Decent construction- small - for a 5-6 yr old- I would say it will last a while- I have had it for about 6 monthsStickers are worthless- not weatherproof

Well I bought it for my grandson 2 years ago (he's was 6 at the time) and he stills uses it, but the only thing wrong with it is he said it was for little kids ( he's quite athletic) meaning it was to low for him. Hope this helps you out!!

It was for an 8 year old boy for his March birthday. He does not lose it a lot. So far, it is just fine - no problems.

Ours still works, it's not a heavily used item. They ride bikes and scooters on it as well as remote controll car launch pad! My kids are twin 9 year old boys and a 8 year old girl. Id say they uses once to twice a month.

I use the ramps to load the largest DR brush mower (18.5HP) into a F350, also have loaded a Honda Foreman ATV numerous times. I'm sure the ramps could take twice the weight I put on them, they have worked good.

I bought it for my father who's 5'. He likes it a lot. I haven't heard him mentioning about ramp problem.

i buy enough cushion grip to last a year. its cheaper that way. as long as the tube isn't opened it will ladt several years. an openef tube will last several months maybe.

Six steps may be a bit long. Will depend on your steps. I recommend that you measure it out. The ramp is plastic and should weather the elements well.

Well, I've used it for as long as 20 minutes. It's a good workout, 20 minutes on this thing. I've never felt the need to go back after it cools off.

They will chew on it and it won't last forever but it does help them get a grip on slick ramps. We used it with a different cage and when he was young he needed them or he couldn't grip the slick plastic ramps to climb to different levels.

I think it will last a couple years. My grandson is hard on scooters and had to send a few back but this one is built well so I think it will last.

We actually use this sometimes to secure rubber feet on some of our equipment. However it won't be permanent, but may be as permanent as superglue or another glue (I haven't found anything that really holds those feet permanently!). Probably last a 3-6 months , or more, mainly depending on use. The tape does eventually loose it's grip.

The main parts are of something similar to press board or MDF. The ramps are plastic. It has held up well with my 3yr old and 6yr old. Just had to replace one ramp when he tried to climb it early on last Christmas. Worth the money to us.

The anti-skid surface is 3M (or similar) sheet that has an adhesive back. If left exposed to the sun and rain, the adhesive can, over time tend to get moisture underneath and may fail. If you can turn the ramp over so that the anti-skid surface is down, then it should last a long time. Also, if left outside with the anti-skid surface up, there is a tendency for foreign material to get between the sliding parts and make it harder to retract and extend. If it is upside down, then this should not be as much of a problem. It is a very good product that we have used several years.

It is really sturdy, it would be fine on gravel. The ramps are only a foot high.

Hard to say how long they will last as that depends on the surface of the floor (the smoother the longer they will last, the rougher, the quicker they will wear, think of sand paper wearing them down). Ours are 6 months old on stools used at a kitchen island on a new smooth hardwood floor, so slid multiple times per day and so far they look almost as good as new, with slight crushing, but that would be expected with felt from day one when it gets compressed the first time. For the price, and how they are holding up so far I would recommend them. Take it for what it is worth, but I am an electrical engineer who works with electrical and non-electrical consumer products.

No offense, but if you would read probably every question asked on these ramps, I have answered with the same answer MANY times and every time. This time I am just going to say...read answers to previous questions....the answer is always the same and will be the same for your question

Pretty much none. Its just sliding the ramps onto to rubber hinges and sticking on the pads which are just foam tape.

Seems a little fast to me. Mine lasted a good 4 years and that was with a fair amount of abuse going sideways on a slope. The replacements are cheap though and seem to be as good as original. Maybe not the best wheels especially in terms of traction,but easy and cheap to replace.

The weight of the ramp itself seems to keep it in place. We've had one in place for at least 6 months and have never had an issue. Our doorsill upon which it rests does have several ridges and that may also help.
