are very well made. They are sturdy on a carpeted floor. I have my doubts that they would be as sturdy on a hardwood or tiled floor because they are plastic. However, I have them on a carpeted floor and my dog is a little under 20lbs. The stairs are not wobbly, but I do check them often to see if things shift. That can happen with any kind of furniture and so far they are solid. The carpet on the stairs is thin but real. Ultimately, I think this is why my dog took so well to them. My vet suggested wooden stairs but for ones that don't even reach this high they were double in price. I am also not certain that just because they are wooden they would be any more sturdy than these are. These are made of a nice, super thick plastic. These stairs are a quality product at the price offered. It took about ten minutes to put them together, and my dog adjusted to them perfectly. I would recommend them to anyone who needs pet stairs as long as they are going to use them on a carpeted floor.

I researched extensively and decided on these. The Pet Gear Easy Step III stairs are very well made and sturdy, they are hard plastic and easy to clean and the carpet pads on each step help traction and come off for cleaning. They were very easy to put together, although because I have arthritis I needed help pushing hard enough to pop some parts in their slots. The construction reminds me of the Fischer Price big toys like the car and other large items that last for years. The steps are wide and deep enough to be safe. The Pet Gear stairs are perfect for my daughter's 10 year old Pomeranian who has some back problems. He sleeps with my daughter and can not get up or off the bed like his little brothers. Because he is now on special food for a kidney stone he has frequent urination and a few times has had accidents on the bed. (I also purchased the Dogit Training Pad Holder and pads on Amazon to put on the floor so he has a place to urinate if he has to during the night) The steps are tilted a little which makes them kinda scary at first because the dogs feel like they are going to slip, but they have carpeting and once he got used to them, Nigel uses them all the time. I'm not sure why they are tilted but maybe it makes it easier for some dogs to get up. Her 9 year old chihuahua won't use them at all. I like the three step because it goes right to the top of the mattress. It is a high pillow-top, so the steps may be too high for a regular mattress. The Easy Step III stairs have changed the little guy's life. Very happy with this purchase for my Grand-pup.

Because my bed is higher than average, my 25# Shih-Apso was starting to have a difficult time getting up and down from a smaller set of stairs. After tons of research, I chose these stairs. As usual, Amazon had them at my door quickly. I was able to put them together in about fifteen minutes. I did use a rubber mallet to make sure the pieces were in tight. It took some amount of bribery and coaching before he would try to go up them. They are very stable and when he finally realized they were easy to climb, he went right up. I think the slant of the steps is a bit more than necessary. It seemed to make him uneasy. He is fine with them now. I have mine on carpet and they don't slip. I don't think I would put them on bare floors. I think the weight rating must be accurate. I saw the cable guy step on them and they didn't budge. :-) Be aware that they do stick out into the room a bit. I highly recommend these pet stairs.

I bought these steps mainly for one of our Shelties who has been recently diagnosed with a joint conditon which doesn't allow her to do the jumping she used to do. Those these steps are designed for larger dogs, and my Shelties are all approx 20 lbs, some a little less, some a little more....but these steps are larger and sturdier than some of the ones designed for small dogs which is something I was looking for. They do not wobble and the dogs are very comfortable using them. They have removable carpet pieces on each step which is great as once the carpet wears out it would be easy to make something to replace them with. The stairs themselves are made out of very thick plastic, reminds me of the little tykes childens outside play furniture, they are slightly hard to snap together but that's a good thing as once they are snapped together they are firmly in place and makes the whole unit very solid and stable. Although bought for the one dog, the others all quickly decided it was way better to use their new steps rather than trying to jump up on the bed. These are a taller set of steps, would be too tall for a couch but are perfect for our tall bed. They also come in a variation with only two steps that I'm planning to buy for use with the couch. Well worth the price, these steps will last for years and my dogs love them. My dogs didn't require any "training" to use them, I simply put one of them on the steps and patted the bed and they ran up, and with my gang it's a matter of monkey see, monkey do, once one used them, they all quickly decided by the end of the day to all use the steps. However with a dog who is more Leary of such objects, it would be easy to train with these steps by putting a small treat on each step and on the bed and coaxing them to follow the trail. Because they are nice larger steps, small dogs feel more secure using them as they wont fall off easily. Looking forward to using these for many years.

Our dogs are getting older, and were starting to struggle to get up to our bed. They are all only about 12 lbs, Chihuahua & Shih Tzu mixes. They had been using a foot stool to get up & down from our (about 26 inches high) and Brea was starting to not come up, even at night, because she was afraid to jump up and/or down. When we got these steps, Coco mastered them almost immediately! Brea took a little longer, being a little more afraid of falling off I think, but after just a few days she was good too, and is back to running up them to sleep on the bed even by herself without encouragement, during the day when we are in the office working (working from home) and she doesn't hesitate to come up to bed at night! They are light weight, which makes them easy to move (not that we do, but we could), they were easy to put together, plastic"y", but the pieces just snap into each other, and there is space under the steps with an open back on that side. We keep 'diapers' for our oldest dog in that space, along with the rubber gloves, and other stuff that we need to care for him (he is 16 years old and incontinent at this point, frail, etc...) Great little extra storage nook bonus. So, our dogs are little, but if your dogs are heavier, I think these steps would still be a great, affordable solution. Thank you for such a great, affordable solution to our aging fur babies!

Good set of stairs for a dog with no medical issues...maybe. The stairs came quickly and seemed to be of good quality. Assembled them in 5 minutes and spent a few minutes teaching my Papillion how to use them. He initially did not like them and refused to use them without a chewable reward. After he used them a few times I thought he may have gotten used to them. Wrong. He was only using them to please me. Once there was no luring him up to the bed with a chewable he chose to stay on the floor. The main problem in my view is the slant of the stairs, and the lack of full carpet coverage on the steps. Unless he was able to plant his paws squarely on the carpeted steps he would slip a little bit as he went up and down. Nothing worse than the sound of paw claws scraping on the stairs on the way up or down. He never fell off the stairs when he went up and down, just a bit of a slip, and he was uncomfortable with that. Combine that with the slant of the stairs, going down mainly, and he wanted no part of it. I would recommend getting a set of steps that are fully carpeted and consider the slant as well. We returned the product and got the Topmart High Density Foam Dog Steps, which were considerable more expensive, but worked well. So much, we bought another set for the front room. Disclosure - Our dog had back surgery a while back (herniated disk) but has healed and is active....but may lack physical confidence.

After trying a few other types of pet stairs and ramps, I was about to give up and figure I'd have to get up and pick up my old boy whenever he "needed" up on my bed. Yup, he's 13, and spoiled, so there's no way of convincing him that being up with me isn't a life or death matter :-). Then I saw these steps on Amazon and the three step height was perfect for me as the top step is just a couple of steps lower than the top of my mattress. The steps are covered with carpet pieces which Velcro in place and easily remove to be washed if necessary. This helps the pet to feel more secure in their grip when climbing as opposed to some models which felt slick and they basically refused. They're deep enough to make climbng the steps quite comfortable and easy for my old fellow. I really think these steps would work for a wide range of dog sizes. My dogs are both 20-25 lbs and I can see where a much smaller or much bigger dog would find them easy to use because the step size facilitates that. Even my cats have decided to use them. Also, after trying several other types with no success for various reasons, my dogs, even the old guy that I really needed this for, figured out how to comfortably use these steps within a day or two and quickly got over any fear of using them. Luring them with a treat and a little coaxing didn't hurt either! But the point is, no bribery was working till we got this set. We've had these at least six months now, and they're very sturdy (I sometimes use it as a step stool even) and show no signs of wear. They're very easy to clean and don't really take up much room. I've attached two photos, and tried to get one of him coming up the stairs, but he does it so fast with such agility now that I couldn't get one that wasn't blurry. So I decided to attach it anyway to make the point of how well these work for him!! :-)

I have a 4-month-old Puggle Puppy that loves to sleep at the foot of the bed, but needs help to get up and down! I'm worried he will try jumping down on his own and break a leg!!! My bed sits 24 inches from the floor to the top of the mattress. I tried using a kitchen step stool but he refuses to go down it. I haven't been able to get much sleep because I need to listen if he whines to get down to go outside to go potty! This was an answer to a prayer for me!!! I followed other reviews and just followed the pictures, not the letters on the parts!!!! It went together with no problem and is VERY sturdy! Since he is still pretty small the carpet on the steps seems ok for now. If it does become an issue when he gets bigger I think I will order peel-and-stick carpet squares, sold on Amazon individually or small quantities, and cut them in strips to add to the borders of the steps. I have hardwood floors and the rubber legs grip very well! I tried using training treats to coax him up, then down the steps. Within 5 minutes he was venturing up and down on his own! YAY!!! The first night with the stairs, I heard him wake up at about 2 AM and watched as he walked down the steps and went out the doggy door! About 15 minutes later he came back inside and up the steps, cuddled at the foot of the bed, and went back to sleep! YAY!!

Great product .easy to assemble looks clean and smart . Unfortunately my dog refuses to use it at the moment, the steps are a little steep for him but shall persevere 😃

So können auch die Kleinen Fellnasen sicher aufs und wieder runter vom Bett ohne springen zu müssen. Schont definitiv die Gelenke..die Teppe ist hoch und breit genug für Bullys..

La scaletta è veramente solida, si monta in 5 minuti, la stoffa che è sugli scalini permette ai cani di non scivolare, si può staccare nel caso in cui si avesse bisogno di lavarla e sulla base della scaletta ci sono delle tacche antiscivolo quindi rimane perfettamente immobile. Se proprio devo fare una critica, avrei fatto l'altezza degli scalini qualche cm in meno. La spedizione è arrivata un giorno prima! Chiaramente ci vuole qualche giorno prima che i cani si abituano ad usarla, con qualche premietto si convingono velocemente😉

I have two small dogs who need assistance to get on the beds. I was using a regular kitchen step but they would slip sometimes or get nervous of it and it started to be me who put them on the beds all the time. I was determined to find a solution. I went online and found these steps. I thought the price was very reasonable. When they arrived at my door, I was so pleasantly surprised to see how easy they were to assemble. It's just a matter of clicking a few pieces together. This is good too for portability. If you need to take the stairs with you, you can just as easily disassemble them. It took a few days for the two dogs to get the hang of them but now they are up and down those stairs like nobody's business. The stairs are sturdy and stable. The stairs slant slightly forward so that the dog can easily see where he is going and feel secure when using them. My dogs are very pleased and have stopped asking for assistance! Yay!

Resiste muy bien el peso de mi amigo Pedro de raza Pug. (Pesa 10.200 kg) Queda exactamente a la altura de mi cama king size. Fácil de armar y el material es de buena calidad. La recomiendo. Precio y calidad aceptable.
